Kolster-Brandes KB880AC |
|
NOTES | Dont know much about this set. Its certainly a huge set, but the chassis fills the entire space. Compare that to the early post-war radios such as the Regentone AW44 where the chassis often looks lost in the case ! |
---|---|
SERVICE DATA | A copy of the original Kolster-Brandes service sheet (dated 1940) was on CD#2. |
CURRENT STATE | Has already been subject to some restoration and is basically working. The chassis itself is immaculate. However all but one control knob is missing (and I can't be certain even if that is original). Still, no longer my problem as regretably I've sold it. |
WHERE FOUND | Bought privately for £10. The guy dug out out from the back of one of
his sheds and, despite my pleadings, plugged the thing in the mains. He
then switched it on while I dived for cover. And it worked just fine. Sold to a luck punter at the BVWS's December 2002 Wotton Bassett bash. |
