RECTIFICATION.

If a device is placed in an alter
mating current circuit. which has very
high resistance to the flow of current
in one direction. but. a comparatively
low resistance to current flow in the
opposite direction, the current Will be
changed from one which flows in two
directions alternately to one which
flows in but one direction periodically.
The action can be compared to valve
in a water pine. which opens when
the water is forced against 1t In one
direction. but closes when the water
starts to reverse its direction OF flow.
Although the DiillI n!ISht exert pres
sure in the TWO directions alternately.
the water could only flow in one di-
rection. IT is assumed. of course, that
the valve has no elasticity.
In the case of the electrical device
We have what is called "rectlhcatlon
of the alternating current into a pul-
sating direct current because. al
though the current only passes in
one direction through the device, it
does periodically increase and de-
crease in strength. Such a device is
called a "rectifier" and can be used to
'rectify' alternating current TO

ing out connections to switch con-
facts. the makers have provided little
cartridge inductances. Two such
cartridges are furnished, one with a
wave length range of $50 to 400
meters and the other with range OF
500 to 1000 meters. The cartridges
may be inserted in the spring hold
ers mounted upon the cabinet. In
order to vary the wave length and
provide for closer tuning than could
be secured with the fixed inductances,
a variable condenser is incorporated
in the receiver. This condenser has
a mica dielectric instead of the usual
air dielectric. The plates move away
from and closer to each other. de-
pending on which way the condenser
knob is rotated. There are no NOV
able plates interviewing with station :
ary plates, and consequently there is
no danger of having bent plates and
short circuiting of the condenser.
1t will be noted that there are no
switches whatever. There is some
conservation of the small electrical
energy because of this.
The casing or cabinet Is of hard
rubber composition, which does not
warp, and the dimensions are 61c Y

n person against putting In set

ing every which way and connected

know where they go. 1t Is much
easier to shoot trouble on set
when something goes wrong with IL

bllity of getting a high voltage cur
rent across the receiving tubes and
burning them out.
Some operators also find what Is

cases this can be traced to the swing
of the aerial either at the sending
station or the receiving end. The
transmitting station. though. gem
orally has the aerial fastened secure

found at the receiving station. The
aerial wires rubbing against limb
of a tree or the 1ead-in touching the
aerial support will cause the signals
to drop out entirely at times. This
will be found to be particularly bad

rectifier used for storage battery
charging will not operate because it
usually requires more current than
is to be had in the receiving circuit
1t has been found, however. that
certain minerals possess the property
of electrical recti1cation and can be
operated satisfactorily in receiving
circuits. Galena, silicon and carbo-
rundum are examples Of mineral
rectifiers. Suppose that piece of
Ealena is connected into a receiving
antenna system in such a manner that
any current which flows in the system
must pass through the galena. If
current readily passes from the top
of the antenna to ground it will be

"A common question coming from
prospective Builders Of radio sets lei
How far shall be able to hear
with this set or with that !set?"
This is a hard one to answer def
nitely, as many conditions enter Into
the matter. A receiving set which
will work we'll in ono location often
will not function properly in another.
For instance, n circuit was recon-
mended in a recent radio publioa-
ton as giving superior results to
most circuits. Five different persons
constructed the necessary apparatus
to put the circuit into operation. OF
the five. only ono found that he
could get any results worth mem
tioning. He found the set to be cN-
Ceptionally good, but the others,
though they had the apparatus as
semhled correctly, got absolutely
nothing from it. Moving the set
to a different location again brought
very poor results. Location. ground
system. aerials. tubes. all have a d.
rect bearing on the intensity OF the
signals received.
Bile. At the present time production
by manufacturers on tubes is being
rushed and often tubes not up to the
standard slip through. y person may
work for weeks trying to get signals
from a set before he finds that the
tube is not suitable for the purpose
for which it was intended. tnsoider-
ed connection in the set will often
cause a rafting noise i'll the head
phones and make It an annoyance
to receive rather than pleasure.
There is such i minute amount cf
current flowing in the circuits OF
radio receiving set that every pre-
caution should be taken to prevent
losses. During The great demand for
radio apparatus much inferior appa
ratuS has been thrown on the mar
ket. The person not familiar with
the quality of the apparatus he
should use often finds that he has

the energy put into the waves II

| the energy put into the waves Is
radiated to a distance. This Is de-
slrable loss in the antenna circuit
and, within certain limits, due to
other considerations than trapsmit-
ting range, the radiation resistance
is made purposely as high as pos
sibIe. In order to do this the other
sources of energy loss must be kept
at q minimum.
1t may be thought, off hand. that a
receiving antenna never radiates any
energy in the form of ether waves.
This is not true, however, since un-
der certain conditions 1t -Can be
made TO reradiate energy received
from passing waves. Reradiation. of
course, is not the object of q re-
ceiving antenna, and when 1t takes
place it results in an effective an
tenna resistance. which is not at all
desirable.
The fundamental wave length Of
natural frequency is that which is

denser in series between the antenna
and the ground connection. The ad-
dition of either increases the wave
length and decreases the frequency
