On many battery portables, the volume by design couldn't be turned all the way down, so as to prevent the radio from being left on unintentionally.

Aha! I noticed that on some sets. Very clever. This thread is really revealing a lot about these portables!

A few other firms built a variation of same. They sounded a lot better than the others that ran the battery output tube when using it on AC or DC. |

This western air patrol has been in my collection for about 25 years. I really like the simplicity of the design, and the proportions of the cabinet. I ran it off 9 volt batteries in series for the B cell, and a couple of Ds for the A cell. It worked nice, I should try it again some time.
