1965.5c. 1959Steel, copper, glass valves480 × 300 × 220 mm
A steel chassis, four output valves, a transformer wound to order, and point-to-point wiring done by hand with no board. Built to be louder than anything imported, which is what it was for.
Two resistors have been changed and one of them is not the right value. We left both in place: the repairs are part of what the object records.
