    The radio employs a chassis with sub-modules: a power supply module (transformer with rectifier) and 3 completely closed modules with the tubes on top; the RF input and oscillator / mixer module with the valve 57; an IF module with the valve 58 and a detector AF module with the diode/penthode 2B7 and the final AF valve 2A5.

    The oscillator coil has been mounted on top of the oscillator / mixer module. The actuation of the MW-LW switch inside the module is done by a lever from the underside. The antenna input consists of a set of two high Q top-coupled resonance circuits. All IF transformers (108 kHz) and resistors - capacitors to operate the valves are inside the closed modules.
