Philco 8-Transistor portable
#1

Hi all,

I may bid on this radio shown in the photo below. As far as I can tell it's a model NT-807-BK. I can't find a lot in information about this set. Anyone out there with some idea of dates of production, where they were sold etc?

It's a 1965 model (N = 1965 model year).

You can see a Christmas 1964 ad for this radio here:

The 1965 models would have been introduced in summer 1964.

Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
