When I saw this radio I thought it would be nice to walk around with it. Year is a guess, and production region as well! I couldn't find any information about this set on the Internet. 
The left ear piece holds a battery space and tiny speaker and whip antenna. The right side has a little PCB with complete AM/FM receiver and the second, extremely small, speaker.
| Obtained | 4/1996 from Queen's Day Market. |
|---|---|
| Condition | 7. |
| Disposed | Sold 3/2016. |
| Sound sample | PLAY SOUND The sound quality is quite good (also the bass response, which cannot be heard well on this recording), though the AF amp produces some noticeable noise. |
The battery compartment was broken, but this was later repaired. In 2015 the left speaker stopped working. I didn't take the royal way here of repairing the tiny amplifier, but instead soldered the right speaker (red wire) to the output of the left one (white wire).
