“LISTEN-IN” WITH A SUPERB GREBE To hear a station with good volume is by no means a measure of efficiency in judging a Wireless Set. Receivers are like gramophones—everyone knows the gramophone that is all blare and noise; that “blasts” the high notes and loses the bass notes altogther. So it is with receivers. Compare others sets with the Superb Grebe and notice the difference in tone and quality of reproduction. The Grebe with its basic patents gives ALL the notes whether Jn the higher or lower register.
