Van Ruyten 104

5 valve, AC powered superhet.

Conventional circuit for 1933 except the power transformer feeds the tube filaments only. The high-tension is rectified direct from mains power. Therefore the chassis could have 240V if the active and neutral power connections are reversed.

Chassis used in the  Van Ruyten Table Model, Wooden Fret.

VAN RUYTEN 5 VALVE MIDGET

Tilbury & Lewis have announced a 5V midget receiver known as Model 104.

This handsome 5V midget superhet has been released only after months of experimental work. Tilbury & Lewis feel that they are giving the trade a receiver that is attractive in appearance, performance and price. Every feature of the larger receivers such as A.V.C., diode detection, pentode amplification and vernier tuning has been incorporated. Under normal operating conditions every worth-while interstate station is easily obtainable. The set is remarkably free from background noise. Extraordinarily fine reproduction has been obtained, due to circuit refinements and a matched Rola Speaker.

Model 104 is a 5 valve A.C. superhet with 6 tuned circuits, using 6A7, 6D6, 6B7, 42 and 80. The 6A7 is the new Pentagrid converter valve. The 6D6 is the Duplex Diode Pentode serving three functions of diode detector, automatic volume control and Pentode audio amplifier. The 42 is the Pentode power amplifier, and the 80 is a full wave rectifier. The set is equipped with a Rola speaker, manual volume control conservatively rated transformer, mains voltage adjustment and vernier dial with planetary movement.

For the housing of this efficient receiver something out of the ordinary was necessary, and how well this has been achieved can be readily seen from the cabinet illustrated, which shows the matched blend of inlaid walnut and bronze metal in modern design.

The trade are here offered a receiver which they should find no difficulty in selling quickly. It has behind it a firm who are well established in the radio field who are equipped to producing superior receiver. Enquiries should be directed to Tilbury & Lewis’ factory, Margaret Street, Richmond, Vic.

At a price of £16/1/6 (Vic) it is a receiver that should find a ready sale.
