Test Out Transformer

Ouestior-The set-up which I have con-
sists OF q standard set-up Of varto-
coupler and two vario-meters. with de-
tector and two steps Of audio .amplifcation.
Heretofore I have been getting very good
results through a loud speaker and the
two steps, but recently the results from
the second step have been very poor.
There arc no loose wires and the bat
teries have been found to be In good
order Is 1t possible that the transformer
has got out Of order? With the two steps
( was only able to get local stations. Now.
with the second step out of commission,
an unusual condition Is presenting itself
when using the detector bulb only in con-
nection with ear phones. BY placing my
hand on the secondary dial and making a
careful adjustment I have heard clearly
Crosley at Cincinnati, Sweeney at Kansas
City, Palmer at Davenport. Iowa; the
Register and Tribune at Des Moines. Iowa,
and other stations nearer by. Now when !
remove my hand from the secondary dial
I cannot hear any OF these distant points.
III. w. D.
Answer-The fact that you receive 80
we'll when your hand is upon the sec
ondary dial is because Of the. additional
capacity added to the circuit by your
body. If you have not got. your set
ground-shielded I would advise you to
do so, and since you are using the
two-variometer vario-coupler type of
circuit you can put shields in between
these instruments.
1t may be that you have trouble in

be shown al the Temple theater on

arouse a lot Of discussion-and ne
did. He had become sick and tired
of hearing about the good old

write a book showing, jim humorous
fashion that the knights of old
were by no means all they were
cracked up TO be. So he transplant
ed Connecticut Yankee TO the

that the modern American is more
than a match for the ancient knight.
