It might be worthwhile removing the radio's covers and inspecting the wiring connections to the mains transformer's primary winding(s). It's not uncommon to find that such a transformer has two primary windings that can be hard-wired for 115 v. (Two windings in phase-parallel) or for 230 v. (Two windings in series phase additive).
We know (from posts above) that 115 v. and 230 v. a.c.mains requirement models were built. To me, seems very unlikely that two different transformers were used when these radios were built on the production line for export to various countries. (USA being predominantly 115 v. and Europe being 230 v.)
