The DX 100U was the international version of the DX 100B. The main difference with its cousin for the American market was that the mains transformer was designed for European voltages. Other differences include simplified crystal facility (only one position), a different pattern in the two-tone paint of the front panel, and a different tube complement : 6CH6 tubes are used instead of 12BY7 and KT88 tubes (the British version of the 6CA7) replace the 1625 tubes in the modulator.
