Radio sets of Royal families (Techniek Overig)

Princess Juliana acquired in 1925 a NSF W1 radio set, mounted in a special made and luxurious wooden cabinet.

Dutch Queen Wilhelmina is also present during the demonstration of her daughter's radio set by NSF CEO Dubois. Wilhelmina is very interested. The last time that she enjoyed a radio transmission was in 1918 at the Radio Exposition in the Zoo in The Hague.

In 1928 the Royal set was renewed by NSF. The NSF W1 was returned to the NSF factories in Hilversum, and the radio chassis was replaced by a modern NSF 4 chassis and installed again in the Royal Palace.
