AVC (Automatic Volume Control), built in antenna and tone control. Broadcast 220-550 m SW from 15 m. For broadcast, a pre-selector circuit is employed in conjunction with a low frequency IF amplifier. Class "A" triode push-pull power amplification. Twin speed dial (shift lever under the main tuning knob). This family includes also the "Trio Wave Superhets" with principally the same chassis plus long waves as F-34 (Chassis only), F-35 and F-40 (phono radio). We have not found a schematic source for this model family.

    The model Dual Wave F-36 is listed at $ 145.00 but the Lafayette price is $ 57.75. See details for the models of this catalog.
