Description

The Select T 68 S 682 TA is a transistor table radio made by Electronica in Bucharest, with the same circuit and characteristics as the Mangalia 1 S 682 TA and the Mangalia 2 [1]. It was the table version built on the circuit of the portable Albatros, with long, medium and two short-wave bands, and was also offered for export [1].

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].
