MEANING OF "FREQUENcleS"
Distinction Between @Audio" and IRA
do" Must Be Learned Early by
the Beginner.

A newcomer into radio experiment
ing ranks is often perplexed by the
two terms called audlo frequency and
radio frequency.
The necessity OF making a distinc-
ton in the frequencies In radio Is I'M
pOrtant. II Is generally known that
vibrations OF over 10000 a second are
lnaudible 10 the human ear. The radio
transmitters, depending upon their de-
sign. emit vibrations always running
into tens or even hundreds Of thou
sands. and are known as radio fire.
QuencieS. In the reception OF these
waves II Is necessary TO reduce them
to within the range Of audibility Of our
ears.
Therefore. an arbitrary division has
been made by radio engineers and de-
signers to differentiate between the
two freQuencies. All frequencies above
10000 are alluded TO as radio fire.
quencies and all below 10000 as audio
freQuencies.
IL must be remembered whenever
the question Of frequency Is met With
in the study Of radio that radio fire.
quency Is that used In transmission,
and that IL must ultimately, by various
methods. be reduced 10 audiO fire.
quency In order that the telephone re-
eeiyers commonly used for the recep-
ton Of signals may function.
This is analogous 10 the transmits
sion of power over great distances by
wire. 1t is generally carried at a high
voltage over the greater distance. and.
by means of step-dOwn transformers
converted to a voltage OF no volts, or
dinarily used in our household scheme.
By means OF detectors, either crystal
or tube. which are really rectihers, we
convert radio frequencics TO audiO fire.

Some of the youngsters are

even when the wire Is hung with
drying clothes good results are
obtained through radio clothes

The electric light socket aerial

gineer has Just turned out some
OF these devices, which are be-

James Fl. Rogers, an inventor
of Maryland. claims that he has
received radio messages from
distant stations through the
ground by simply burying a
wire. He says that not only do
radio waves travel through the
earth. but they meet with less
resistance than when going
through the air.
Hundreds OF Jewelers. in Paris
