<日本へ里帰りしたラジオ>

CHANNEL MASTER
MODEL 6520

これは1963年頃に日本の三洋電機が製造してアメリカのチャンネルマスター社へOEM供給していた輸出向けラジオです。

当時は日本の電機メーカーは切磋琢磨し、良い製品を作って世界に羽ばたこうとしていた時代。航空機で例えるならは滑走路から離陸して目標高度に向かってエンジンをフルパワーで飛行していた時代の製品です。

デザインも造りも良く、手抜きやコストダウンした感じは全くありません。
そんなラジオが私の手元に届きました。

Just this past day, Rare Noggin Stuff yet again comes through by dumping firmware from three more feature phones!

* #Audiovox CDM-8912 (T115SP0T13.154)
* #Kyocera DuraPlus E4233 (1.305SP)
* #Sanyo SCP-8100 (1.013BM, Bell Mobility branded)

This also revealed that the DuraPlus may have also went by "PRO-375" some time early in development.

Also... BlueSky now! Follow oldphonepreserv.bsky.social if you'd like.

Thanks to another recent donation from Rare Noggin Stuff, the following #Sanyo feature phones had their firmwares preserved:
* Sanyo Juno (1.000BT and 1.007SP, both Boost Mobile and Sprint versions)
* Sanyo PRO-200 (1.011SP, ReadyMobile "branded")

Outside of that though, they've been on a good winning streak finding JTAG pinouts and dumping feature phone firmwares themselves, so definitely give the Dumbphone Repo a look if you haven't in a while! mega.nz/folder/2aoVnJJJ#ovZJG4
