  • 404C Chateau, two speed changer 16-E-2, remote Aladdin possible
    Cabinet: Royal Hawaian Koa wood with tinted floral inlays.Model series 404 Chateau has been made from late 1933 as as 404A, 404B (1933/34), 404C (1934/35), 404D (1935/36) and 404E for season 1936/37.

    Chassis:
    The series 300C and 400C were made with either broadcast only or as "All-Wave" receiver for BC, LW and SW.
    We still have to find the right schematic and a cabinet photo.

    The Capehart 400 series were introduced for season 1931/32 without suffix, followed by A 1932/33, B 1933/34 etc. through to season 1948-50 (P). See here the "Common information for the Capehart model pages for the 1930s and 1940s" and for the overview for Series 400 models here.
