THE HISTORY OF THE OBJECT. In 1927, in the creative and daring atmosphere of the time, A/S Jan Wessel Radiofabrikk Radionette was born, marking the beginning of a revolutionary Norwegian adventure in the world of radio. Specializing in the production of radios for network operation, Radionette becomes a pioneer, introducing Norway's first radio suitable for home use. 1950 marks a turning point with the launch of the Kurer, a versatile portable radio, suitable for both mains and battery power, a symbol of freedom and innovation. The Kurer Transi, the first fully transistorized radio, follows this successful trajectory, cementing Radionette's reputation as an industry leader. Radionette's creativity doesn't stop here. The company breaks new ground with the introduction of portable combinations of radios and turntables, as well as radios and tape recorders, fusing music and technology in ever more innovative ways. In 1958, Radionette further expanded its horizons, entering the television market with the launch of its first television. However, despite its pioneering spirit and its undoubted influence in the industry, Radionette begins to encounter financial difficulties. By 1972, losses grew to DM 3.7 million a year, leading to the sad decision to sell the company to Tandberg, another Norwegian audio giant. 1975 marks the end of an era: the Radionette name disappears from the market. But his innovative spirit, his ability to adapt and shape the world of radio and consumer electronics remain etched in history. Radionette is not just a brand; it is a symbol of the ingenuity and audacity that characterized an era of great technological discoveries.
