Based on the L1X75T "Kayak" transistor radio from
1957. This radio has a clock on the left side (the -02 series has a barometer)
and added long wave.
Made from black plastic with a silver colored metal front.
The jagged edge around the wavelength scale is used for tuning.
Diagonally left above the tuning scale is the thumb wheel of the
on/off/volume knob.
The back cover is closed with two screws.
The setting buttons for the clock and the alarm clock, the knob
for setting the function (off, radio, alarm clock) and an
aluminum support are at the back.
The wavelength switch is located on the right side.
On the left is the connection for an earphone.
The receiver is powered by four 1.5 volt AA
batteries.
The wavelength range is: MG 188-566 meters, LG
1190-1949 meters.
The intermediate frequency is 452 kHz.
