  • Notes
  • Tangent Two-Valve Radiomatic Receiver.

    This is manufactured specially to work with the new Daventry Station, and we claim that even though it may be a bold claim, we can substantiate it; the Receiver obtains most satisfactory loudspeaker strength up to 100 miles. The whole instrument is designed and constructed according to Gent's best traditions.

    Also advertised as the Tangent Type "D" Two-Valve Radiomatic Receiver in 1925 advertisements.
