  • Notes

  • This kit was described in both the Australasian Radio World, August 1, 1936, and The Bulletin, August 12, 1936, page 54.

    An alternative audio output circuit was available with higher fidelity making use of the wide range output transformer but with lower power output using an 30 driver and 19 class B output valve.

    The kit was advertised for £9/17/6 including batteries and no speaker.
