Dear Francesco

Normally, those DKE’s were built until ’45 in different(!) radio factories in Germany and occupied countries like Austria (Ingelen). Here the original scheme with the tubes VCL11 and VY2. By the way, during wartime, minor changes are made to save material!

After the war, let’s say until the year 1950, a lot of spare parts for this type of radio were still available. This was not the case for the tubes! So, the practical solution for this shortcoming was the use of the military pentode RV12P2000, which was ‘on the market’ at high quantities! In this difficult post-war period, alteration suggestions were published frequently. Look here:

But also well known radio manufacturers made use of old stocks and put in the RV12P2000 or other low-priced tubes. You will understand, without a picture it is difficult to say, what is what.

---- Was originally the receiver built without "a variable antenna coupling coil" ?
No.

---- Where can I find spare parts for this receiver?
Perhaps at radio collector meetings?

Don’t hesitate to ask more questions, Francesco.
