Radio ID?
Hi All,
Could anyone ID this one for me? Apologies I do not have better background info or images, it is not currently with me. Thanks in advance. |

Re: Radio ID?
Do we have a positive ID then? Is yours the AC or AC/DC model? Given that info I can update the thread title.

Re: Radio ID?
I have another unusual one I'm hoping someone might shine light on. Pics attached. It was so far gone with woodworm I gave a go at repurposing. Better than dumping it.

Re: Radio ID?
There're an Alba 22 and the Henry's Contessa that have similar control layouts but neither quite fit. Maybe it's yet another kit offering of the period?
