The radio dealer (Apr-Sept 1922)

July, 1922 THE RADIO DEALER 63 localities adjacent to broadcasting stations as such sets are inexpensive, selfcontained, and with proper care should last indefinitely. In most cases the reception is equal in quality to that of sets costing much more. There will, undoubtedly, be a large increase in the demand for the less expensive vacuum tube sets, non-regenerative as well as regenerative circuit. These outfits are becoming more popular as they are within the reach' of the average citizen's pocketbook and are easily added to later when the owner feels better able to afford it. Dealers in various localities are already beginning to place orders for tested instruments of medium price in anticipation of the fall business. This appears to be a wise policy as the demand will unquestionably outgrow the supply, particularly around the latter part of the year when it is estimated that three months production will be necessary to satisfy the demands of Christmas shoppers. ACE BINDING POST The H. H. Eby Manufacturing Co., 605 Arch street, Philadelphia, have designed a new binding post similar to their ensign and junior posts, which are already familiar to the trade, and embodying many of the novel features which have made their line so popular for use on radio apparatus. This post, which they have named " Ace," has a nickel-plated brass base with solid 8-32 threaded stem extending approximately one-half inch below the base. The base of the post is heavily knurled to prevent turning when mounted, and a hole is drilled through the neck sufficiently large to take a No. 15 bare wire. The post is supplied with a black insulated knob one-half inch in diameter by approximately seven-sixteenths of an inch high, and makes a very attractive post for use on certain apparatus. A RELIABLE HOUSE The H. C. Roberts Electrical Supply Co., with headquarters in Philadelphia, are doing extensive wholesaling of radio lines throughout the east, under the supervision of Mr. Fisher, an experienced radio man. The House of Roberts has been well known for years as a reliably electrical jobbing house, with branch offices in Syracuse and Washington, D. C.
