Component parts total $52.90. Tubes required: 3—'24, 1—'27i 2—'45, 1—'80. Beautiful Cabinets The handsome new 707 table model shielding cabinet, finished in rich crystalline brown and gold, suitable for 722, 735, or 735DC, is only $7-75. Special ar- rangements have been made whereby these receivers may be housed in magnificent consoles especially adapted to them.

Realtors, Nashville, Tennessee "Silver-Marshall, Inc., Chicago: "I have had your 712 tuner for about ten days now ... over a hundred stations have been received ... I live within a mile of the towers of WSM (650 kc.) but am able to bring in WMAQ (Chicago, 670 kc.) and KPO (Oakland, Calif., 680 kc.) . . . I find I get results on a short indoor aerial which you claim only when using a longer outdoor antenna ... I am using 30 feet of rubber-covered wire tacked up in the attic ... Some night I may put up a decent aerial, connect it as you direct and bring in China." —M. G. Horkins The custom-built S-M 712 used by Mr. Horkins is a straight one-dial all-electric tuner, as easy to operate as the cheapest radio. Whether it's a world- beating set for your own home, or a custom design to build for "fastidious listeners"—the S-M 712 so far overshadows competition that comparison be- comes ludicrous. And if You Prefer a Still Lower Cost— "Silver-Marshall, Inc., Chicago: "I received my 722 ... That receiver is certainly the best for the money—KDKA or WBZ without any heterodyning at blasting volume, or WRVA and WPG, or WJZ and WBBM, or WEAF and WMAQ. (All four are 10 kc. separations.) WJZ, WGY, KDKA and CKAC, 4OO to 600 miles away, are regular day- light features ... I will keep on boosting Silver- Marshall sets like I have been doing since four years ago."—Gleason Belzile, Rimouski, Quebec, Canada. The New "Boss of theAir"-S-M712 Far more selective and sensi- tive even than the Sargent Ray- ment 710, the new all electric single control 712, with band- Biter and power detector, stands far beyond competition regard- less of price. Feeds perfectly into any audio amplifier, the S-M 677 being especially suitable and convenient. The 712 can be easily mounted for use as radio tuner in a rack-and-panel amplifier installation; the super- lative quality of its reception makes it ideal for this purpose, while the low-impedance power detector works perfectly into any type of power amplifier.

Skort Wave Reception Without Batteries L .
