And yes, unfortunately a lot of smaller electronics manufacturers got absorbed by bigger companies during the period between the depression and the 1950s, E. H. Scott being one of them, but they were actually aquired by a smaller firm mainly Meck Industries of Plymouth, Indiana, which then went belly up in the late 1950s early 1960s and so the Meck and Scott and the Philharmonic names were lost to history after that.

I believe Pierce Airo radio just used that slightly revised name to convey quality for their company. I don't think it had anything to do with the Pierce Arrow car. There is also radios under the Studebaker name.
