[RadioSvit]

Thank you again, MrFixr55.

The only European radio in my collection is a Telefunken Allegro 5083W, that I bought at a church thrift shop for $40 USD. The glass faceplate is cracked but the wood is excellent. I did successfully glue the faceplate back together, replaced the filter caps and cleaned it up. It plays rather nicely. Advertised as Stereo, but only for an external tape or phono input; there is no FM Multiplex, only Mono FM. An external speaker is required for stereo and the 2 amplifiers are not equal (EL84, ECL86).

This was a fairly common concept for building a stereo radio in Europe. Stereo decoders were sold separately as an option, but I've never wanted one. Well, one remote external speaker to obtain a stereo effect is also a controversial decision


Yesterday I shot a new video, there is very little about the radio, but a lot of music from the 50s. Listening to music and collecting old records is my second hobby.
