Philips B2G25U

 

This AC/DC Mains valve radio was made about 1960, and employs lw & mw
bands. It also employs p.c.b technology. It's main drawback, however, is that it has no output transformer, and in it's place has an 800ohms loudspeaker to act as a load for the output valve.
Not a very good idea, if the speaker should go o/c, as there are not many of this type of speaker available !. The knobs on this set tend to have a "hard life", and are often found to be damaged. Nice attractive dial !
Valve line-up :- UCH81, UBF89, UCL82, & UY85.
