Unusual Dial
Came accross a picture of a small transistor radio with a very unusual dial...
Can anybody identify the country of use?/stations?/frequencies?.... are "2" and "4" bands? jr |

AWA is an Australian brand.

Interesting...thanks!
So the 2 and 4 designations are not bands, but are originating states, with 2 indicating New South Wales and 4 indicating Queensland. Example: 2BL is Sydney on 702 kHz and 4BC is Brisbane on 1116 kHz. Radio is standard AM band only. Looks as if AWA (not to be confused with Aiwa) made some very nice radios. jr Last edited by Celt; 03-11-2018 at 02:17 PM. Reason: oops! 702 is 2BL |

Packard Bell used to put radio station callsigns on their radio dials.
