    4 HF transistors are the black button type & not clearly legible.

    There is a ED1502C. This is followed by 1 x Hitachi 2SB459; 3 x Mitsubishi 2SB178 (imprint is B178 only); in the power pack 1 x without imprint.

    Electrolytes from 'trojan' and from 'rion'.

    Shape and scale arrangements seem to be made for the European market, especially GB and D. However, the spelling of German stations is unusual: Wdr, Swf, etc.

    In addition to 'twin speakers', the radio also has 2 telescopic antennas.

    Connections: DIN socket, external antenna, earphones.
