Description: 
The main fields of interest at IRPA are sound-focusing devices and 
radio reception. Work has been done on the development of receiving tubes, 
transistors, transistor amplifier circuits, ferrite rod antennas, and a 
high-quality VHF receiver. Acoustic systems for both radio receivers and 
colum loudspeakers have been developed. Work has been done to employ a 
method of standardized "mass" production to the "Lyuks", "Druzhba", "Aktaua", 
"Baykal", "Vostok 57", "Mayak", and "Donets" radio receivers and phonographs. 
A solar battery was developed for use as the electric power source of small 
radio receivers such as the "Sputnik". 
This institute publishes a Trudy at regular intervals. It was 
formerly known as the Central Radio Laboratory.
