Apex 11
#3

Doug, the metal "Screen Grid" tag lists Chicago as the address for USR&T, as does the ad introducing this model in Alan Douglas' Vol.1. However, in his
opening Apex remarks he states that all radios were produced at the Marion plant, so perhaps Chicago is a headquarters address.

The same ad references an eight tube model 115 "high-gain neutrodyne" circuit for the same price with five 27s, two 45s and one 80. I have no idea which
is considered the better outfit.

I am surprised to find the word television in a 1930 company name. I assumed most people were not familiar with the term.
