Network tube radio receiver "Yantar".
Tube radios.DomesticSince 1961, the network tube radio receiver "Yantar" has been produced by the Riga state plant VEF. Perhaps only this radio, apart from special and a few earlier household ones, was produced and was on free sale for the population with short wave ranges from 11.5 to 50 meters. True, there was no LW range in the receiver, since the receiver was intended for export. For a number of reasons, the export did not take place and the receiver was sold in the USSR in the amount of 30 thousand devices. 6-tube receiver. Rated output power 1.5 W. Ranges: CB standard. KV-1 21.4 ... 26.1 MHz (14.0 ... 11.5 m). KV-2 15.1 ... 17.9 MHz (19.9 ... 16.8 m). KV-3 9.5 ... 12.0 MHz (31.6 ... 25.0 m). KV-4 5.95 ... 7.4 MHz (50.5 ... 40.6 m). Intermediate frequency 465 kHz. The sensitivity of the model with an external antenna: 40 ... 80 μV for CB, 60 ... 120 μV for all KV and with a built-in ferrite antenna at medium waves of 0.4 mV / m. Selectivity on the adjacent channel at a detuning of ± 10 kHz in the HF ranges - 54 dB, MW - 60 dB. The band of reproducible sound frequencies is 50 ... 5000 Hz. Power consumption from the network is 60 watts. The acoustic system of the Yantar radio receiver consists of two 2GD-8 VEF loudspeakers.
