BUSH VTR103 (1961/62) serial no 26251 SOLD
A fine and very good example of these rarer VHF, MW and LW models that were first produced in 1961. This one is in great condition with only a hairline crack to the rear lower back panel though difficult to see.Often the writing on the waveband switches are faded or just worn, and the controls are again faded or even yellow in colour this is still clean and bright and i have re-lettered the waveband switches to high light them again. The AF series of transistors are all original with no issues, the chassis is very clean and has had all the RF and I.F alignment re-done, particular attention was undertaken on the FM tuner and I.F stage as unlike for example Hackers where you have interstage muting control , these are preset and therefore hardly any background noise is present off signal. The VHF tuner has been readjusted to match the telescopic aerial that has been fitted in the past.VHF of course at this time was the standard 88.0 Mhz to 100 Mhz only. To the side there is a earphone socket and to the rear a external aerial plug still fitted with a tape recorder outlet to the lower case. The case is in light cream with a Tan Rexine band to the body, again the telescope aerial ia all original. The serial number 26251, is represenative of the production output in late 1961, taken into account that peak production of the VTR and TR series were in excess of 3000 units per month. The radio is guranteed for one year and includes a new battery , 9 Volt and postage and packing
