- Notes
-
This model could be powered from either batteries or a 6 volt accumulator via a synchronous vibrator unit. When powered from the latter, the valve filaments are connected across one cell of the accumulator and the 4 volt vibrator unit is connected across the other two. This radio tunes seven bands. It is similar to the AWA Radiola 277.
