You're off for strange lands of romance and allure!" Supreme for Stay-at-Home Listeners First a shake-down cruise in home waters. Listen in on American broadcast stations near and far — coastto-coast is an easy jaunt. Discover the marvelous capability of this dream ship to carry you anywhere at your will . . . with a delightful fidelity of tone that puts you tight into the sending studio, giving you every word of speech and every note of music with a glorious perfection that transcends all previous heights of mechanical sound reproduction. Your own ears will tell you so . . . and the evidence is backed up by scientific laboratory findings that prove SCOTT radio reproduction to be the closest to perfection yet attained. As a first venture in short wave reception listen-in on the crime wave as reported by police calls from one end of the Land to the othet . . . eavesdrop on gossipy amateur wireless telephony "hams'*, and hear the airplanes and their gtound stations talk back and forth. Hear Canada and Mexico Now venture farther! Roam the air-waves to Canada and Mexico. Hear something different . . . something typical of these near-by foreign lands broadcast on wave bands from 15 to 550 meters. Don't fret about the rumors you may have heard that these countries are soon to change wave-lengths . . . your SCOTT can be equipped to receive on all bands between 15 and 4,000 meters at a small extra charge. Listen-in On All of Europe And now you've "got the feel of your ship." Head out into the open . . . start on a fascinating exploration cruise for radio joys that are new and different. Here's England, first! GSB, at Daventry, is sending out the news of the day for the benefit of Colonial listeners-in . . . there's peppy music from a famous London hotel . . . and at signing off time (midnight in London, but only 6 P.M. Central Standard Time) the chimes of Big Ben, atop the Houses of Parliament, clang sonorously as though you were actually there to hear them in person. Slip your moorings once again. Cross the Channel and lend an ear to Radio Colonial, Pontoise, France. It's bringing you Parisian music and typically French entertainment. Varied Programs from Far Countries Distance still lures you? Then set your course for Germany ... in a jiffy you're listening to Zeesen, with programs of glorious symphony orchestras, and perhaps a speech by "Handsome Adolph" that will give you a different viewpoint on Hitlerism. Make port at Madrid, in sunny Spain, and hear EAO. broadcasting typical National music. Announcements from this station are considerately made in English as well as Spanish. Then swing south to Rome and hear the voice of 12RO's woman announcer tell you it's "Radio Roma, Napoli," that's on the air. Most likely the following musical program will be opera direct from LaScala, in Milan, or some other musical treat worth going actual miles to hear — and you'll be listening to it, with purity of tone and richness of reproduction that's truly amazing, without stirring from your easy chair at home. And now for an adventure-trek that holds a supreme "kick" for the radio sensation-seeker! Sail away "down under." Listen in to VK2ME or VK3ME, in Sydney and Melbourne, Australia. Hear the callof thatfamous Kookaburra bird, listen with delight to an interesting and varied program of music and talks on the commercial and scenic attractions of the Antipodes.
