  • Notes
  •                  “Signal” Home Assembly Set, Model “P”.
        To meet the demands for an inexpensive, yet efficient and simply operated Single Valve Receiver, we are offering the “Signal” Home Assembly Set, containing all parts complete, except, of course, Batteries, Phones, Valves and Aerial.
    The picture and diagram of this set is shown.The design has been so simplified that the set can he easily built and operated by any beginner. The set is built for a UV199 or C299 dry cell tube, but by changing the socket to a standard socket or English socket, it can be operated with a wet battery. It can be wired with or without regeneration.
        The cabinet is genuine oak, substantially built of ¾” material, morticed, and has mission finish. All the parts are standard, high grade and thoroughly reliable, no cheap material being used. The panel is of genuine bakelite engraved and drilled ready for mounting parts.
        Several hundreds of these sets were sold the first week that the sample was shown, and every dealer in Australia should have one of these sets on his counter.
         Many dealers have bought one assembled set for demonstration and several unassembled sets for sale. Diagrams and circulars are furnished without charge.
