Does anyone here remember what was the precursor to the Philips Radionic
series?

I am thinking of about 1963 which is a few years before the Philips X20
et seq came about.

I lusted after one of those kits but with 5 of us brothers and sisters,
the Xmas budget limited each of us to Xmas presents costing £1 only and
the electronics kit was about £3.


I had a Trix electrical set (1950 ish).


Clive Sinclair offered a few kits for radios and audio amps.


Surely they were to construct specific devices rather than multiple
different ones/experimentation, which is what this thread is about.
