AMAZING 1 DISCOVERY of utmost importance to all intending burchasers and ozners of radios: Early this year, engineers of the Stewart-Warner Radio Division 0f Hope Gibbons; Ltd,, begani to concentrate on a serious problem which first arose with the introduction to New Zealand of the Screen Grid, High-Gain Electric Radio Receiver; and which was recently accentuated with the electric Super-heterodyne Radios. 'This problem was one of snoise; by which is meant electric power line noises, created by faulty overhead mains; particular types of domestic apparatus employing brush motors, and by many other electric devices. The new, vastly superior Super-heterodyne Radios first met with a severe set-back under New Zealand conditions utilising the 230-volt AC supply, owing to the high noise level experienced: In some ways the old battery model radios were superior in this respect owing to the silent sBack-ground: A vast amount of experimental research was expended by the New Zealand distzibutors for the Stewart-Warner line; and a most amazing discovery was made. A device was perfected and has now been registered under patent protee- tion, in which power line "noise" 02' high-frequency disturhances being distributed by power lires, are success- fully eliminated in electric Super-heterodyne Radios. No longer is it necessary to put up with the inconveniences of an old model radio in order to keep out the Snoise. Al latest model Stewart-Warner Radios are fitted with this device, and you are invited to make 2 comparative demonstration in your own home;, between this amazing mew radio and any other type of radio in New Zealand: Convincing demonstrations such as this, conducted at twelve selected test points throughout New Zealand, particularly in "noisy" localities, have already proved with- out the shadow of a doubt that this is one of the most remarkable radio improvements made in recent years. The fact that this improvement has been discovered and is being developed first in New Zealand arrests attention: Many sceptics have now realised that here at last is a solution to the snoise" problem with the modern electiic radio. Favoured dealers handling the Stewart-Warner line in New Zealand are highly enthusiastic over this exclusive feature in their line, and report very considerable business as 2 result of demonstrating this feature. Quite apart from this great modern revelation in radios, he handsome new Stewart-Warner Radios represent highly "ompetitive values, from that wonderfal little Short-Wave Converter up to the sWorld Wide" models: 'The New Zealand publie will he gratified to know that 0f the purchasing price of the latest Stewart-Warner Radiog, less than 25% of the value represents foreign manufacture_ In other words, over 75% of the purchase price remains in the British Eannire. AlI models are now actually built up in New Zealand.
