At 530 Khz (the tuning range of the set is from 530 to 1620) the pointer should be on the right hand side of the dial scale

Philips Model 166
leider habe ich bis jetzt dieses Modell noch nicht im Radiomuseum gefunden. Es sollte angelegt werden, aber ich brauche dazu wenigstens den Rat eines Philips-Sammlers. In welchem Land wurde dieses Gerät produziert ?Attachments
