    The valve-receiver illustrated has one detector-valve and one stage of audio frequency amplification. The outstanding feature of this set is that with a good aerial a loud-speaker can be used, due chiefly to the high-quality transformer fitted. Tuning is very selective, but, quite simple to operate, covering all wavelengths used by the Broadcasting Stations.
    PERFECT DESIGN AND FINISH, cabinet in polished mahogany, engraved matt-finished ebonite panel, instrument-finished, a really high-class job.
