Commentary
An FM/AM stereo receiver that uses an all-stage direct-coupled differential amplification OCL circuit in the audio section.
Electronic transistor protection circuit is adopted.
Low-noise PNP silicon transistors are used for all stages of the preamplifier and the first stage of the power amplifier.
The FM tuner uses a 4-stage IF low-noise FET.
It also automatically switches between FM stereo and mono.
