I have a Polish Calypso "Diora" model 62015 AM/FM/SW tabletop set. It is a knock-off of the popular German wooden tabletop sets of the 1950-65 era, but the finish is more or less gone on it, & it doesn't perform anywhere near as well as its German cousins. But to be fair, it only has 5 tubes. Interestingly, enuff, it has the American FM band, & is set up for 110, so maybe it was an attempt by the Poles to try to get hard currency. Who knows ? I got it offa You-Know-Where a few years back, I don't think I have very much in it. Sorry to go off-topic, this is sposed t'be about Pocket Transistor Sets...
