Vintage radio museum in Feldkirch
Hi Gents, I recently discovered this little museum on a damp Sunday during my recent Austrian holiday.
It was presumably a radio/ TV repair business in the town of Feldkirch, just south of the Bodensee in the Voralberg province of Austria. It's in the centre of the old town, just below the castle. There appeared to be a good selection of sets inside, but it is only open one day/ month. The owner is Kal-Heinz Mallinger an Austrian radio amateur, he can be contacted at Mallinger.Karl-Heinz@cable.vol.at. I will hopefully call when he is open next year, anyone else in the area please conact him and report back. Ed |

Re: Vintage radio museum in Feldkirch
Hi Ed, I have spent many very happy holidays in the Voralberg over the years. Schruns and Tchagguns mostly. I believe the film "Hannibal Brooks" with Oliver Reed and Michael J Pollard was shot in that area. Great film and very scenic. In more recent years i have been going to Westendorf, a small village high in the Kitzbuhel alps. I didn't know about the radio shop in Feldkirch despite having visited there. I have not been on holiday for a couple of years due to health problems but hope to return to Austria one day. I'd recommend it to anyone. Regards,Colin.
