- Notes
-
Uses permeability tuning. Tambour door is also the power switch. Antenna in strap.
Two Breville models seem to exist with the same exterior and only differing in tube set. Model 801 is equipped with a 3V4 as final amplifier, which has entirely different base connections than the 3S4 final amplifier in this model. Probably we deal with only one model with variants 3V4 and 3S4.
