- Notes
- Typical of Murphy's quirky design, this nearly normal rounded box is brought to life with the tuning window bezel. Designed by David Ogle, most famous for the design of the Bush TR82 portable transistor radio of the late 1950's. The main drawback of this design is that the speaker must be small enough to fit on one side of the central tuning scale. A trawler band version (A192T) was also available.
