Hey Beofans,
Guess what I found! Who knows what this is? Full details to follow in my next YouTube video at link Thanks to Ulf Lundin for sharing this amazing B&O rarity...

My B&O Icons:
A Hyperbo 5 RG Steel if I'm not mistaken.
Hi beocool,
Yes, but this one has a very special story to tell! Full details to follow on YouTube in the next few days...
Kind regards, Steve.

That'll be a replica I think? Someone at the Struer Museum said they were so rare the one they have on display isn't an original.
A truly legendary piece of design!
Hi Lee,
Good guess, but the truth is far more interesting... This isn't a mere replica, it actually works! Full details to follow shortly on my YouTube channel!
Kind regards, Steve.

That one looks really fine. Can't see a scratch from here 🙂
It has four adjustable switches, and they are square and looks to be of some shiny metal.
I have seen another Hyperbo 5 RG Steel which had black adjustable switches. Also four.
I guess they used different switches over time in the production of these RadioGrams.
I have attached a photo to my reply here. It shows a model that is different from yours and the one I refered to above.
It has five white switches and it has a metal pipe "leg" that I guess supports the weight.
Do you Steve or anyone else know why this one is different from the others, and is it still a Hyperbo 5 RG Steel? Or does it have another name?
Thank you
Hi Champbeo,
Yes, I also found that picture - as far as I am aware it is another Hyperbo 5RG but I guess someone with more vintage B&O knowledge will correct if I'm wrong! Full details to be shared on my YouTube channel from 9am (UK time) today here: link
