There are three RF amplifier stages ahead of the detector and two AF stages after the detector. The receiver is of the neutrodyne design and incorporates a special “bridge circuit”, a design patented by Canadian Marconi.
    In 1924, the base price of the radio was $250. Fitted with tubes , A and B batteries and Splitdorf earphones, the price jumped to $345.
