? bush: Bush TR82/97 and TR82/B differences
Hello, are there differences (circuit, mechanics, loudspeaker, etc) between my Bush TR82/B ( see last 5 pictures on this "page" ) and the 82/97 version?

They are only related by case style and badge. Completely different insides and not actually the same company. The TR82/97 case and badge was copied from a particular example of a real TR92, hence the 1997 version all have the slightly bent U. The '97 version is a "modern" (though now old) Retro styled radio copying the case of the 1960s model that's a real Bush.

Also your TR82/B is probably just a later version of the 1997 Retro model, maybe even by another later company. The Bush label has been owned by quite a few companies. Argos (then part of G.U.S.) bought it off Harvard International and even sold Bush branded washing machines. UK Sainsbury Supermarket then bought Argos.
