  • Notes
  • The Weconomy Amplifier No. 44010 is designed primarily to fit into the receiver compartment of the Western Electric Crystal Pattern Receiving Set.
    Two Wecovalves are used, and no accumulators are therefore necessary. Terminals are provided for two dry cells for filament heating and for a HT battery of 45 volts for the plate circuit.

    Complete with Western Electric high-efficiency transformers, condensers, etc., and clearly marked terminals, this Amplifier when used with a Crystal Set will reproduce speech or music from a local Broadcasting Station in sufficient power to operate a Loudspeaker successfully. If desired, it can be used to secure at least double the range of the Crystal Set by retaining the Head Receivers.
