    I might have missed a post but do you have NOS Czech Boxes? It looks like you have six of the radios on the left, the wood panels are kind of nice and the handle/antenna setu up is different.

    Selena was a brand specifically for export markets (Okean (Ocean) for the internal one),
    those radios were manufactured in Minsk back in the day, Belarus.

    We were never exposed to any Russian Electronics, didn't even know they existed back then. I had a Russian Friend that always had a ton of watches for sale and back in the time of Swatch, they were a really cool alternative but he had no electronics.

    There were made in Moscow, back in the USSR they were know for the domestic market
    as RUBIN (Ruby), a quite famous brand - I still remember them. TENTO was the export marque.

    In Czechoslovakia, Rubin was imported with the SECAM standard. Rubin C714D is partly fitted with tubes and weight is 60kg. This TV I moved to the 3rd floor of the house, it's a monster.

    Cool stuff, that TV is definately a beast and it looks like real wood. I've never seen any of these electronics before, they were never sold over here, show more if you have it, maybe we need a new thread with these Russian Oddities, I don't ever remember anyone on the forum posting them before.

    Yep, SECAM was back then and still in use in analogue TV broadcasting in Russia.
    But since the last year all country "air" TV stations have been actively switching to digital.

    My collection contains many Soviet tape recorders and radio receivers. I think the new thread is not a problem :)
