  • Notes
  • This model was designated for the Swedish market and also advertised in Sweden. It has a dial scale marked "203 Zwe" (Zwe is short for Dutch Zweden).

    The back cover is different from models for other countries - it has a mains connector that is forcibly disconnected when the cover is removed.

    The Norsk Elektriske Materiell-Kontroll (Nemko) has approved model 203U in September 1941.

    See also the Dutch "base" model 203U with ventilation openings. There is also a Dutch predecessor model without such openings.

    This radio was made in Eindhoven, The Netherlands.
