nordmende: 3/612; Elektra C

Hi....I am somewhat new to the site and have a question regarding a Normende Elektra C which as I understand it was German produced for the USA. I need the schematic for a restoration project and se that there is none posted but assume that there must have been a similar model that will have a schematic posted that was poduced for distribution in Gerrmany. Can anyone help. Thanks

Dear Victor,

The only model which shows similar shape of cabinet, chassis view and tube lineup is the Nordmende model Elektra 4/613. An advanced search for all Elektras between 1960 and 1966 with activated picture gallery gives a fast result.

The circuitries should be comparable, main differences are power supply (line transfomer) and the fact that your radio has other wave bands and frequency ranges. The German version ends at 104 MHz for the FM band, yours has 2x SW but no long wave. The U.S. model has two additional tweeters. It's worth trying to work with these documents, they should be useful for your restoring projekt.

Bernhard
