On the Sahara, using three tubes on the Trirdyn circuit, reception from Paris came through on the loud-speaker. Along the south coast of the Mediterranean, using this set, six or eight high power European stations came in with good volume by day -light and all of them after dark. Can usually get a few American after 1 a. m. Can you fish with us this year? Cordially, (Signed) D. F.

Every radio fan — actual and aspiring— is invited to think this over and then act. On the Trirdyn is the beautiful new Crosley Musicone, radio 's most startling development.
