Erres radio? I had never heard of them. This one was brought to Australia by a Dutch migrant. It is complete but in rather poor condition. The radio refuses to work until I get serious with it, the cabinet will need a complete re-finish. Please follow along as I attempt to coax this poor old radio back to life. This may be the only example of this model radio in Australia.

My Digital Signal Generator:
The Signal Generator is a project kit from a local electronics magazine called Silicon Chip, there is a sister publication in the UK called Practical Electronics, it was featured in the April 2018 edition but mine has a oscilloscope function as well which I don't use. There may be a later edition in PE with that feature.
