  • Notes
  • The Qualitone Type BR Receiver was a 1-Tube regenerative receiver manufactured for The Qualitone Company by Tri-City Electrical Supply Company (Tresco) who owned an Armstrong Regenerative Patent. This receiver was identical to the Beckley Ralston Blue Ribbon Regenerative Receiver, and the Telephone Maintenance Co. Telmaco Type B-R Reciever. This set was also very similar to theTri-City Radio Electric Supply set sold by the Steinite Laboratories Steinite 1-Tube receiver.
