STORY. ========================= * Russia and USSR ---------------------- - Since 1984, the radio receiver "Giala-303" has been produced by the Grozny Radio Engineering Plant. ''Giala-303'' portable receiver of the third complexity group. It is intended for reception in the ranges of DV, SV, KB and VHF. The KB range is divided into 2 subranges. The receiver has automatic frequency control (AFC) and silent tuning for VHF, treble tone control, fine tuning indicator, power on indication. An external antenna, grounding, telephones can be connected to the radio receiver. Detail in Russian + photo: http://www.rw6ase.narod.ru/index1/radiopriem/rp_pp/rp_pp1/giala303.html (http://www.rw6ase.narod.ru/) - The portable radio receiver "Giala-310" from the I quarter of 1986 was produced by the Grozny Radio Engineering Plant. The radio receiver ''Giala-310'' is an analogue of the radio receiver ''Giala-410''. It, like the previous one, is designed to receive broadcasting stations in the LW and MW bands. Reception is made on the built-in magnetic antenna. The radio has jacks for connecting an external antenna, grounding, headphones and external power. Autonomous power is supplied from six A-343 cells or two 3336L batteries or an external power source with a voltage of 9 volts.

The receiver did not fit into the usual line of models of dull and gray receivers and radiograms in wooden cases, like twins similar to each other and not changing in design for years. The mass media, mainly in newspapers and magazines of those years, very effectively described the appearance of the Zvezda-54 radio receiver as a huge breakthrough in design design, as the latest fashion, which gave people hope for the onset of a new, brighter life. In fact, everything was much simpler and more prosaic.

Next to them there is an inscription "dBµ". It looks like a field strength meter. But what does it really show? Well, it really is an indication of signal strength. Let's dive into how this works and see how it compares to the "classic" S-meter, the field strength meter.
