Since there was some european tube radio talk on the '60s color TV thread,time for a foreign tube radio thread!
Heres the ones i have:
-Ca.mid 50s"ducaret thomson"-french made big multiband,it in very decent shape but
needs some electronics repair.
-1958 "lowe opta"-german multiband,pretty beat up but may fix anyway
-1958 "blaupunkt"big tabletop Hifi multiband-basicly works,but has some selector
switch problems
-1959"telefunken"large floor model stereo multiband phono HiFi-plays through the
phono,but only AM works.Cost me $5,no one wanted it-too big+bulky apparently...
-1962 japanese 5-tube AM
-1963 "national"(matsushita)japanese turquoise plastic 5-tube
-1966"EI"-yugoslav wooden tabletop multiband-works intermittant,selector switch
problems...
-1976 "kantana"-russian multiband phono mono medium size HiFi-stands on 4 wooden
legs.Electronics and construction are a lot like late '50s european radios,set
usually works good but does have selector switch problems...Had this sent to me
from Chisnau moldova LOL
Most of the european radios,including the russian one,have multiple voltage
options on the back panel-including a position for 127v,they seem to work good
on US 115-120v
