Rheostat of UnueuaI Design
HAS Novel Contact Arm

Sunraid Rheostat--A latent weakness
In most rheostats is, in the contact be-
tween the movable arm. and coils OF
resistance wire. An attempt has been
made to overcome this difficulty in the
design of the Sunraid Rheostat by
using a contact maintained by the con-
slant pressure of spiral spring upon
small brass plunger. The coils, wound
IN the ordinary way upon a strip OF
heat resisting compound, are set into
nodded condensite cup so chat thev
form ring approximately two inches
In diameter. A piece of fiat nickeled
brass is fashioned into clamp at one
end to Mt the control knob shaft, and
tube at the other TO contain the
compression spring and plunger con-
tact. When this is set III the proper
position on the control knob shaft the
piunger bears firmly against the re-
sistance wire, and the only effect of
loose screw in any Of the parts is
to allow the knob to turn without
moving the contact arm. There is lit
tie likelihood of this happening, how
ever, 1or the strain upon the clamp
supporting the contact arm is negligi-
Die. Contact between the movable ele-
tanned by a brass link through which
the shaft is threaded.
Either base or panel mounting can
be used in adapting this rheostat to
the set. The condensite cup is pro-
vided with screw holes SO that it can
be fastened in place. A one and three
eeighths inch milled knob with a neat
indicating pointed beneath it is used
for making the adjustments, and the
knob shaft is sufficiently long to al
low TOR any of the standard thicknesses
OF panel material. Manufactured by
sunraid Radio Company, New YORK

Answer--The blue glow that you see
between the filament and the plate in
dicates that too much plate voltage is
being used en- the tube, that the tube
itself has become gassy and conse-
quently very critical. AS matter OF
fact Its usefulness in the super-regen-
orator has practically ceased because
Of this condition, and it is this tube
that is undoubtedly causing all of your
trouble, particularly with body capac-
ity effect. Normally this effect is not
noticeable in the super-regenerator

shield it.

Sturdy VariocoupIer With
Soldered Switch Connections

New York Coil Company's Mounted
Variocoupler--If there is any one lob
that is more tedious and exasperating
than another in the development of
some 'of the old reliable sets it is the
construction of the variocoupler and
mounting Of the point switches. Those
who have toe much regard for their
panels to attempt the drilling of q
dozen or more holes in precise order,
and do not relish the idea of soldering
all the necessary connections, will be
very much interested in the mounted
unit placed on the market by the New
York Coil Company.
1t is necessary to drill only three
holes in the panel to adapt this
point switches and the third for the
rotor shaft The point switches will
then be behind the panel, with only
the control knobs nickeled pointers in
sight.
Upon neatly finished, black enam-
eled, hardwood base about FIVE inches
square is mounted the entire unit. The
stationary coil, wound upon a fiber tube
four inches in diameter, consists of
fifty-seven turns of shellacked cotton
covered wire. On the fine adjustment
side there are seven steps of one turn
! each and on the coarse side there are
eight turns to the step. Quarter cir
/ cles of fiber board are fastened rigidly
to the front edge of the base on either
| side. Each of these carries well de-
signed and complete contact switch
with seven points and stops at either
end Of the range. Leaos from the points
are short and direct as possible, with
linen tubing to prevent shorting in
any of the strands. All the connec-
tions arc well soldered.
Brass plates on either side of the in
! dividual switch panels form bushings
for the switch shaft and at the same
time afford a reliable contact between
the moving part and the lead TO the
large brass binding post at the rear Of
the base. A heavy brass collar with a
set screw allows the extension of the
knob shaft on either of the switches
SO that there may be clearance of an
! inch between the panel and front edge
of the unit.
The rotor has twenty-five turns of
the same sort Of wire used on the
stator wound upon black enameled.
hardwood block of the usual shape.
A top fastened to one edge of the block
prevents the knob being turned through
more than $50 degrees. This covers
{ the range of adjustment completely.
Rope stranded conductors soldered to
{ the rotor shaft and binding posts
mounted upon the stator tube form
positive connections between the two.
In order to hold the rotor in the cor
rect position and to prevent fitting
after an adjustment is made, steel
spiral springs are compressed upon
the shaft between the inner walls of
the stator tube and washers bearing
against the rotor block. Manufactured
