  • Notes
  • The Saxon 3-Valve Loudspeaker Set is the marvellous super set for 1928. Very few 4-valve Sets can equal the performance of the SAXON 3, either for purity, volume, range, or selectivity. 48 stations (more than half at good loudspeaker strength), Daventry on loudspeaker 1,200 miles away, and over 20 stations on loudspeaker in the Orkney Islands have actually been received.

    All latest improvements are incorporated no coils are required, as the new SAXON all-wave tuner covers all wavelengths from 200 to 2,000 metres by merely turning a knob.

    Easily built by any beginner in two hours. All panels are drilled, and most of the components are assembled and ready for wiring. No soldering is required. 24-page instruction book and wiring diagram 3d. post free.

    Possibly incorporates the Quadricoil tuner assembly.
