  • Notes

  • Weconomy HF Amplifier & Detector, No. 4408

    Fitted with Wecovalves, is arranged for high-frequency amplification and detection, and is complete with tuning inductance, filament resistance, etc., to cover the Broadcast wavelength band of 300 to 500 metres.

    That is, it will tune to any of the B.B.C. Stations without additional coils. By adding Igranic Coils, for which two holders are provided, the tuning can be increased up to 3,000 metres.

    The power of this Set is such that with a standard aerial it will receive B.B.C. Stations within a wide radius. This is accomplished by using a tuned anode circuit and a certain degree of reaction. The Set gives a purity of tone better than that of other reaction sets on the market and is therefore suitable for use with Loud Speakers. Two dry cells are required for the filaments and a 45-volt battery for the plate circuit.
