  • Bemerkung

  • The Unidyne 2‑Valve Receiving Set was sold by Bower Electric Ltd. as a complete constructional kit based on the “Unidyne” circuit described in contemporary wireless articles. The design was promoted as a low‑tension receiver requiring no H.T. battery, offering low running costs and a “purer tone” than conventional sets of the period.

    The kit was marketed specifically to beginners, with the claim that no tools or prior wireless experience were needed. All components were supplied pre‑drilled, engraved, or prepared for straightforward assembly.

    The set was supplied with two Thorpe K4 four‑electrode valves, which were advertised as specially designed to give the best results with the Unidyne circuit. Bower Electric held the sole rights for supplying the complete kit.
