  • Notes
  • Probably made by Detrola for Croydon.

    A very similar version with magic eye tuning is the Croydon 136E.

    The schematic chassis layout is also very similar to the Detrola 149 (no magic eye version) though with a different cabinet.  Note that the Detrola 149 schematic actually is the 149E with magic eye and the Detrola 136 as the same as the 149E without the magic eye. 

    Very similar cabinet is also the Detrola 109, which is broadcast band only.
