Radio receivers A-8 (left) and A-8M (right) since 1955 produced the Murom radio plant and the Leningrad factory Krasnaya Zarya. A-8 is a dual-band, six-lamp superheterodyne. It is intended for installation in the cars "Victory" "M-20, and the model" A-8M "in the cars" Moskvich "M-402, M-403. The power of the receivers is carried out from a car battery with a voltage of 12.8 volts, with minus on the mass. The power of the anode circuit of the receiver is provided by the vibrator. The kit consists of a receiving unit, a power supply unit, a loudspeaker with a reflective board and a cable connecting the antenna. The connection to the power supply and the loudspeaker is made by cables. Tuning to the frequency of the radio station is made by ferro inductors (by moving the cores in the coils). The scale of the receiver is graduated at UE. The range selector knob is combined with the tuning knob. When it is pressed in, the LW range is switched on, when the CB is drawn out. Rated output power 1.5 watts. Nonlinear distortion factor of 7%. DV ranges: 150 ... 415 kHz, SV: 520 ... 1500 kHz. IF 465 kHz. Sensitivity in the ranges: DV 250 µV, CB 150 µV. Selectivity in the ranges of DV -20 dB, CB -18 dB. The attenuation of the mirror channel 20 dB. Power consumption 45 watts. The receiver dimensions are 202x72x202 mm, BP - 176x72x137 mm. Reflective boards 194x150x8 mm. The weight of any set of 7.3 kg. In 1955, when upgrading the car "Victory", the receiver "A-8" was already installed nominally. And since 1956, the A-8M receivers began to be installed regularly on Moskvich-402 and later 403 cars, the AR-44 telescopic antenna was installed vertically.
