This radio came minus its valves - looking at the underside you can see why - someone has replaced the original linecord with a mains cable, the live going to chassis, the neutral to the rectifier heater and anodes. The radio is small in size approx 9" x 6.5" x 6", has 3 wavebands L,M,& S and the only identification is the name LUKE on the dial - some of the capacitors are dated JULY 1946.

Has anybody come across a radio like this, or have any information ??
