In the holidays i´ve seen in the garage of a friend this old box. Missing the 2nd Cassette-door, i´m sure the label was on it.
I had no chance to put it down and look for an Labelsticker.
Anybody knows what it can be and it´s interesting for saving?!?
i bet it's either a cheap Fisher, or a Fisher knock-off. er..wait, maybe im thinking Emerson. either way i have a box with the same tape-deck configuration that is very similar, and its one of those two brands. interesting box!
Probably an Emerson or Embassy or a Soundesign or Luna or who knows I guess a Craig maybe Radio Shack but at least is a boombox.
an aka
but no idea `bout the brand from the requested one.
Hard to guess...
thanks for sharing roman!
An interesting and rare box!
next time have a look onto the back side sticker....
Where are the tape deck buttons for the upper deck?
^ On the top. I observed that on TPR's aka pic.
Ok, next time when i visit him, i will take a look (or more).
I hope he don´t throw it away next time.
And i must look for an other old radio for changing....

right - cheers RA
Today i was there and got it!
It´s an
SOUND-TECHNIC!!!
More infos and pics tomorrow.
I changed it against an old KAPSCH of my boombox-wreck-storage.
Today i tested it.
Plugging in > nothing > short hit at the wave switcher > rumblin´... > short hit on the top > playig!
So it looks like, cleaning the switches and regulators is enough.
After cleanig i saw, the brand is named near the bottom, next the tape deck buttons.
Under the dust was it.
And here a few shots of the first playing after many years:
And one for TPR, if interesting:
If anybody have the missing tapedoor, please tell me!
Nice blaster, Roman!
Shame about the missing door, it looks like it cleaned up well!
...is that a railway signal board you've got there?
Thanks, R.A.!
Not cleaned well, but off the great dust.
Final cleaning soon.
I´m sure i won´t find the missing door.
I´ve never seen such an box/brand before....
I only remember an old "car-technic" radio in my first car.
Yes, it was in the morning at my signal desk at our railway station. I thought it´s an nice background...

It certainly is!
Lit up with LEDs like that, it looks like something which would be featured on-board a spacecraft or something, in an '80s film!
