I have a Ross FM/Am portable radio, in its original box, with a receipt from 1969. It still works too. Do you have any idea if there is a market for this and if so, what it might be worth today?

That's a nice looking Ross radio, but it's probably not going to bring big bucks if sold. To determine its value, my suggestion is to search for "Ross radio" on eBay and select the preference to show completed listings.
I just did that search and found a very nice Ross radio similar to Jessica's that sold yesterday for less than $15 (eBay item 360281237084). Of course, Jessica's radio may be worth more to a collector because it's in its original box.

Jessica, it all depends on how many collectors are interested in that model. I don't think Ross was a particularly high-end brand.
Personally, I own Sonys, Panasonics, Zeniths, etc. but I also like a lot of "off-brand" models. Right now, I'm listening to classical music on a "Reader's Digest" AM/FM/SW/cassette portable (!) and it sounds very good. If you want to sell your Ross and it has some outstanding qualities, like great sound or outstanding reception (hears a lot of stations), you might want to mention that fact in the ad. Start with a low opening bid and see what happens.
