Bandspreizung (Feinabstimmung); BFO; Noise Limiter; Originalpreis $33,50, das Gerät wurde auch als Echophone EC-1A (nicht zu verwechseln mit EC-1) für $29,50 verkauft (siehe Bild). Um Verwechslungen zu vermeiden: Echophone EC-1 und EC-1B haben frontseitig zwei Schiebeschalter, nur der EC-1A und Hallicrafters S-41 besitzen vier davon. lt.Moore stammt auch der EC-1B von 1945 (Manual).
Mein EC-1A hat induktive Bandspreizung.
