  • Notes

  • Model TA201 provides a picture of 6¼” by 5” and this low figure brings television practically within reach of all.
    Control is exceedingly simple and there are only three, contrast, brightness, and focus, that need to be touched; tuning is fixed.

    The cabinet size is 19⅓” by 17” by 16” and is of polished walnut.

    This unit is intended for use in conjunction with an existing radio receiver, and there is no loudspeaker. After the detector, the sound signal is amplified by a single stage and is then of sufficient amplitude to be applied to the pick-up sockets of an ordinary radio receiver. On the vision side, there are three RF stages instead of the super-heterodyne circuit.

    A stand is available at 2 gns. extra
