Hobbs registered the trademark “Voxo” as a preparation for coughs, colds and bronchitis in July 1924.[2] In early 1925, radio station 3LO transmitted radio concerts and these could be listened to at various authorised Listening Posts in throughout the suburbs of Melbourne of which Hobbs chemist was one.[3] Perhaps the Voxo crystal Set was sold to the listeners at these concerts.
