  • Notes

  • This nine-tube Neutrodyne radio model 98 was manufactured by the King Radio Corporation USA. It was named King Imperial 98 in the USA. In Canada it was sold exclusively by "The T. EATON Company Ltd." throughout Canada - with a slightly different cabinet - you see it best on the stretcher. The name there is Viking, perhaps also Viking 98. The model 98 has a push-pull output and an Utah dynamic speaker. Single control with illuminated dial marked in metres and kilocycles.
