  • Notes
  • This model was also exportet in some quantity to Switzerland - we know because the schematic binder from Thali shows a schematic for M35, M37 and M53 - with the tubes 58, 56, 58, 58, 55, 47 and 80. The same is for Rider's 6-9, but the RF amplifier in the catalog is supposed to be a tube 57 and we presume that the Lafayette catalog shows an error.
    The following models share the same chassis: M-35 (chassis only for 105-120 volts), M-36 (chassis for 220-240 volts 25-40 cycles), M-37 mantel (cathedral), M-38 mantel with 220-240 volt chassis, M-53 Phono-Radio combination, M-54 combination for 220-240 volts. They all have AVC, full vision dial, built-in antenna and tone control.
