[RadioSvit]

I have always been interested only in premium radio receivers, but for three years I began to pay attention to small radio sets in the carbolite corps, which in the USSR and Europe were made as "folk radio" for poor categories of the population. After the Second World War in the USSR, radio of this class was produced both with 220 volt power supply and with power from anodic and incandescent batteries. Models of radio sets of the "folk radio" class were very few, but their number was the largest one. Another feature is that each model was produced by three .. four manufacturers. The first post-war "folk" radio receivers were the receivers of the Record model, Record-46 and Record 47.Record and Record 46 very rare models that were released by experimental parties and I have not been able to purchase them yet. But in my collection there are two radio models Record 47 - one has already been restored, and the second is in restoration.

Radio Record 47 is a Soviet analogue of American radio type AA5,. It has five radio tubes and no power transformer. But there is one difference - the receiver is all-wave and receives radio stations in the range from 150 kHz to 12 MHz.
