THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €., FRIDAY, MARCH 9, 1928. The Bandbox is a genuine Neutrodyne receiver—costlier to build than the common losser type of circuit used in competitive sets but far superior in per- = OPERATES FROM LIGHT SOCKET wenitoty nd shurs seeciots of e Baniben v s, T s INO Batteries—No Eliminators—Just Press the Button on This NEW express themselves forcibly in the ease with which you shut out overlapping programs and enjoy far off stations as though they were local. USES NEW AC TUBES 170 to 185 volts on the plate of the power output tube! That's what gives clear, undistorted music in terrific volume! That's what you must get in radio to fully enjoy the entertainment of the air. To be fully satisfied with less than that you are still with radio of 1926. Comparative checkings of competitive radios show interesting figures. Under identical testing conditions, the Bandbox shows a full 170 to 185 volts on the plate of the 171 power output tube. Other radios show 100 to 110 and 130 to 140 volts on the plate of the output tube. The 171 power tube should have around 180 volts. This better than 40 per cent superiority in one case and 25 per cent in another is the difference between today’s radio and yesterday's! A ‘comparative test with any other radio receiving set on the market will convince you of Crosley superiority and of the truth of every Crosley claim. Contributing much to the success of this 1928 wonder radio is the Mershon Condenser in the power element of the set. It is a patent device of small size, yet great capacity. Not being paper, the danger of its blowing out is entirely removed, so that the desired heavy voltage can be used to produce ths acoustic and volume results so greatly desired. A Volume Contrel of*new and patentable design. The double unit at $90 provides console cabinet installation in ALL kinds of consoles. It permits the receiver to occupy the minimum amount of space on table or shelf. The power element can be tucked away on a lower shelf or behind a curtain. The 704 or single unit of $95 is for those who want the entire set in ome cabinet. The two sets are identical in elements, design and performance.. The physical difference is solely to meet the human differences of taste, necessity and price! The size of the 704 is 17% long by 12%" wide and is 615" high. Thus you have the qualities of leadership—a superiority in every phase. With such an indication of value the prices of the Bandboxes are perhaps the most phenomenal features of the sets. These prices are determined solely by sales possibilities and manufacturing operations. Highly developed in both de- partments, it is with great pride that Crosley announces these LOW PRICES, for in no place has the Bandbox been cheapened to reach a price!
