[QUOTE="Family_Dog, post: 224540, member: 82"] Can't believe those used to sell at R19.95 (or was it ?19/9/6 or ?9/19/6d) when brand new! Most probably AC/DC, in other words no AC Mains transformer, so the cabinet enclosure at the back and also the power cord need to be in good nick for reasons of safety. EDIT: Hmmm... open yer eyes, F_D! It is stated above as AC/DC, and the U-Series valves were used for such sets. So it might just have a resistive cord fitted or a big dropper resistor inside the cabinet. -F_D [/QUOTE]
