Can someone please identify this radio for me? Identified as a Mivar R46. - UK Vintage Radio Repair and Restoration Discussion Forum

Hi everyone,

I know this is a long shot with not the best photos but could someone identify the make and model of this radio please? All I know is it's a valve radio.

Thank you

Hello, welcome to the forum.

Looks like a Grundig but don't know the model number. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Paul

Closest Grundig I can find is this:

But definitely not quite the same.

The set looks a bit "cheaper" with chrome strip and doesn't seem to have any Grundig markings in the usual places. Could be a down market lookalike?

Is it likely to be Eastern European?

A UNITRA from Poland?
