The radio I have received 5-dec per "Steamship". Beauty of a state only unfortunately the record Player was gone. No need on that knew I well what on. I had stands for years a Philips case phonograph in a worse state with an AG1014 recordchanger. This one is a bit newer than the original AG1003-75.
The chassis has been electric repaired and can now be
played for years ahead. I replace some black condensators, the EZ80 rectifier, the rope work for the drive of the AM and FM, switches cleaned, scale lamb.
Some condensators replased and but back in the old "coat" at so you
can't see that they are replaced. See here for
some examples to
realize that.
Details;
With this Philips are the
buttons different as customary. It stretch lighting behind the 2 colorful buttons.
top whitewash and under brown. By impressions of a button, the white part of the button is lit.
The radio has appart from a FM-dipool, 2 AM-loop antennae with a switchbutton underneath the
tuning knop a loop can be chosen. The middle position is for the external AM antenna. For the Short wave
a choice can be made on the back also
by these Loops or different by external antenae.
The record Player;
Original in this set an
AG1003-75 is put. This one was disappeared so I have used an AG1014 from the Philips phonograph case
AG9127-95. Of this the entire amplifier
was half demolished and the cover of the case was no longer to repair.
The AG1014 (1957) is the 4 speed version of the AG1003 (1954) and has thus the 16 rpm as extra. The record player can automatic
detect the size of the records with a metal lever. This can be chosen also
manual with the most left button. Above position 12", in the middle of position 10" and entire
pressed 7".
The 45 rpm adapter is in backorder.
More information can about these recordchangers can here be found.
