What is it

[uncleeddie]

I have this radio/receiver chassis that I wonder if some one can help identify. No names or numbers any where.

Hello uncleeddie
It has the look of a German set all over it. AEG; Telefunken; Grundig; etc; etc. What is the tube line-up for this Radio. The FM scale on the Dial also says it was possibly made for export to the North American Market. Usually, these German Radios come with an envelope inside containing the Schematic, but the Schematic may have dissappeared a long time ago. Can you take a good picture of the chassis, showing the tubes and IF cans as well as the FM tuner setup. A Far stretch would be a Philips, but I doubt it. They were all in bed together at one time, in the manufacturer of Radios.

Regards
Ralph

I had a Blaupunkt that looks to be the “spittin’ image ” of this.

Hello John
Yes I agree, especially the Blauplunkt Granada Model, of which there were many, has much in common with the Radio in qestion. Also even the Saba and the Nordmende sets have so much in common. It seems that the poster only has the chassis. But maybe he does have the cabinet. But is no doubt a German set from the 50s or 60s. Problem is, that there are so many German Radio Manufacturers and they all have so much in common, especially in looks of cabinets and Dial Faces??? However as I said it was built for export to the North American market.

I checked some tubes and found most are labeled “Fleetwood”. Also a/c plug-ins for “phono motor only”, “TV” & “AUX”. Also RC’s for “PHONO”, “TAPE PLAY BACK” & TAPE RECORD”. I am still have technical difficulties trying to shrink down photo’s that are small enough to download from my IPhone. Photos to follow soon (hopefully).

What are the Part numbers of the tubes. Those Fleetwood tubes are most likely replacement tubes. You can also download pics to you your computer and trying to Post from you computer. Try just just picking up the pics and pasting them into the body of the text when you make a Post.

Further research reveals thatJohn may be on to something. Fleetwood was a. Montreal company, which had offices and warehouse in Vancouver. They sold/manufactured radios, TVs/ tape players, phonos, etc. Including Grundig products. Possibly rebranding some of these products as their own makes and models.
