Butte, Montana During tests the Hammarlund-Rob its was installed in thi Butte Radio Club Headquarters and dials set for 2LO. Immediately we were able to get through for a few moments, long enough to hear announcements made in English, German, and Spanish. This was followed by both instrumental and vocal music. M. R. C. Wheeling, W. Va. On January 25th, 1926, I picked up 7EAJ of Madrid, Spain. Reception was 30 loud and clear from the cone speaker, it was desirable to cut the volume considerably. I have received CZE of Mexico City and PWX of Havana Cuba; both of these stations I have received before these tests however. I have logged over 90 stations and more are coming in all the time. N. E.C. 7nowands Have Built It! SIMPLICITY of assembly is an outstanding feature of the Hammarlund-Roberts receiver. Thousands of amateur builders in all parts of the country testify enthusiastically to the ease of assembling this circuit and express their delight at the results secured by their own handiwork.

TRANSFORMER 4fa m m a rl ofre und ) ^ rls Each evening during the tests, I logged in no less than a dozen stations. However, regenerative sets absolutely ruined reception. I was able to make out only partly some station in South America operating at 3 0 0 meters. From results obtained I am sure that Hammarlund-Roberts is capable of Trans-Atlantic Reception. I feel that Hammarlund-Roberts is one of the best buys in radio today. G. J. A. Electrical Engineer WilUamsportj Pa. We have tested the Hammarlund-Roberts and find it to be exactly as you recommended. Surprising volume and very clear and deep tone, exceedingly selective. H. B. S. 10 Lansing, Mich. On the first night of the Trans-Atlantic Tests, I had PWX, Havana, Cuba, on the loud speaker, so loud that it could be heard at times all over a six-room house. Have not heard of anyone beating this record. I have ten witnesses to this reception. J. R. Morristown, Tennessee I assembled the Hammarlund-Roberts Receiver in one day's time. The set is highly efficient and up to all claims made by you. I have owned many factory built sets and will say that the Hammarlund-Roberts is superior to them all. This set is capable of building up tremendous volume without distortion and behaves like a thoroughbred. I get New York. Atlantic City, Jacksonville, San Francisco. Montreal. Havana, Cuba, and Mexico City. This famous instrument and other parts shown here are some of the quality units in the HammarlundRoberts.
