  • Notes
  • Two dials (primary tuning control knobs). 6 ohm rheos point to the use of UV201s. For UV201As (0.25 A) a higher resistance would be more suitable. This is actually a combination of "Harko Sr." plus "R.F.T.A." plus "Two-Step Amplifier". The model X costs in 1922 only one $ less than if somebody would have bought the three single units. That was a good argument to keep such parts and to buy one or two units more to achieve a better result instead of giving back a unit because of the diffigulties in this time of high sunspot interference when sets without regeneration had poor and only local reception.
