Frost-Radio Brass Tack Talks on Rheostats Your experience with rheostats is likely to have convinced you they are made either to wear or to repair. Frost Rheostats are made to WEAR. And how they do live up to their reputation ! There doesn't seem to be any "wear out" to them. Rheostats we made years ago are still giving the same trouble-free service they rendered the first day they were installed. Windings, contact arms, spring tension, knobs, frames — all are designed primarily for SERVICE. Having made many millions of rheostats of all sizes and types, we have gained a wide experience that is reflected in today's Frost Rheostats — the finest your money can buy. It may interest you to know that we could save much by making Frost Rheostats not quite so good — but we don't and we won't. The best of everything, tested countless times during manufacture, ia combined with our knowledge of rheostat design and construction to give you as close to absolute perfection in a rheostat as modern science can produce. For your protection, and to insure the best Possible reception for your set, insist that only rost Rheostats be used. Then you will know that their service will equal that of the set itself.
