    Aucklanders! Why wait for local re-broadcasts when you can SCOOP the WAR NEWS direct on NATIONAL!

    The Short-wave band is alive with stations providing the latest war news as it breaks! London and Paris are on the air (in English) almost hourly! News flashes from America keep you posted up to the minute! And then, if you desire, German, Russian, and Italian stations can be heard (in English) with their versions. Decide now to be independent of local re-broadcasts to get the news direct...hours, hours ahead on a NATIONAL World-wave Radio. £19/10/-

    5-Valve superhet dual wavetable chest model receiver.

    Manufactured by Radio (1936) Ltd for John Burns & Co Ltd.
