That will be the DAC10 then Andrew. A lot were issued by the RNIB to blind people as once pre-set, the buttons were easy to operate to select tuned-in stations. I think that's where a lot of DAC10s originate from. They're not as straightforward to restore as the DAC90A due to the 'switchery' associated with tuning, which apart from the added complication, make it difficult to gain access to some components. They seem to be prone to cracks appearing at the corners of the plastic escutcheon. There's a good write-up about restoring one here:
