  • One dial (primary tuning control knob). All of the Harko Senior receivers regenerative or non-regenerative covered the 150 to over 600 meters wave length range. Often later dated to 1923 by some radio guides, but production started in 1922 for this receiver.
    By September of 1922 the Crosley Harko Senior was being referred to in their advertising as the Harko Senior No. V. Shortly thereafter variations in the model were being offered at different prices. Options included Regenerative or Non-Regenerative, two different cabinets and engraved or stamped front panel.
    Technically this would be called the Crosley Model V-B with regular new style Adam brown mahogany cabinet, Non-regenerative, panel marked (or die stamped letters) and sold for $15 USD in the winter of 1922. This Model V-B was also sold with regeneration for $17 USD as the Harko Senior Regenerative
