If you fancy a top quality valve radio with a small footprint, perfect VHF reception and German style look no further. If I was to be picky the only thing I can find to complain about are a couple of tiny spots on the original speaker cloth. The walnut case has a piano level of gloss, which is original - no marks or scratches. This Elektra sounds almost as good as the huge multi speaker sets - and it has most of the tone control / filter / magic eye and other gizmos that you would find on a top end Grundig or Telefunken. It is quite simply staggering how much technology and more importantly quality the West German radio makers managed to fit into their small valve radios.

Very high specification receiver, you will be pleased.įrequency Coverage VHF FM only to 108 MhzĪntenna - dipole with sockets for all kinds of things! The cabinet is all original and in good condition. VHF only, no nonsense and fantastic performance. It is also the hardest one to find! The RV14 with later push pull output stage and a VHF FM tuner that goes right up to 108 MHz. King of Hacker valve models, this is the best one by far of all the Mayflowers. Antenna included.Īntenna - simple wire for LW / MW - maybe a bit longer for good SW. Uses a clever set of valves to get the most out of three "bottles" and a rectifier. Audio quality is good and despite being a short superhet it works very well on LW and MW, with the bonus of SW. The cabinet is smart, it has one or two minor age blemishes but retains its original factory finish.
