The radio was designed by British engineer George William White,
who worked for NSF.
The receiver was equipped with the low-voltage valves A110, A110,
and
A106, so the batteries could be placed inside the set. Later the valves
were replace by the 4 volt valves A415
(2) and a B405. The polarity of the filament current has to be
reversed in this case. Please note that in the circuit in later
Philips manuals, shown below, the polarity also has to be
reversed.
