Replace the potentiometers with B&O new "Noisefree"
Many and expensive Experiments in B&Os Laboratories went prior to theconstruction of B&Os new Potentiometer, which appears as a beautiful andcollected whole, entirely encapsulated in a dustfree Bakelite Housing.The resistive Element, which has been made from a Mass similar to B&Oswell-known Homogen Resistors, can, unlike wirewound Elements neitherburn nor break or - and that's just as bad - introduce Noise.
Price/eachFrom 1000 Ohm to 1 Megohm DKK 5Add for logarithmic Version DKK 1Add for Mains Switch DKK 2
The following Values are in stock, with and without Switch aswell as in ordinary and logarithmic Versions.1000 - 2000 - 5000 - 10000 - 20000 - 50000 Ohm0,1 - 0,2 - 0,5 - 1,0 Megohm.
(April 1935)
Note:The name Beolit is not yet used for the Bakelite material.It was, however, used in the microphone ads in November the same year (Ref. Commercial break #2).So the first use of the Beo-"prefix" must have seen light between april and november that year.
