Hans is right.Long wave: 150 ... 375 kHz (or kilocycles)Medium wave: 531 ... 1715 kHz.In the early 70s, you could still buy a new carradio with only LW and MW, and with a supply of (switch selectable) 6 V or 12 V.I did, for my first car, a Renault 4.BertVerzonden vanaf mijn Galaxy

(I'm from 54)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EKCO Your pushbutton model appears to be a luxury model.Ecko radios appear to be a typical English marketed product. Unknown in the Netherlands.Hope you can find someone who can help.Cheers,Hans71 BGT-----Oorspronkelijk bericht-----Van: Mgs <mgs-bounces at autox.team.net> Namens daveVerzonden: maandag 4 oktober 2021 23:11Aan: mgs at autox.team.netOnderwerp: Re: [Mgs] Radios(Oops.  Should not have had someones name on it)My friend has an early 60's right hand drive MG 4 door sedan.  It has a radio in it, but only the light comes on.  no sound, static, or anything.It looks like it’s an Ekco Type 1901.  It power unit is separate from the radio head.  I’m guessing the speaker connects to the power unit?I don’t think it’s an AM radio.  The frequency dial runs from 200-2000.   I did happen to find a website that shows it’s a radio that was new in 1961.  Only 31 pounds!http://antique-autoradio-madness.org/Ecko/Ekco-1960_1.htmdid the UK have a different set of bandwidths than the US?_______________________________________________Mgs at autox.team.netDonate: http://www.team.net/donate.htmlSuggested annual donation  $12.75Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/mgs http://autox.team.net/archiveUnsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/dave@ranteer.com_______________________________________________Mgs@autox.team.netDonate: http://www.team.net/donate.htmlSuggested annual donation  $12.75Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/mgs http://autox.team.net/archiveUnsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/h.duinhoven@planet.nl-- Dit e-mailbericht is gecontroleerd op virussen met Avast antivirussoftware.https://www.avast.com/antivirus_______________________________________________Mgs@autox.team.netDonate: http://www.team.net/donate.htmlSuggested annual donation  $12.75Archive: http://www.team.net/pipermail/mgs http://autox.team.net/archiveUnsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/mgs/palte@gmx.net
