THE 1940 COMMANDER
General Electric Radios for 1940 embody enhanced ear and oye values afforded by larger and more beautiful cabinets, definitely greater audio output, widely expanded tone range,
extra sensitivity and selectivity, stability of performance, and the new Alnico-magnet “DYNAPOWER” speaker----- all important values to you in eclecting your radio.
TROPIC-PROOF CONSTRUCTION Rellability for continuous, full- power, and long-life perform- ance under the most severe climatic conditions, is another great General Electric engineer- ing triumph. The 1940 Tropic- Proof models are the result of several years' testing in General
Electric's "Humidity Cham. ber," which subjects parts and complete receivers to humidity and temperature conditions more severe than the worst of the TROPICS. Result-full measure of reliability to your benefit and satisfaction.
