Superheterodyne battery receiver

Made in 1927-1928, probably by a small Belgian (Walloon) factory or workshop. All binding posts are situated on the control panel: on the left binding posts for the frame aerial, in the middle connectors for the different voltages, 4V, 40V and 80V, on the right jacks for headphones and loudspeaker. The arrangement of the control panel is perfectly symmetrical.
