LOW-PRICED RADIO
SET BIG PROBLEM

Three problems stand in the way
of radio becoming a unieersal method
of receiving news. addresses, weather
reports, concerts. political news, etc.
The first is the perfection of an
extremely low-priced, wide-range re-
ceiving set that anyone can operate.
The second is the elimination OF
static disturbances that produce buzz
ing confusion in the receiver.
The third is the solution OF the
mystery of pockets" These are in
explicable spots, such as Saratoga.
n. Y, where messages. audible all
around, cannot be heard.
A fortune Is waiting for the man
who helps solve these problems.
Every radiograph expert says that
eventually they will be solved.-Pop-
ular Science.

was n. feature that attracted con-
siderable attention. This appurte-
nance is a sort Of dark bulb" which,
when used. nullifies all foreign
sounds and buzZing. clarifying the
reproduction of the broadcast. The
trouble, heretofore, has been the
annoyance encountered often in re-
ceiving messages and having their
import Earbled because of the buzz
ring noises.

given another demonstration in a
room on the sixth floor of the hotel.

AERIAL REQUIRES
GOOD INSULATION

Here are some hints for radio be-
ginners:
/. First determine where you are
going to place your aerial wire.
Get as much of it as you can i'll
a horizontal position relative to the
ground. II possible have it in the
shape of an inverted letter Il.
with the free end pointing away
from the broadcasting station.
Have the end which goes into your
house pointing toward the broad
casting station. This is important.
See the aerial is we'll insulated
No. II bare copper wire, single
strand, will do, but seven stranded
phosphor-bronze or copper weld is
better. In case it is necessary to
make any joints in the serial wire
see they are soldered. Aerial should
be thirty feet above the ground
and at least $50 feet long.
2. Next make your ground con-
nection. A good ground is impera-
tive. In city homes this is best
obtained by soldering a wire to
your water pipe system or to the
steam heat radiator. II these are
not available Tin country homes)
bury a sheet of copper plate twelve
feet square in moist earth.
8. There is no danger from light
ming in wireless sets properly
grounded, but At is best ITO get a
single pole double throw switch
and connect 1t up so that the aerial
can be grounded when the receiv-
ing set is not being used.
4. In making electric connections
between different parts of your APP
paratus use ordinary lamp cord No
Is B and s gauge See that all
your connections are tightly made
