  • Notes
  • The Ritz Airflo model was introduced in 1934 and then again in 1946, after the 2nd world war. I am assuming that this model is from 1946/47 - although Jonathan Hill states in Radio!Radio that the model re-introduced in 1947 had Short Wave as well. Wireless & Electrical Trader Sheet is possible more accurate in stating that the 1946 model had only MW and LW.
