- Notes
-
MW & LW radio with 45 rpm vertical portable disc player, slot for 7" disc in the top. The radio section uses a LP1158 radio module plus 6 other transistors. Output stage is probably OC75 and 2 OC81Ds but I can't see to read the numbers. Curiously there is a 2N3055 but I can't see what it is for. The record player uses a separate 9 volt battery to the radio. There is no speed control so the record speed will slow down as the battery voltage drops.
