  • Notes
  • 46-420 "Hippo" is a family of radio models. Code 125 uses as output tube 50B5 in stead of 50L6GT. See also Code 128 and Code 121 for the Pilco models 46-420. Hippo is a designation given to that radio by USA consumers due to the fact that the radio appears to look like a hippopotamus. We have only added this nickname to this model page.
