Trophy 5

The Trophy 5 represents a significant advancement in British shortwave receiver technology, produced by British Television Supplies, Ltd. and jointly marketed with Peto-Scott Co., Ltd. from the late 1930s. As the most sophisticated model in the Trophy lineup at its introduction, the Trophy 5 was designed for the serious amateur and experimenter seeking a communication-type receiver with professional features.

Key features of the Trophy 5 include:

• Continuous shortwave coverage for comprehensive listening across international bands.
• Band-spreading for precise tuning and improved selectivity, allowing users to separate closely spaced stations.
• Beat-Frequency Oscillator (B.F.O.) enabling the reception of CW (Morse code) and SSB (single sideband) transmissions, a must for amateur radio enthusiasts.
• Automatic Volume Control (A.V.C.) to stabilise audio output and reduce fading effects common in shortwave listening.
• Illuminated tuning scale for easy operation in low-light conditions.

The Trophy 5 was acclaimed for its sensitivity, selectivity, and innovative feature set, making it a favorite among advanced listeners and hobbyists in the UK. Its robust design and value for money further cemented its reputation as a top-tier receiver in the pre-war British market.
The Trophy 5 was built upon the success of earlier models in the series, such as the Trophy 2 and Trophy 3, and paved the way for the even more refined Trophy 8.
