  • This equipment comprises three simple units — the first a compact 6-valve A.V.C. Superhet., including generator unit; the second a full 6in. electro dynamic speaker mounted in a scientifically designed baffle; the third, remote control attachment suitable for mounting on or under the dash-board or on the steering column.

    The on-off switch and volume control is in the form of a key, removable to prevent unauthorised use. The 6-valve powerful Superhet. is capable of receiving broadcast transmissions over long distances. It is supplied complete with full set of suppression gear. Aerial and installation extra.

    It is the same as the Tasma Model 315.
