  • Notes
  • The TRESCO Concert Type Receiver consists of the Tresco Tuner and Detector regenerative receiver, a Tresco Two Stage Amplifier, a wood horn built in the cabinet, and a loud speaking outfit. Space is provided for batteries and charging devices inside the cabinet. The cabinet is finished in a beautiful mahogany. When the set is not in use the doors can be closed making it a striking piece of furniture. This set was sold with two different drivers. It sold for $200 with a Dictogrand loud speaking unit and $220 with a Thorophone loud speaking unit. A set of tubes, necessary batteries and phones was available for an additional $50.
