Default Ultra radio model identification help. (Ultra Troubadour U696).

Someone kindly gave me an old Ultra radio a few days ago, but I've been unable to identify the model number or name as it has no other markings on it apart from the Ultra name.
I'm going to need a couple of valves to for it so if anyone can help me identify the model it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Yes it is and it’s the one in my avatar. No dial lamp but the badge is pilot lamp.
