This is a Hitachi Hi Phonic TH-900 Vintage Auto 9 AM Transistor Radio. Made in Japan. This has a very unusual wind up clock type mechanism that allows you to mechanically auto scan stations. The band range is on a rotating drum and is activated by the front push button. A pretty scarce item. From a local estate. Needs restoration. Read details below before bidding.
Cosmetics-Good overall for its age with some wear. Its been generally protected in storage. The front auto 9 decal has coating loss and is chipped off some. The front grill is bright with a few indents. The body is solid with some knurling on the edges where the two sections come together from being opened at some point. One of the inner corners has a slight stress crack and what looks like a edge burn. The battery holder has heavy blue corrosion on the contacts and the red power wire is detached. See photo. Operationally not working. Mechanically it does wind up and the drum rotates smoothly when the front button is pushed. Electronically I applied 6V to the holder but could not get any sound from the speaker or phones plug. Completely silent. But with power applied the auto tuning did scan and stop at times. Like it was sensing strong stations ?? So it seems to have a bit of life but is unknown beyond what I have described. Good for someone who likes a project. See lots of photos of what you are getting. Sold AS IS.
Includes the radio and original worn case seen above. Nothing else is included. Will be well packed for safe shipping.
