  • Notes

  • This is the Ever ready branded version of the 8503 from the penultimate Lissen range. The York 8574/A and Lancaster 8647 are the "short" versions (ECH3, EF9, EBL1, AZ1) in 1940.
    The Lissen family is: Radiogram 8529 manual, Radiogram 8533 manual, 8539 automatic mixed sizes Then in 1940, Radiogram 8480 manual(Ever Ready 5380), Radiogram 8481 automatic (Ever Ready 5381).

    Late models may use similar but different base tubes (valves) due to wartime shortages. Production probably ceased in early 1941 due destruction of London factories from bombing.

    Models in the Lissen range are called Salisbury, Winchester and Portland.
