  • The models JA-35 is the cheapest radio in this Spring-Summer catalog for 1937 and Lafyette is writing "This little wonder will exceed your highest expectations." JA-36 is the export model and JA-35-P with "Personic Ear" in this family. The TRS models receive broadcast 190 - 555 meters and only the export model JA-36 covers also long waves 800 - 2000 meters. The JA-36 has the same case as the JA-35 but the dial covers also the long waves. We don't count the ballast tube K55BX.
