"Believe it or not Here is a statement that we can prove " Waltham Junior 'All That the Name Implies" Automobile Receiver "I can play San Diego any time, while driving around in Los Angeles." "I drove to San Francisco and from a few miles beyond Bakersfield, I received KPO all the way into San Francisco. "I have received a total of 87 different stations in the United States from this set, driving from Los Angeles to Des Moines, Iowa." The Waltham is a four-tube set that mounts easily under the dash. A dynamic speaker and a Pentode tube give it tone 99% as good as you get at home. A very sensitive, extraordinary and exclusive Waltham circuit gives it unusual sensitivity and at the same time it has ample selectivity. It is far superior to the four-tube AC set which four tubes ordinarily bring to mind. Plenty of "wallop" and volume. It is ruggedly constructed throughout, using steel chassis, cadmiumplated "can't-slip" lock washers and nuts, vibration-proof throughout. Individually shielded coils and tubes, full vision dial illuminated. Two screen grid, one Multi-Mu and one Pentode. Over-all dimensions are 6V4 x 6x 8V2. This Waltham Junior represents a new era in sturdy construction, scientific hook-up, tone and distance ability in an automobile set — and at a popular price. "Will perform equally as well as any Automobile Radio — and will out-distance most of them." As Illustrated — Four Tubes $3950 Complete With Tubes, Less Batteries Waltham Radio Corp., Ltd.
