Look for a Becker Europa II.
Has AM/FM, stereo, and they are period correct.

Hi gcla,

Stick with a german radio because of the FM and ability to hook an mp3 player to them.
Here is a Becker Europa TG. They do come with schwarz buttons, which would suit the DC better.

I haven't dealt with them, sorry.

I use a guy in Emerald to do my repairs. He also has a large collection of German radio that he repairs and sells.

Let me know if you want his details.
