Commentary

FM/AM receiver with solid state technology.

By using carefully selected silicon transistors, high sound quality is achieved.

The equalizer amplifier section uses a direct connection between the amplifier stages, eliminating the influence of capacitors and resistors and enabling more accurate reproduction from lower frequencies.

Equipped with an automatic return type power transistor protection circuit.

Equipped with an output selector.

The FM front-end uses a four link varicon and FET to improve the receiving capability.

High-gain ICs are used in the IF stage to obtain high sensitivity, and a limiter works from the time of Tsutomu Oire to enable reception with less distortion.
In addition, the noise limiter circuit, which cuts out external noise, is composed of four stages to cut off external noise.

Equipped with a pure electronic FM mono-stereo automatic switching circuit that automatically switches to stereo when stereo broadcast transmission.
When receiving stereo signals, the stereo indicator lamp on the dial is turned on.

A muting circuit is installed to reduce inter-station noise generated during FM channel selection.
