I can't start this repair for a few days, but this will be the next radio on the bench.
It was made in the USSR and I know very little else about it. It rattles.

@dtl my pleasure! By the by, Soviet magazine Radio used to publish schematics and PCBs for some of the series, so if you need it, I can try and search for your model

@dtl 7 Transistor. There was a time when the number of transistors were shown on the radios.

@dtl my Mom saw this picture and then told me she recognized it right away. she said in Soviet times the government wanted to create an appearance of modernity in the more western provinces so they put a lot of the high end manufacturing and retail in the more Western regions lole Latvia. people on more Eastern regions would then travel there to go shopping, and his was a popular shortwave radio brand. at the time, shortwave was the only way to get information from the Western world
