Standardized simple radio receiver type made in Nazi Germany
The Volksempfänger (German: [ˈfɔlksʔɛmˌpfɛŋɐ] , "people’s receiver") was a range of low-cost vacuum tube radio receivers produced in Germany during the 1930s. It was developed by engineer Otto Griessing at the request of Joseph Goebbels, the Reich Minister of Propaganda of the Nazi government. Its purpose was to make radio reception technology affordable to the general public. Goebbels realized the great propaganda potential of this relatively new medium and thus considered the widespread availability of receivers highly important.
