Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
Thank you, I think you're right with the PR36 Lawrence, I know there were a few varieties, this one doesn't have a telescopic aerial.

Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
Lawrence is rarely wrong! Both are very nice ..... and do I see a Bush TR130 lurking in the background?

Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
The Bush TR130 and Murphy B818 are a good example of so called "Badge Engineering," they are fundamentally the same set with minor cosmetic differences. They were manufactured by Rank Bush Murphy in 1965.

Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
The only other one is this ferranti one. No model number, my guess would be one of the PT vanity ones.

Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
I like the looks of that Pye. Lovely nice clean lines and clear controls.

Re: Two radios to identify model numbers?
Think its a branding thing again barry with multiple sets looking the same but with different company names on. The handles are different though
