- Notes
-
Valves/Tubes from replacement lists. "Super Mains Pentode" so will drive external loudspeaker.
"Westinghouse" Metal rectifier for HT from mains, LT is 4V AC, so unclear how the optional "DC Eliminator" for this model works.
There is a similar style transportable model Battery Three. One of the earliest UK models with cord and pointer on linear tuning scale.
Perhaps frame aerial as operation without external aerial advertised.
