RME-84

The familiar RME dial, an unsymmetrical layout, and built-in speaker distinguish the 84's front panel. The single-conversion, 455 kHz I.F., 8-tube set covers .54 - 44 MHz in four bands, but lacks a crystal filter. It has a built in power supply, though it may be operated from batteries through a socket on the rear of the chassis. A low-current drain, loctal tube line-up helps maximize A-battery life; 1946, $98.70.
