  • The BEL-A-TONE "TOT" is the most compact set ever produced in Australia. Size, 12½” long, 8” high, and 6½” deep.

    NO INSTALLATION IS REQUIRED — Just plug into your nearest power point. It is so portable that it can be carried from room to room, in fact from home to home. Can be placed almost anywhere — on the breakfast table, alongside the bed, on the veranda, etc. All component parts are full size — exactly the same as those found in Console Models. Embodies 6 and 7 7-pin valves and a Dynamic Speaker. Highly polished Piano finish inlaid Cabinet. Receives all local and Interstate stations.

    The cabinet is similar to the Van Ruyten Model 104.
