  • Notes
  • Radio sets such as "Minsk R-7" or Minsk R-7 "Elektrit Melodic scale" were made in the Soviet Union. Later - presumably for reasons of patriotism (?), some radio sets got a new scale like "Elektrit Melodic" in unknown way. There must have been small series of with this changed radio sets - in Poland, Lithuania etc.
    How such radio scale was built-in and when it's done - is unknown at this time... See also the history of Elektrit in Poland and Minsk Radio Works in Russia.
