- Notes
-
The Selector Super stands out. As in the previous models, the superheterodyne type of circuit is employed, and the intermediate frequency stages are adequately shielded, thereby entirely eliminating long-wave "pick-up."
A large Amplion cone speaker is now fitted, and the low-frequency stages have been designed to operate it to its best advantage. The voltage of the high-tension accumulator has been increased and correspondingly the volume of reception is greater. The H.T. accumulator has a capacity of 1,500 milliamps and the L.T., 40 ampere hours actual.
A ball-hearing turntable is attached to the base of their instrument.Superheterodyne receiver with combined oscillator-detector, three IF stages, and two LF amplifiers, with transformer and choke coupling. Wave range 200-600 and 1000-2000 metres. Enclosed frame aerial.
