One control. Beginning at one end of the broadcasting wave band, I tuned in 27 stations, loud and clear, just like the Cincinnati stations, three of which were going full blast. I listened to each program; identified it; didn't hear any others in the background, and passed on to the next, — all with one finger. It was between 7:00 and 7:30 P. M. Central Standard time. <5 The air was certainly full. Some of the stations were less than a dial marking apart. It is amazing how the jiggers they call "acuminators" helped on such fine separation. Even using a hundred foot aerial the local stations were easy to go through. One of them only a few blocks from my home. >ome radio, I call it! $50.00 seems too little. I'd like to see some two hundred dollar sets do as well!" Write Dett. 20, for Catalog The Crosley Radio Corporation Powel Crosley, Jr., Pres.
