I NEED BATTERY VOLTAGE FOR XISTOR RADIO

10/12/2012 12:17:43 PMALLAN ST.MARIE

I have a 60's vintage BLAUPUNKT LIDO transistor radio and I need the battery voltage; 6v, 9v, or ? AM/FM/SW.
Thanks for any help

Allan,
Do you have the actual model number?
There were several called Lido.

Sir Allan . . . . .

Additionally . . . those were my same thoughts.

BEFORE the almost universal adoption of the common rectangular 8V "transistor" radio battery.

Several portables back

at an earlier time frame liked to use two series connected 4.5 VDC cells to end up with a 9 V battery.

In some cases the center tap supplied a reduced voltage to some portion of the circuitry.

Also, there was one early Lido that was transportable to the car . . . . . . it ran off a 6 V battery.

Look at all of these photo possibilities on your set . . . .

Everyone hits a brick wall now and then; as you soon learn . . . . . . . . .the REAL trick is not to do it with your head.
