RADIO BROADCAST ADVERTISER 420q £3 in 30 Minutes/ Receiver Broadcast Conditions to keep the price down to "rock bottom. 11 This kit coiv tains the complete receiver — there is nothing more to buy as far as the instrument itself is concerned. Blue' prints and complete instructions for assembling are included. No matter how much advertising is done, the strongest advertisement will be the performance of the instrument itself. The R. G. S. was developed with scientifically selected apparatus. It was not designed to meet a price level, although it is lower in price, with one or two exceptions than any receiver on the market. The R. G. S. was specifically designed, however, to meet (and it does meet) the chaotic conditions that exist in present day broadcast conditions. The new principles of the R. G. S. are not to be found in any other amplifier-receiver equipment. All we ask at present is that you insist on hearing an R. G. S. Receiver in actual operation. Through our jobbers and dealers we can arrange for a demonstration of an assembled R. G. S. for your particular benefit. Turn the dial of the R. G. S. Receiver with your own fingers, make your own test, draw your own conclusions. As the real authorities in the industry, such as Wing, Cotton, Bouck, Kruse, Lynch, Hurd, etc., have discovered, you will find that every claim we have made is based on real performance. Fill out the coupon below and mail to us. The R. G. S. receiver is fully covered and protected by U. S. Patents Nos. 1,517,057 and 1,517,058; by Canadian Patents Nos. 241,602 and 260,787; by British Patents Nos. 204,301 and 225,579; and Australian Patent No. 20,813. DEALERS: Write for complete merchandising information What the Authorities Say: WILLIS KINGSLEY WING Editor of Radio Broadcast "The new Grimes receiver recommends itself to me because it embodies sound design and some verv neat principles. The receiver is 'new' without being 'new and revolutionary' in the unfortunate sense of that term. It is particularly pleasing to see that the excellent and appeaUngly economic idea 0/ the Inverse Duplex System — deservedly popular for a long time — has been improved and refined, and the re suit crystallized in this model." Robert S. Kruse, Technical Editor of QST, has operated this Receiver in his home for an extended period of time and approves of its performances and selectivity. ZEH BOUCK Consulting Radio Engineer "... I particularly like the \dea of reflexing with resistance coupling. "'We have long lamented the general poor perform.' ance of manufactured receivers. It is indeed refresh' ing to find a designing engineer of commercial equip' ment, not merely endowed with intelligence himself, but permitted to give full rope to it unhampered by suicidal sales and production departments. Mr. Grimes's new set is several steps in the right direction." R. G. S. Sales Division Grimes Radio Engineering Co., Inc. 285 Madison Ave., New York City Your R. G. S. Receiver sounds good to me. Please arrange with my dealer, whose address I have given below, for a demonstration at his shop. There is no obligation attached to this demonstration. I am interested in testing for myself if your claims are just claims or if they are founded on fact. Tour J\[dme Street City Dealer's J^iame Dealer's Address .
