Marconiphone 882

BACK

MARCONIPHONE 882 A.C Mains valve radio. This employs long, medium, and short wave bands. It was released in June, 1939, at the same time as its HMV (model 1104) equivalent. These receivers were equipped with pre-set tuning for five stations, permeability tuning was used in the oscillator circuitry.
The valve line-up :-X65, KTW61, DH63, KT61, & U50.
My set is awaiting restoration - the dial cord requires restringing for a start.
The MARCONIPHONE 882 is a fine example of a pre-WW2 radio receiver.
