Hi guys ! Was able to get 2 of this beautiful units, an European and a Japanese version. None of them works but the radio portion only, so I will be servicing them soon. Here some pics where you can see the differences. Enjoy! Left: European, nice MADE IN JAPAN label, and SUPER SENSITIVE TUNER legend. Official model HS-J09. Right: Japanese, includes a TV channel tuner, official model HS-J9. Reads CassetteBoy on lower left. Left: European. Missing a tab on the left play indicator and the stop button a bit damaged, cosmetic only. Right: Japanese, has more labels on the Dolby and Tape selector knobs. Left: European, typical switches, with FM Mono/Stereo selection. Right: Japanese, lower switch includes TV channels selector. Left: European, nice summary of Dolby stuff. Right: Japanese, nice summary of characteristics, with CassetteBoy label !! Left: European, western readable label with unit characteristics. Right: Japanese, lots of kanjis .
