Nordmende Turandot C Vintage German Radio
Description : 30 May, 2023
What do we have here? This is a rare fully operational, just serviced, all original vintage solid state superheterodyne radio made by Nordmende in West Germany in 1966/67. It is in overall excellent condition. Controls are noise-free, include its original removable power cord, and both display light bulbs are working. It is a North American version taking our regular 120 VAC directly from the wall without voltage converter. Features include: - FM and BC (broadcast which is AM) bands - tone control button which adjust bass/treble balance - built in antenna and connection for external antennas - DIN plug input for tape/phono - solid brass tuning string pulley and power input pins - desirable vintage oil-in-paper capacitors
Its recent test/service includes the following: - removal of electronics for bench test and cleanup access - clean away 5 decades of dust buildup from the ponents and inside the wooden case - treat all switches, fuse holder, antenna port, and volume control with Nu-Trol control cleaner - clean and treat input power pins (both male and female ends) with DeOxit red and gold - adjust dial adjuster string tension - electrical check of several ponents - clean dial display and buttons - adjust calibration of dial indicator to properly align with station frequencies
Despite this TLC, I have priced it lower than the couple similar Turandot C and equivalents I see on the market. It is ready to literally "plug and play." Would be a great addition for MCM interiors, or vintage radio collectors.
Some info on this model is included at the RadioMuseum: _turandot_c_1966.html
