• Notes
• The "First" Crosley Radio Receiver: In the October 1921 issue of Radio News and QST magazines Crosley started advertising their first radio for sale to the general public. It was called the "Crosley Crystal Receiver". One month later in the November issues of Radio News and QST magazines, Crosley dropped the company name and added the name Harko Radio Receiver to the same crystal receiver and the "Harko" family of radios was born. In February 1922 Crosley started advertising the 1-Tube Harko Senior Radio Receiver the first Crosley tube receiver. Click here for a summary of early Crosley and history.
