  • Shape
  • Console with any shape - in general
  • Notes
  • Three dials (primary tuning control knobs). Error in Radio Collector's Guide 1921-1932: The "Consomello Grand" as a console has not an untuned RF amplifier, but 2 tuned RF stages and the Detector - plus 3 Audio stages - the same as the table model from a year before. We show the advertisement of the table model also here because we could not find yet a picture of the console - which might be the same on the top. In any case for the table model there is already a compartment for both "A" and "B" batteries as well as built in loud speaker. In the Radio Collector's Guide we find for some models the name Consomello and for others Consonello (n instead of m). This is probably correct since the distinction is not only once made - only ads will hopefully tell (in the future).
