    DDR radio - Kolibri 2 - VEB Stern Radio Berlin

    Hello

    Yesterday I bought this very nice and famous DDR radio from a friend of mine , the Kolibri 2
    It was made by VEB Stern Radio Berlin in 1953 / 1954 .
    It's the same principle as the so called Volksempfängers , the Nazi radios .
    The radio has only one tube ( UEL 51 ) it is made of bakelite and small
    11,4 x 9,3 x 5,5 inch .
    Normaly this radio would have Berlin I and Berlin II on the dial . this radio has
    Hilversum I and Hilversum II on the dial , this one was made for the Dutch market , when you bought an east german suit , you received this radio as a present from the dutch company Vroom en Dreesmann ( V&D ) this is one of Hollands biggest retailers .
    The radio is in a perfect condition and in a great working order .

    were the Hilversum dials factory fitted in the DDR or were they fitted as an aftermarked addition in Hilversum? Tot ziens, Torsten.
