Having been the first in Australia to introduce Radio Sets which could be assembled at home,United Distributors Limited have been continually experimenting to improve them. The result oftheir investigations is now made patent in “Umakit” Sets.
These are not the cheapest sets available, but they are the cheapest sets in which every detail is offirst quality, reliable, durable, perfect.
They can be put together at home, with a pair of pliers. The circuit diagram and photographs of the front and interior which accompany each set leave no need for guesswork or experiment. They are so simple that a child can follow them.
