Philco for 1956<\/h2>\n

<\/span>Overview<\/span><\/h3>\n

Philco's 1956 radio line was slight\u00adly larg\u00ader than 1955, with more clock radios but few\u00ader porta\u00adbles. They offered more portable phono\u00adgraphs, includ\u00ading mod\u00adels with fold-up stands which made them usable as floor or table models.<\/p>\n

Two unusu\u00adal mod\u00adels for 1956: a portable radio designed espe\u00adcial\u00adly for women, with a mir\u00adror under the lid and a stor\u00adage com\u00adpart\u00adment (D665<\/span>). And one table mod\u00adel radio did not have a clock, but did have an auto\u00admat\u00adic timer (D725<\/span>).<\/p>\n

The Tran\u00adsi\u00adtone name was used for the last time on low\u00ader-priced 1956 Philco models.<\/p>\n

Philco intro\u00adduced two portable phono\u00adgraphs for the 1956 sea\u00adson that used tran\u00adsis\u00adtors instead of tubes (TPA-1<\/span> and TPA-2<\/span>). These oper\u00adat\u00aded on bat\u00adtery power.<\/p>\n
