Graeme,

Erres sets made for use in tropical areas may have another type number scheme: KYnyy. In this scheme n is a figure that gives an indication of the class (price, size), and yy gives the year. KY means "Kast IJzer", and has only a historical significance.

An example of such a set is the Erres KY750 dating back from 1950.

Smaller sets are often designed for 1 frequency band only. In tropical areas the SW band is preferred, in Europe the MW band is chosen.

What tube types are used in this Erres set? It may help determing the correct year of production.
