  • A. W. Bowman Progressive Long Wave Set Set consisted of the Three-Coil Mounting with Variable Condenser panel, the Vacuum Tube Detector Unit and the One-Stage Amplifier panel. The wavelength range was adjustable by changing the plug in coils in the Three-Coil Mounting.
    In the 1921-1923 Sears, Roebuck and Co. Radio catalogs, Sears offered a series of Unit panels that were produced by the Bowman Company. The panels were each 5 inches square and could be joined together to form a complete receiver.
