Burndept: the well established Burnham & Co had a wireless department, which became a separate entity when Witt Burnham established Burndept Ltd. as a private company.

Ethophone was the popular name for a number of models.

In 1925 they became a public company: Burndept Wireless Ltd. which later ran into financial problems: in June 1927 it was forced into receivership (Konkursverwaltung). But the company was not liquidated. The receiver (Konkursverwalter) took control and managed to recover.
