GE P-990A World Monitor

The GE P-990A was sold between 1964 and 1967, priced at $125 and is yet another fine example of heavy-duty, old-school design, featuring a massive steel chassis housed in a beautiful two-tone leather covered cabinet. It is simply beautiful to look at with an attractive multi-colored dial scale, another heavy radio from the time when weight meant quality and this GE is no exception. According to its designer, Conrad Jutson (who also was responsible for the popular P-780 series and several other projects), the P-990 World Monitor was GE’s answer to the Zenith Trans-oceanic but was designed to sell at a much lower price. We’ll take a close look to see how well they achieved their goal.
