Siemens RK 777

Manufactured by Sangean, Taiwan.

In 1996, Sangean presented an exceptionally sucessful receiver: the ATS-909. The almost identical set has been sold in Germany as Siemens RK 777; as the price tag of the receivers with the Siemens brand was much higher, then the Sangean original, only quite few sets have been sold.

A while after Siemens withdraw from the domestic radio market, the Sangean receiver was imported and sold as Technisat ATS-909 which was a quite popular set in Germany over many years.
