Each is excep- Honally fitted to give unusually fine performance in its particular field, and it is felt that anyone interested in high-frequency work «ill find a receiver suited to his pur- pose in this comprehensive line. “Althaugh primarily a description of NATIONAL equipment, it is hoped that the sound, though ingenious, design and the minute attention to detail in the receivers described will contribute to make this booklet of value to amateurs and professionals alike.” James Millen len, Mass June 1, 1981 1931-32 Smont-Wave Recervirs An Analysis of A, C, Operated Short-Wave Receiver Design The famous NATIONAL SWS Thrill Box, pioneer single dial control a.c. oper- ated shart ccave receiver, is now still further improved by the use of the new -35 variable mu tubes in the rf. and detector sackets.
