Vacuum Tube Radio; Gakken: Röhrenbezeichnungen doppelt

Die Röhrenbezeichnungen bei diesem japanischen Radio-Baukasten führen zu Irritationen. Die 3 verwendeten Röhren 1K2, 1A2, 2P3 sind zwar von der Bezeichnung her angelegt doch gibt es eine Doppelung. Die Röhren 1K2 = 1T4= DF91 und 2P3 = 3A4 = DL93 sind im RM angelegt und die Verknüpfungen stimmen. Bei der 1A2 = 1R5 = DK91 ist als 1A2 ein amerikanischer Eisen-Wasserstoff-Widerstand angelegt. Es müsste also eine Umbenennung (Zusatz anhängen) einer der beiden Röhren erfolgen. Ich bitte die Röhrenadministratoren um eine Meinung dazu. Wolfgang Eckardt |

Hallo Herr Eckardt
ich habe diese japanische 1A2 als 1A2_1R5 angelegt, so kann man auch sogleich ihren Äquivalenz- Typ erkennen. M. f. G. J. R. |

Gerade lese ich den Beitrag unseres Japanischen Sammlerfreundes, de uns hier mitteilte, dass das Modell die Röhren 1K2 (1T4 oder DF91) 1B2 (1S5 oder DAF91) und 2P2 (3S4 oder DL92) führen würde. Wir geben auf dem Modell 1K2 1A2_1R5 und 2P3 und das widerspiegelt den Schaltplan. |

Dear all, the tube (valve) radio came alive ... in the 'GAKKEN Vacuum Tube Radio Ver. 2', released in October 2006: enjoy from http://www.hlj.com/product/gak62133 ![]() The manufacturers website http://www.gakken.co.jp/ is Japanese language only, try Altavista (for a less helpful translation). Maybe one of our Japanese members could help with details? Kind Regards Georg |

Dear gentleman I am an old radio boy living in Tokyo. Please call me Taizo. In Japanese, “Gakken” is the language which omitted the meaning of “study research”. This radio is the goods conceived in order to use the primitive radio-tubes(battery-operated) in large quantities and was hit by chance in China The vacuum tubes currently used are 1K2 (1T4/DF91), 1 B-2 (1S5/DAF91), and 2P2 (3S4/DL92). About the loud-speaker, the volume is increased with the plastic horn (D150mm) The cases are made with all plastics. Price is about 10000 Japanese Yen. This radio is an object for the study of a principle, and does not become practical use. Many thanks! Taizo

Dear Taizo We are very glad to see the first post from Japan! Therefore it would be grat if you could persuade your radio friends in your country to play an active role here in RMorg. Every day more than 100 000 pages are opened worldwide from RMorg. Therefore your work will really be seen. Cordially, |

I changed the 1B-2 to 1B2_1S5 to distinguish from the US ballast tube and to be conform with the schematic (1B2 is given, not 1B-2). Hopefully we are on the right track ;-) In such cases we use the "underligne sign" because this has not been used by the makers. Quite often you find same tube designations for quite different tubes. If a tube often is written in different ways we may use code-9-entries to show which is our name for it and that we don't get models with different naming for the same tube. We still have to change the tube line up of the model which I have put in question in the thread in German. Maybe there are two different versions of the model (or some errrors). We have to stick to the uploaded schematic. |

For those who are not able to buy this set (it seems to be sold out): A fan from Toronto has made a nice video demonstration about unpacking, assembling (and listening to), the Ver.1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmVC6HqEWYYYou need Flashplayer installed to enjoy. GR |
