Price complete,,.............$280.00 TO express the almost sensational advantages of these new Rogers-Batteryless Sets in terms as conservative as seems proper yet as emphatic and enthusiastic as is justified by the actual facts, is a difficult problem. Nothing to equal these marvellous values and remark­ ably low prices was thought possible. Here are a few of the features that you will find in the new Rogers- Batteryless Radio Models this season, at prices $60 to $110 less than last year: 1. New Illuminated Drum Dial —for increased visibility, greater ease and speed in tuning-in stations. Wavelengths clearly shown. 2. Non-Slip Tuning Control —gear drive with no possibility of slip or back lash, positive tuning action, finer tuning control. 3. Automatic Voltage Control —which maintains uniform voltage on the tubes, no matter what fluctuations may occur in the electric current. An exclusive Rogers-Batteryless feature. 4. Rogers Output Filter in All Models •—provides greater clarity and fidelity of tonal reproduction. Improves the tone quality of any loud speaker. 5. Phonograph “Plug-In” Jack —in conjunction with the electrical pick-up unit this makes any old phonograph equal to the best and highest-priced phono­ graph of today. 6. Increased Selectivity without Tonal Loss —by means of improved Shielding and the new Rogers A/C Power Tube.
