In the November/December 1946 issue of the Austrian radio magazine "Radiotechnik" was a report about the Swiss Autumn exhibition in Zurich (August 28th - September 3rd, 1946).

Amongst other models, was a picture of portable radio named "Romae Portable":

Romae Portable

The only data mentioned:

Miniature radio "Romae Portable", appearance like a camera, 4-tube superhet, broadcast band (MW), antenna in the shoulder strip, dimension ~240x135x51mm, weight ~2,2kg (4,85 lb) including batteries.

Unfortunately I did not found any othe reference. Does anybody know more about?

Thank you very much in advance!

This information is about a model, as the one already available, but having two bands MW and SW. It is shown in two pictures Personal 106a for the dial showing the two bands lines and the brand identification in the middle of it, when previously was in the lower part. Picture 106b showns the button for changing the band.

I request help for uploading this kind of  information in an alternative way of text for the Forum if any.

Excuss my English and any spelling mistake

Dispongo de información sobre un modelo posterior al que ya existe. Adjunto dos fotografias que la ilustran. El cambio es que el nuevo aparato es de dos bandas MW y SW.

En la foto  Personal 106a se ve el dial con las dos bandas y el nombre del fabricante en la mitad del dial y no en la parte inferior como en el antiguo modelo. En la foto Personal 106b se ve el botón de cambio de banda.

Agradecería información de como proponer este cambio si es que hay otra forma además de ponerla en el Foro.
