Brand-New Sending and Receiving Set Complete
There are 157,000 people in the United States who know better than Block's why the United States was willing to fork over $1,100 for each of these magnificent transmitting and receiving sets. 57,000 of them were licensed radio amateurs before Pearl Harbor silenced amateur radio. 100,000 of them are now awaiting FCC licenses. These 157,000 are known among themselves and to awestruck onlookers as "hams." Every one of them knows thousands of fearful and wonderful facts about radio equipment. Block's, for once, is stumped. *We do know that these sets were built by our govern-
YOU GET 3 SETS IN ONE—15 TUBES
SET A, for telephone and telegraph includes: 6-tube superheterodyne receiver and 6-tube MOPA transmitter with 807 final amplifier. Grid modulated for telephone. Specialized circuits make this set ideal for network operations. The frequency range of 2 to 8 megacycles includes | the 80 meter and 40 meter amateur bands.

ment for the British and the Russians. Sets just like them were used in the great tanks that stopped the Nazi tidal wave at Stalingrad. People whose talk bristles with "variometers" and "half-wave antennae" tell us that you'd pay $400 for the spare parts alone, if you could find them. These sets are complete. The facts are below. Read them if you can understand them. We think if you're smart enough to want this set, you'll hurry! Mail and telephone (Rl ley 8421) orders filled. Sorry, no C.O.D.'s Every set is brand new. All sales final.
MADE BY ZENITH AND R. C. A.
Two complete antenna systems are included with mobile type mountings: I. A 235 megacycle half-wave antenna. 2. A 12-foot unit with variometer loading to resonate the antenna system
from 2 to 8 megacycles.
There are six sets of headphones and microphones.
The equipment included in the set fills three large packing cases. A complete description of every part covers three printed pages. The sets go direct to you from Block's Warehouse in the original export packing cases.
Experts will be here to explain all about the equipment.
These sets are ideally suited to licensed radio amateurs. They are also excellent for schools and colleges in need of fine laboratory equipment. “Small commen cial tations may buy this equipment-at a fraction of its original cost.
