Unknown make battery model- Grundig receiver. - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

muzzery · 16th Nov 2018, 10:34 pm

Hi. I am having trouble identifying a model designation for this receiver. It is battery only, 5 band and pickup. It has no back cover so I cannot tell what it is.
I suspect it was possibly an export model, looking at the dial markings which are different to the majority of grundig receivers.
Does anyone have a similar radio?
Valves are as follows. (not sure of correct order)

DF96 (with 944 on top)
DF96 (with 947 on top)
DK92
DAF91
DAF96
two times DL94
and a DM71. this is a magic eye kind of indicator lamp.
Thanks, Murray

Looks like a battery version of this

The nearest I could find on radiomuseum for the valve line up is this:

This receiver in the link below, although E series, valves looks very similar for the tuning scale and also in general for the chassis and cabinet:

By using the valve data in rm.org, I have found this near match. Slight difference in valve numbers but I wonder if it’s close enough?

I will print off the schematic and see if it looks to match.
Thank you everyone.

Looks like the battery version of a 2035 to me.

I found this through valves data on rm .org. I think it might be pretty close, but no photo..
