The 0 – 500 epicyclic readout dial allows for continuous analog tuning while digitally indicating incremental progress over a range of ten full turns of the large tuning knob that tunes with velvet smoothness. Ten times the circumference of the dial is nearly 4 meters on a normal dial scale, which delivers great frequency resolution. The dial is not calibrated to directly indicate a frequency but a frequency calibration chart is necessary to determine the correct operation frequency.

HRO-model with knobs with metal skirts (selectivity control in right upper corner and new noise limiter control left of main dial both also with metal skirt), round metal labels around AVC and B+ switches, black micrometer dial and rectangular S-meter, S-meter toggle switch; printed metal calibration charts on coilsets. Rectangular IF filter shielding cans.

External "dog house" type power supply : PSU 697 (filaments 6.3 V AC, B+ 240 V DC) used as standard.

This model variant has been used for HRO-5A1 sets.
