  • Notes
  • F.B. Chambers & Co. Audion Valve Detector dating from the early wireless era (circa 1913).

    Chambers started buying Audions from McCandless in June of 1913. Purchases would total 60 for the year 1913.

    This set design was likely influenced by the last version of the Wallace Valve Detector that came out in the fall of 1913.
