  • Notes
  • Model 44 was an updated version of the model 43 "all wave" receiver, with coverage from the broadcast band through 23 MHz in four bands. There were four individual models in the series, depending on cabinet style.

    The early version (1933) of the model 44B cathedral had a recessed panel, while the late version (1934) had a simpler flat-front cabinet. Model 44H (1933-34) was an ornate highboy, with an arched control panel and six narrow vertical bars at the sides of the speaker grill, as well as additional embellishment. Model 44X (1934) was a floor-type console in a classical style, with three round pillars in front of the speaker grill.
