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:
“Friends broaden our horizons. They serve as new models with whom we can identify. They allow us to be ourselvesand accept us that way. They enhance our self-esteem because they think were okay, because we matter to them. And because they matter to usfor various reasons, at various levels of intensitythey enrich the quality of our emotional life.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
“Today it is not the classroom nor the classics which are the repositories of models of eloquence, but the ad agencies.”
—Marshall McLuhan (19111980)
“French rhetorical models are too narrow for the English tradition. Most pernicious of French imports is the notion that there is no person behind a text. Is there anything more affected, aggressive, and relentlessly concrete than a Parisan intellectual behind his/her turgid text? The Parisian is a provincial when he pretends to speak for the universe.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
