Default Photos from Friedrichshafen flea market

Hi All

I spotted 3 unusual radios in FDH that I hadn't seen before (not the Yaesus)

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/otj685xxe...ptLnBJpha?dl=0

Note the Trio is perched on a KW2000 labelled G3VPE

The Belson looks like a rebranded "Frontier Electronics" ofthe same model, see https://sites.google.com/site/fhands...ontiersuper600

That same vendor had quire a lot of KW and was not from UK, maybe an expat as Trio was mostly a UK branding


FYI&A

Is that "Geloso" I see on the dial of the top radio in the 2nd photo?

They were an Italian manufacturer who as far as I remember exited the amateur market about the same time as Decca-KW.

Yes a Geloso TX and RX, much newer looking than any I have seen before

KW used Geloso VFOs and dials in some early models. Geloso VFOs were used in some homebrew designs, but full sets from Geloso are quite rare in the UK.
