RADIO BROADCAST ADVERTISER 28.5 Stabilized in Policy As Well As in Fact FERGUSON Radio Receivers do not base their appeal solely upon the value of a remarkable new theory that increases volume and clarity with fewer tubes and on which there are patents pending — nor yet upon the many startling improvements in construction and operation. In actual practice it demonstrates its superiority without a question — even to the merest novice. What will interest dealers and radio buyers most is the fact that back of FERGUSON receivers is an intrinsic policy — a policy that is building ten years ahead and not for the day only. Our production is purposely limited to hundreds instead of thousands of radio receivers per week because our high standards do not now and never will permit of over-expanded production. We feel that there are enough dealers and buyers who want and demand only the best at reasonable cost to supply as large a market as we care to manufacture for. For this reason our dealer distribution will also be limited to one dealer in each restricted section. For this class of dealer we have an unusual proposition to offer. We make no wild claims. It is a fact that FERGUSON receivers inaugurate a new era in radio receptivity. They require very little or no service on the part of dealer or buyer. They will operate on any kind of antenna— from 15 ft. indoor to 200 ft. outdoor. Only two tuning controls. A new theory of oscillation without regeneration or radiation that increases sensitivity almost beyond belief. Practically the, only receiver that compares with the crystal for clarity. As for volume, selectivity, and distance — you shall be the judge! Mechanical perfection in every detail, and cabinet work to match the finest furniture. -Console Model Ferguson Six Complete with special built in loud speaker, with AmpIion = unit, compartments for "A" and "B" batteries and battery charger. Cabinet work the finest, genuine walnut, finished in. latest high light styles. Plenty of room for books and radio literature. Top panel drops down when receiver is in operation, providing a handy desk arrangement. Price, $2 90 Batteries, tubes, and charger extra Illustrated catalog on request Ferguson Six — Cabinet Model Employs two stages of balanced tuned radio frequency oscillating detector (equal to regeneration for added volume, but without radiation or effect on tuning) ; three stages of perfectly natched audio frequency. De Luxe high light walnut or mahogany cabinet with separate compartments for "B" batteries. Price. §180 Tubes and batteries extra It Will Pay You To Investigate Jobbers and dealers have doubtless heard many claims for receivers before. We do not expect anyone to credit what we say about the FERGUSON Receiver until it is demonstrated to them. We welcome requests to show what it can do from responsible parties who want a truly high class receiver for discriminating trade — a receiver that will sell and stay sold without excuses. J. B.
