Croatia blasting

[ViennaSound]

Just back from one week holiday in Opatija (Croatia).

Part 1 of the story:

On the way i stopped on a flea, and how could it be other - i found a boombox
Littlebit overpriced, but still fair in fully working condition.
Had a little spare holiday money so it came with me

Here my holiday boomer
SIEMENS club 745

4wavebands, expand stereo, all sorts of tape

quite senceless double volumeknob

the signs on the tapebuttons are typical SIEMENS

a load of connections
double speed tuning knob (inner one turns faster, for fine tuning)

backside with connection for extern aerial
Look: it only needs 6 D cells

AMPS

tunometer/battery

the tapedoor function is inverted
Push the button strong to open it
Push the door a bit and it closes automatic

love that solid VUs

can be holidays nicer?
