FAVORABLE OUTLOOK FOR CANADIAN RADIO INDUSTRY REPORTED
Prospects for Canada's radio manufacturing industry for the current year appear to be better than 1934 when 189,000 receiving sets were produced, according to a report from Consul Damon C. Woods, Toronto, made public by the Commerce Department.
Changes and improvements, it is pointed out, will follow closely those in the United States, as the Canadian companies, with one exception, are branches or affiliates of the large American manufacturers.
All-wave sets, which led the uptrend last year, will again be featured and two-band reception will be on all but the "midget" sets. Metal tubes will appear early this Fall.
Sales of receiving sets in the Dominion during the first quarter, the report states, amounted to approximately 25,000 units, with a retail value of $2,300,000. About 85 per cent of the sets now sold are all-wave. The actual demand for battery sets from householders without electric wiring is running well ahead of last year, particularly in the rural sections.
Sales of radio sets for automobiles in Canada are comparatively small, as compared with the United States. This situation is due partly to their greater cost and also to the fact that the open weather season is shorter than in the United States. Automobile sets sold in Canada during 1934 numbered 13,235 units, as compared with 700,000 sold in the United States.
