USING ELECTRIC LIGHT WIRE
Experts Tell the Safe Way to Employ
This System for Radio
Receiving.

Since the announcement that the
bureau Of standards Of the depart
ment OF commerce had perfected
method OF employing electric light
wires In place Of aerials, considerable
experimenting has been done by vari-
Gus amateurs. some Of whom have had
good luck while others succeeded
only In blowing a large number or
fuses.
Engineers OF an eastern electric light
company have offered the following
suggestions 10 amateurs:
'FIrst-Successfu results have been
obtained so far only with audion bulb
sets. Crystal sets receive the signals,
but for some reason they are very
weak and indlstinct.
"Second-No set should be used on
this system without air or oil filled
condensers, placed in series with either
the antenna circuit or the ground
clrcult-preferably In the antenna
circuit.
"Third-A fuse not heavier than
one-half ampere should be used In
series and just ahead OF the antenna
connection.
"Fourth-An ordinary separate de-
tachment plug-L E., one with two
blades connecting the two separate
halves OF the plug-is used. Only one
wire IS run from this plug, the other
binding screw left undisturbed. This
single conductor wire should be long
enough TO reach from a handy electric
light socket 10 the table where the
instrument Is located and should
terminate In the fuse mentioned above
In case an externally connected con
denser Is used. the circuit should be
run from the fuse TO the condenser
and from the condenser TO the anten-
ma binding post OF the receiving set.
'In sets where the condenser Is
built into the instrument the connec-
ton from the fuse Is run directly 10
the antenna binding post. All other
connections should be exactly the
same as for conventional overhead
aerial receiving.
"Screw the attachment plug into
the electric light socket and tune as
usual. In case no signals are received
reverse the blades In the attachment
plug by simply pulling the attachment

SHORT FLASHES

The first national radio COM
pass station on the Great Lakes
was recently installed. Other
stations will shortly be In serv-
ice when the graveyard" of the
lakes win have lost Its terrOrs.
1t is claimed that John Hayes
Hammond, Jr., and DIR. Il. l..
Chaffee have invented an appll-
ance that insures secrecy in
wireless. The system is based
on principle OF producing char
acteriStic waves TO which only
especially equipped receivers
are responsive.
Secretary Hoover's force OF
"ether cops" may take the form
OF special government detect
ing stations where aerial COM
passes could be arranged so as
to detect the direction from
which interruptions come. BY a
series of relays. the government
station nearest the violating
amateur could be notified and
the source of trouble stopped.
Now the fans In England are
having a hard time with their
air. According 10 a report from
England there are only 5000
authorized amateur operators in
the United Kingdom. The Lon
don Daily Mail states that the
reason for the arts tardy
growth Is the fact that "ham-
pering and senseless restric-
tons In this country prevent
wireless amateurs from getting
practice. The old fOgies of the
army and navy air forces are
afraid Of the amateurs and use
their influence In having the
postoffice authorities impose I'm
possible and vexatious restric-
tions that limit the field"

The grid condenser will allow alter
mating current to flow to the grid but
will not allow any charge that might
collect on the grid to flow through IL
To the filament. The only way a
charge that might collect on the grid
could flow to the filament would be
through the high resistance OF about
10000 to 100000 ohms and would al
low the charge on the grid to leak
