  • Notes
  • The catalog names this Lafayette model C-18. The C-18 is a 4 tube AC TRF with direct drive type dial, electro-dynamic speaker and illuminated scale. It is the cheapest radio in this catalog, just 5 cents cheaper than C-30, also a TRF. Unfortunately the catalog is not naming the tubes and Rider's does not show a schematic for the Lafayette C-18.

    The list price for model C-18 is not given and lafayette puts a price of $ 6.95 - below telling that the tubes cost addl. $ 1.95. See details and summaries for the models of this catalog.
