  • Notes

  • Murphy 102 

    6-valve broadcast (MW) table model. Shares the same cabinet as the English TA224 export 8-band model. This NZ 102 broadcast version was probably assembled by Westco Products Ltd, in Auckland and has a NZ-specific dial.

    At this time, it was typical for Murphy radios sold in New Zealand, to have a two-letter prefix as part of the model name. Advertisements of the day would often drop the prefix so it is possible this model could be TA102.
