A sudden demand for the WD-11
tube has depleted the supplies of
virtually all Washington dealers in
radio apparatus and forced them to
send in, rush orders to the, manufac-
turing company. Several dealers said
today they expect to receive ship
ment of the tubes tomorrow.
c. o. Fisher. manager of the radio
department of Woodward & Lothrop

he believed the demand for the
vacuum tube is being made principally
by owners of the surplus Signal
Corps crystal sets who are converting
them for long range reception.
The WD-11 tube is used in radio
