It is the export version (uses American tube types) of the RA-17.  I have one, an interesting receiver with good performance.  Probably the best Wadley loop receiver in terms of overall performance and the 35 MM film display dial is pretty nice.

It is pretty complex and many problems would be VERY difficult to diagnose/repair via mail.  There are also MANY factory updates/bulletins depending upon when it was produced.  A lot of them are in the power supply area.
