Battery tube superheterodyne VEF B 306.


Battery tube superheterodyne VEF B 306. Latvia, the well-known factory VEF 1940. The receiver is all-wave, with three ranges - LW, MW and KW. It is assembled on three tube with a 2 volt glow and is intended for use in remote areas of Latvia, as well as in the Baltic and Scandinavian countries, where it was exported and where electricity was not yet available before the war. The beautiful and stylish case of the receiver imitates carbolite, but in fact it is made of ... wood. This is the technological paradox of the middle of the last century, when using more labor-intensive and old technologies using manual labor and more expensive materials imitated cheaper, but trendy carbolic receivers, the production technologies of which were not yet accessible to all firms.

Батарейный ламповый супергетеродин VEF B 306 .

Батарейный ламповый супергетеродин VEF B 306 . Латвия , всем известный завод VEF 1940 год. Приемник всеволновый , с тремья диапазонами - ДВ , СВ и КВ. Собран на трех лампах с 2-х вольтовым накалом и предназначен для эксплуатации в отдаленных районах Латвии ,а также стран Балтии и Скандинавии , куда он поставлялся на экспорт и где в довоенное время еще отсутствовало электричество . Красивый и стильный корпус приемника имитирует карболит, но на самом деле сделан из ... дерева . Вот такой технологический парадокс середины минувшего столетия , когда с помощью более трудозатратных и старых технологий с использованием ручного труда и более дорогих материалов имитировали более дешевые, но модные карболитовые корпуса приемников , технологии производства которых еще не всем фирмам были доступними .
