Meines Wissens ist der "915X" das einzig -mir bekannte- Radiogerät, das mit einem "Schiebekondensator" für die Sendersuche ausgestattet war. Der "Sciehko" war aufgebaut wie die späteren "Phillips Tauchtrimmer", drei Rundpakete auf einem Keramikstift, Das Teil muss ich (in Deutschland) noch rumliegen haben. Wenn ich (in ca. 4 Wochen wieder in Deutschland bin, werde ich das Teil photografieren und posten. Aber das ist eine Besonderheit, die nicht vergessen werden darf.
