Models
Main HRO models:
- HRO (also called HRO-Sr, 1935–1943)
- HRO-Jr (February 1936-1943, US$100 version of Sr with only one coil not individually aligned to the receiver and lacking crystal filter, phasing control, and signal strength meter)
- RAS (1939-?, HRO-Jr for US Navy with general coverage coils and 175 kHz IF so the radio could receive the 500 kHz distress frequency)
- HRO-M (used in conjunction with Bletchley Park)
- HRO-5 (1944–1945, octal tube version).
There were also several sub-variations on these models.

Famous quotes containing the word models:
“... your problem is your role models were models.”
—Jane Wagner (b. 1935)
“Grandparents can be role models about areas that may not be significant to young children directly but that can teach them about patience and courage when we are ill, or handicapped by problems of aging. Our attitudes toward retirement, marriage, recreation, even our feelings about death and dying may make much more of an impression than we realize.”
—Eda Le Shan (20th century)
“Friends broaden our horizons. They serve as new models with whom we can identify. They allow us to be ourselves—and accept us that way. They enhance our self-esteem because they think we’re okay, because we matter to them. And because they matter to us—for various reasons, at various levels of intensity—they enrich the quality of our emotional life.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
