| Column 1: ...has been designed to combine the properties of a good aerial with a finish and general appearance that not only harmonise with modern body contours, but actually give a "finishing touch" to the lines of even the smartest cars. This aerial is easily installed, only one drilling being necessary as the insulator brackets are fitted with very efficient suction caps. [Diagram Labels]: AUXILARY ROD, AERIAL ROD, ROOF, INSULATOR, SUCTION PAD. Constructed with heavily chromium-plated brass rod of stout section which will not tarnish or lose shape. Supplied complete with lead-in of correct capacity. Part No. DRH. 1584 Price 15/9 Column 2: All Philco Aerials include lead-in of the correct type. This is very important for best results. Other aerials do not always include this. PHILCO RUNNING BOARD AERIAL WHERE an aerial of the external roof or telescopic type cannot be fitted, the Philco Running Board Aerial is recommended. It is very efficient—special design ensuring that a good strong signal is picked up—and is easily installed. All parts are weather proofed and the aerial is mounted... Column 3: ...on flexible supports which render it virtually damage-proof. Supplied complete with special low-loss lead-in of correct capacity. Part No. DRH. 1566 Price 10/6 PHILCO UNDER-CHASSIS AERIAL WHERE other aerials cannot be used or where cost is of prime importance, this aerial is just the thing. The efficiency of its design has been proved by time, many thousands of these aerials being in use. Simple to instal and supplied complete with all fittings. Part No. DRH. 1021 Price 7/6 There are more Philco Car Radio Receivers in use than all other makes combined | ||
