YURI & VLADIMIR DESYATNIK |
| Vladimir Desyatnik is an electrical engineer by education and profession, which really helps us a great deal when repairing WWII radios. His education took place in the 1940s and 50s, when the vacuum tube was the dominant technology. He is now retired and has plenty of time to work on the radios with me. |
| The purpose of this site and our hobby is to learn about the communications technology of military organizations in the 20th century. Part of this includes the communications equipment of Third Reich Germany. The regime which ruled Germany during this time was criminal one, and we deplore its ideology and atrocities committed against the peaceful peoples of Europe. This site has absolutely no political purpose or affiliation whatsoever. |
| We are always open to new information, recommendations or suggestions. All new information is very welcome. |

These are my power supplies. The most interesting two are on the top left. The lower one provides up to 330 V - 800 mA, and the top one 1000 V - 200 mA. These rare power supplies are used to test transmitters. Both use vacuum tubes. |
