Seven-valve World Range console. Automatic volume control.
There is an error in the advertisement: while mentioning "Dual Wave", the radio is said to have three wave bands: 1600 to 550 kc, 13 to 40 m, and 40 to 90 m. Model number 772 seems to indicate 2 bands (7 valves, cabinet type, 2 bands). If that's the case, the denomination "World Range" most probably is wrong.
Price: 40 gns.
