The AM/FM Hunter RP38A was introduced in the early 1970's as an improved version of the RP38 Hunter.
It is a three waveband portable covering the Medium, Long and VHF FM bands.
AM reception is from an internal ferrite rod and there is a swivel base telescopic aerial for VHF. 
There is a separate plexiglass covered VHF tuner module.
A special circuit adjusts the operating conditions correctly as battery volts decrease minimizing distortion at low voltages and extending battery life. 1.5 Wats is available from the audio module feeding a large elliptical speaker and there are separate rotary bass and treble controls.
Automatic AFC gives frequency correction and station locking on VHF.
There are sockets for headphones and external or car aerial connection.
The radio is housed in a strong wooden cabinet with black leather trimmings and polished teak ends. It has a strong metal carry handle.

undamaged and very clean aluminium grille and handle, the black leathercloth is free from any bad scratches and tears.

It is very rare to find a radio which is nearly 50 years old in this remarkable condition - a great example for any transistor radio collectors or someone who likes the real vintage radio quality and amazing sound.
