  • Notes
  • "National Defence Radio" sets were built for use abroad and in emergency cases. Battery or mains operation (100 V~) - on battery the tube UX-30 functions as audion, while on mains the UY-56 takes that role.

    The maker of this set is currently not known with certainty. Information has been taken from Mr. Hayashi lists this model under the manufacturer name Futaba Shoukai (Shōkai), a company founded in 1935, producer of plastics and related devices, but not known to have produced any radios.
