THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. D. T, MONDAY. FEBRUARY 14, 1927. ‘The greatest value in radio today Radiola 20, designed by the engineers of RCA, Westinghouse and General Electric HERE are 25 years of radio and 50 years of electrical experience behind every Radiola. Practically every basic bet- terment in the new science of radio has come from the research laboratories of RCA and itsassociated companies where over 200 radio engineers are employed. These engineers are responsible for the revolutionary improvements and refine- ments found in every Radiola. The same men have designed the leading broadcasting stations. They have made America the world center of transoce- anic radio. They refined and perfected the vacuum tube, made practical the super-heterodyne circuit and pioneered the uni-control and lighting socket-oper- ated receivers. They were the first to dis- pense with antenna, to do away with batteries, to seal vital parts in the mois- ture and dust proof “catacomb.” And they match the Radiola to the lat- est and best principles known. Your set and the great stations you will want most ; to hear come from the same laboratories f: —if your set is a Radiola. Surely the men who build these great stations know best what is needed to hear them. This set is specially devised to meet crowded broadcasting conditions As you know, selectivity is the great question today — the ability of your set to pick out the program that you want. Radiola 20 is twenty times as selective as the average antenna set. This has been proved inlaboratory tests again and again. It is proved every day in tens of thousands of homes. Radiola 20 is built for high selectivity, not only in view of the many stations of today, but also in view of the many more that may exist tomorrow. This set is notable for its selectivity at all wave lengths. Note this point. It will mean much to you when you have a radio set.

New principles employed In Radiola 20 are incorporated not just one feature above the ordinary in radio, but many. It challenges compar- ison in performance with sets at twice the price. Owners agree that it gives $200 performance for $78. New dis- coveries in electrics and acoustics are embodied in Radiola 20 which are ex- clusive with RCA. i One dial tuning For average home reception Radiola 20 has ONE DIAL tuning. For far- off stations there are two minor con- trols for finer tuning. It can beequipped to operate with batteries or with light socket devices, as you prefer. By means of a special circuit (exclusive with Radiola 20) it does the work of seven tubes, increasing the distance range. Marvel of musical reproduction Radiol 20 is famous for its ability to reproduce faint musical notes with un- distorted volume. Specially treated RCAmmmzm.s audio frequency transformers (exclu- sive with RCA) make possible the highest known degree of tone fidelity. Ask for a demonstration of Radiola 20 from any RCA .Authorized Dealer. Compare it with any set you please in actual performance. You will find out why more Radiolas are'in use than any other make of set. - STAR RADIO 409 11th St. N.W.
