Description
The Overseas is a portable transistor radio for export made by Electronica in Bucharest, the export version of the Albatros S 681 T, with the same data [1]. The text also lists an Overseas among the export versions of the Perla [1].
Tehnoton in Iași made it for export in 1974, 1975, 1977 and 1978; its list also has a „Sioverseas” in 1977 [2].
In the source table, sensitivity is given on medium waves for 50 mW output and a 20 dB signal-to-noise ratio, selectivity for a signal ±9 kHz (AM) or ±300 kHz (FM) away, and output power at no more than 10% distortion [1].
