But this is a different radio. Spidola - transistor radio.

This is the most beautiful Spidola on YouTube.

I think you're right! And the way you setup your picture, it's a beauty.

Judging by the position of the controls and the speaker, it has the same internals as mine, which was made In Riga, Latvia to be sold through a distributor in London, was it "Comet Radio"?

Interesting radio. Would have enjoyed the photos without the excess greenery.

I agree. The plants were very distracting in both the pictures posted and throughout the entire video. I wanted to see the radio, not a piece of "artistic" video that actually took away from the appreciation of the radio.

Thank you all for your feedback! To some extent, they have a right to exist, although it should be noted that the video on YouTube was created almost a year ago and was aimed at a purely technical side of the issue.
Hence I am surprised that some low-resistance and low-voltage separate summary.
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas to all!
Sincerely. :)
