The Design

The radio was designed to withstand a modest amount of water. So it can be used under the shower. You're probably close to the set there, and a high output volume is not necessary. The knobs have good grip.

The upper knob is nonfunctional! I presume a predecessor model was equipped with MW, and for the MF-only batch they didn't want to run a series of new cabinets.

Obtained	5/2021 from Rudi.
Condition	10; complete with box, manual, protective bag, and came including batteries even!.
FOR SALE	Price is 1,5 Euros.

This Object

The model is too simple and cheap to bear a serial number. Also there is no indication of the production origin on the radio, the box, or the user manual.

In May 2021 I bought a box of nine radio's through the Nederlands Transistorforum from Rudi. The box arrived on May 26 and contained a MarQuant MDR-1, Magnavox NT1200, Marc NR-56VF1, Saba Sabinette 125, Sony ICF-400S, Hisonic KW-0011, Vanica, Pink clock radio, Sony CF400.
