I am restoring a Philips BX330A. Doing some research about this model, I found there are at least three variants of this model:

- BX330A

- BX330A-64

- BX330A-32

My set is a BX330A-64. The BX330A (without suffix) has three bands (LW, MW and only one SW band) while the BX330A-64 has four bands (LW, MW and two SW bands). The RF section has quite different: the BX330A-64 is much closer to the BX350A (with only minor differences).

We may say, loosely speaking, the BX330A-64 has the RF section of an BX350A and an audio section inherited from the regular BX330. I am reconstructing those schematics and hope to post them here soon.

In the BX330A pictures we can find the two types (just count how many bands are marked on the scale).

I don't know details about the BX330A-32. If someone has one of these units, I would be grateful for some more information.

To thank the Author because you find the post helpful or well done.
