Hello everybody . After a one-year break, I will continue the story of my collection of tube radio. Demonstration of the work of the most original on the design of the cabinet of the Soviet radio Riga 10

Yes I remember this one; my mom's aunt had it, and it was there since I remember furst being to her place (I was possibly 4 or 5) and then the last I saw of her I was in my mid-20s. The radio never worked, it burned some time in 50s and then her husband died and that was it for the radio. I was intrigued by the vertical dial that rotated axially and hada ring for the pointer. After she died all went to her caregiver, I'm sure she tossed this radio, as well as the TV from 50s, working but with a burnt point in the middle of the tube.

I will continue the story about the radio receivers of the radio factory named after Kazicki ... In the first postwar years, the cooperation of the Ministry of Radio Industry of the USSR with the American company RCA continued. And the first joint development was a 12-tube radio model Leningrad 46, released in 1946. . In the design and construction of this radio, RCA experts will immediately see the RCA style))    The receiver has 6 bands and a bandwidth of up to 19 meters. Unfortunately in my collection there is no this model, this is a photo of someone else's radio.  

   

my collection there is a later model Leningrad 48. From the previous one it differs only in the absence of fixed settings buttons, a simplified circuit and an extended range of received waves up to 16 meters. In the receiver there were only 11 radio tubes

   
   

Sorry, it has not been restored yet ..

Chassis and speaker look so ...

       

And this faulty transformer is the main problem of unfinished restoration. To restore it will take too much time and ... patience ...Fans of RCA this problem is also familiar ...

After the onset of the Cold War between the USSR and the United States, cooperation between the USSR and the American company RCA was discontinued. The model of the radio receiver Leningrad 48 that was jointly developed and manufactured at the factory of Kazitsky was already obsolete and withdrawn from production. In 1950, an attempt was made to produce a Leningrad radio-50, completely developed at Kazicky's firm. Unfortunately the receiver turned fabulous on paper, but very complex and imperfect in reality. Therefore, it was released by a very small batch and withdrawn from production.This receiver I do not have, so I found the photo for the demonstration on the Internet

   

The next top-class radio receiver developed by the Kazitsky plant appeared only in 1954 and was manufactured by the Lenindrad Metalware Plant. It was called October and was named in honor of the October Revolution of 1917, and in fact - a coup d'état of the Bolsheviks.  It had 9 radio tubes, a push-pull amplifier with a power of 10 watts and two large speakers with a diameter of 10 inches. In the design there is a mix of different styles from Soviet monumentality, German functionality and to the style of the scale and elements of American scenery.

The design of the chassis also had a strong influence of the tradition of the German design school. In particular - the tuning knobs on the station and the band switch placed on the right side wall met only in German pre-war radios. The photo shows my radio of this model, it has already been repaired, but unfortunately I did not have free time to do its restoration.It also requires replacing a non-uniform power transformer ...

Caps СГМ, resistors УЛМ and trimmer caps КПК-1.


I bet no one ever saw the electrolytic type that we had, "ЭТО". (not here on the pic)

RE: The list of my radio & TV collection! - RadioSvit - 06-17-2017

This? Type ЭТО-1  did not find among the old radio components, but found later modifications of these capacitors with a new marking K-52-2. It's also tantalum electrolytic capacitors ...

I thought you might like to see pictures of this GE  JE-101 from 1941. It was an export model so you are more likely to find one than we are. I don't know if there was a RCA model.

It has a 110-220 power trans. I have said before that most of the export models seem to be better than domestic models and this one is no exception.

   

   

   

Our discussion on cracking veneer on a radius should include this cabinet. I don't think I have ever seen veneer bent around a 180 so tightly - and it isn't cracked.

RE: The list of my radio & TV collection! - RadioSvit - 06-17-2017

Very nice radio and I really pleased to see these photos. Thank you . But I would be even nicer to be the owner of the radio.     Stick veneer surface with a radius of 180 degrees so that it is not cracked it is a sign of the masters qualifications. My respect to you bake..
