Murphy Radio 1959
Pictured below is the U502 receiver.
This set is notable as it is the first Murphy receiver designed only for
VHF reception.   Another
set in a similar cabinet that received only MW was also available, and was
designated U504. The bakelite
cabinet shown is a brick red, and reference to the photograph shows that it
envelopes the entire chassis in one piece. The chassis is mounted on the white front panel that slips
into the red bakelite case. A
single screw through the rear of the cabinet pulls the white front into the
cabinet and holds it in place. Valve
line–up is 10L14, 10F18, 10F18, 10D2, 10PL12, U381.
Also notable in 1959 was the release of the first
transistor radio from Murphy, the model B385.
It was updated to B485 in 1961 but retained the same circuit and a
similar cabinet, the B485 may be found on the Murphy 1961 page.
At the top of the range in 1950 was the A574.
The equivalent set manufactured in the Murphy Dublin works, model TA394L,
is shown on the Murphy Irish page.
Full range available from 1959
