Radio age (Jan 1927-Jan 1928)

RADIO AGE for October, 1927 Mr. L H. Scott, himself , will tell you how he designed the original DXreceiver, with which he made the four World's Records described on the opposite page — how that set has bean duplicated hundreds of times, each one performing as well as the original — how later developments and refinements have enabled him to improve on the original in theNewWor d's Record Super 10 — and how you can, even without any previous experience, build a World's Record Super 10 for yourself. DISTANCE —Here is the receiver for the man who wants the most powerful and sensitive set it is possible to build. Many claim to have received far distant stations once or twice, but Mr. Scott with his World's Record Super proved his claims to record honors by bringing in consistently, night after night, stations distant six thousand miles or more. The new World's Record Super 10, in actual comparative tests with the original receiver on which the records were made, has proved that it is even more powerful and brings in the far distant stations with almost unbelievable volume. No other receiver has approached the marvelous DX records that the World's Record Super has established, and it is safe to say none will for years to come. REMARKABLE SELECTIVITY— Here isa receiver for today's conditions. In Chicago, where there are about forty broadcasting stations, the New World's Record Super 10 cuts through with the greatest of ease. It brings in distant stations only a few meters apart with such volume that you think you have a local station until you hear the call letters and find you are listening to a station hundreds of miles away. NATURAL TONE QUALITY— A receiver may have great DX ability and wonderful selectivity, but what good is it if the tone is raspy or distorted? When you hear the New World's Record Super 10, you will realize that here at last is a receiver that it is a pleasure to listen to. EASY TO BUILD— With the parts here listed, any one can build an exact duplicate of the New World's Record Super 10. The only tools required are a screw driver, pliers, and soldering iron. The building instructions and full size blue prints show exactly where to place each part and how to run every connection, and are so simple and easy to follow that any one, even without previous experience in building a radio receiver, can duplicate this marvelous receiver and own the finest radio set available today. — LIST OF PARTS — Formica panel drilled and engraved 26x7x3/is $ 6.70 Formica sub panel drilled 25xl0x3/i6 -. 7.00 Rem ler 3-in-line condenser No. 633 00035 ..... 15.00 RemlercondenserNo.638 00035 5.00 RemlerdrumdialsNo.110 9.00 RemlerR.F. choke coils No 35 Thordarson audio transformers R200 Thordarson output transformer No. 76 6 Selectone L.
