Six lamp battery radio made around 1923 (originally 6
× TM)
Made by P. Cadène, constructeur, 58
bis, Bd. Sergt. Triaire,
Nîmes, France. Probably a small
maker, who sold his radios in
Nîmes and the surrounding
areas. The coils on the
front are made by Gamma; the coil on top is by Vulco.
Condensers and resistors are marked "Wireless". The
radio has three l.f. transformers, three rheostats, a
switch to select a tapping point of the aperiodic coil,
and switches to select the number of output valves.
Primary and secondary tuning capacitors have fine
tuning. In the front two connecting points for a
loudspeaker or a headset. The radio's front and top
panel are made of ebonite. Sides, bottom and back are
made of wood. The radio was extensively restored.
