- Notes
-
7 valve superhet kitset radio with RF stage and push-pull audio output.
The IF frequency depended on the brand of coil kit selected.
Designed by A. G. Hull, Technical Editor from the Wireless Weekly with full constructional details in the June 2, 1933 edition.
The kit was sold using Lekmek or RCS coil kits by Levenson’s, Fox & Mac Gillycuddy and others at various prices around £13/- depending on the quality of components and valve brands supplied
This design is believed to be the first ever utilisation of the split load or cathodyne phase splitter. In this case, however, as the detector circuit is floating, and referenced to the cathode of the 55, the stage has gain.
