Description

The Armonia S 561 A is a mains-powered tube radio receiver made in Bucharest by Radio Popular, the factory that became Electronica in 1960 [1]. It was assembled from kits imported from Hungary [1].

Armonia is one of the names of the popular-class table radios made at Radio Popular [1]. The table gives it together with the Electromagnetica S 552 A, which has an additional EM80 magic-eye tuning indicator [1].

In the source table, sensitivity is given for 50 mW output, selectivity at 1 MHz for ±10 kHz detuning, the audio frequency response at −6 dB relative to 400 Hz, and output power at 10% distortion [1].
