Thanks for your help and assistance on this one.
You are probably right - this could be a New Zealand made set."Transformerless "sets were never popular here .Most sets made in N.Z. have used power transformers ( possibly because our mains voltage here is 240 volts) except in later years when many Philips sets were sold which were AC/DC.
Furthermore there is no sign of any model serial number on the chassis.
But do the U.S. made ones seem to use a third lead on the output transformer?
Cheers and best wishes,
