ROBERTS R900 TRANSISTOR RADIO
This is an excellent example of a Roberts R900 portable transistor radio from the 80s with the classic Roberts striped grill and perspex top dial. The radio has been cleaned and serviced and is in excellent fully working condition. Please see detailed photos to judge condition. The case is finished in black leatherette with real hardwood side panels and a solid chromed handle. Front metal grille is perfect. Top dial is clear with no cracks or scratches. Aerial is perfect and all push buttons retain their end caps. All control knobs are original in near perfect condition.
Sound quality is amazing with decent volume and solid bass from the large cabinet. Receives FM (88-108MHz), MW & LW via built in aerial. Operates from a 9v PP9 battery (not included but available from Wilkinson for £2.99) or mains power lead supplied. Size approx: 32cm wide, 18cm high, 10cm deep. Weighs in at nearly 2.8Kg. Serial number 15093.
This model has a rotating turntable base for optimum AM reception. There’s an external aerial socket for use in a car and a ¼ inch headphone socket and a din socket for audio on the rear.
Overall a superb example of classic Roberts transistor radio that has become very collectible.
