Default Who made this set?

This set was sold as "Radionette Colormatic 70". This set is a rebadged set. I can't find any information about this set. I would like to know from where Radionette sourced this set. It was sold in 1968

Hi Hans!

Are you sure that it is rebadged? Radionette is one of 2 norwegian TV-manufacturers / I have a Tandberg TV-1!.
The station-pushbutton assy. is well known.
It allows to store 7 stations (only alongside border countries needed), and the knob below, with a little bigger distance to the row with 7 knobs will be used to tune the 7 station buttons.
Metz and Körting (Neckermann) for example had these kind of tuners. But this kind of stuff was made by NSF or Preh.
For the moment I don`t know more.

EDIT: Körting sold under different names TVs to Sweden, had the name of the import company on it and all user informations are in swedish.
Körting could match.

Regards,
German Dalek

Hi Dalek,

Radionette never sold any colour tv that they made themselves. There was a rumour that that they had a set they planned to produce of their own design, but the company was merged with Tandberg and Radionette colour sets were "Tandberg" sets after that.

Colour transmissions were late in Norway. There was no use for colour sets in the late 60's. I've only encountered one 60's set. (Grundig) There must have been virtually no sale of colour sets before about 1972.

I have seen one early Radionette colour set from about 1970/1971. This set was a rebadged German set, but not the set i question.
