the truth of the fact that they cannot
afford to carry large and heterOgene-
Gus lot of odds and ends in radio ap-
paratus in the hopes that they will be
able to dispose of it. They are learn
ing now, by stern process, that hys-
terical overstocking Of apparatus in an
effort to meet the spasmodic demand
of radio 'faddists' is not going to prove
profitable in the long run. They are
beginning to realize that dependable
apparatus, bought to meet the varying
radio conditions, is more to be relied
upon than unknown apparatus that
looks good in the catalogue, and Is
merely an ornament upon the shelves.
Manufacturers, too, are learning
their lesson from this slump. They
are realizing that the time Of order
taking is past and that the time of
order getting is here. They are learn
ing now, if they didn't know it before,
that in order to sell radio apparatus
they must give good value, serviceable
merchandise, attractive prices and rea
service and dealer cooperation"

In Figure XXXVI the tube was made
self exciting by coupling an inductance
& connected in the grid circuit to L,
an inductance in the tune plate circuit.
A development of this circuit is shown
in Figure MINK.
Here the energy, instead of being
directly coupled from the plate to the
grid circuit, is first necessary to an
intermediate circuit, MN, and then to
the grid circuit. 1t is necessary of
course, that the circuit KY and MN
have the same natural period, that is
to say, they must be tuned to the same
frequency. If the frequency is rela-
lively high, the condenser G can be
dispensed with, and the capacity of the
plate to tilament used as a portion Of
the oscillation plate circuit.
The circuit as shown in Fig. XXXIX
is inherently the circuit used in low
power undamped or continuous wave
radio telegraph transmitters. By sub
stituting in the OScillating circuit MN

COUPLING CONTROLS
THE OSCILLATIONS
How the Vacuum Tube Radio
Receiver Can Be Made
Regenerative.

If it were not for the bends in the
characteristic curve, the three-elec-
trOde vacuum tube could not be made
to produce oscillations of constant am
plitude when self excited. 1t is easily
seen that if the characteristic curve
were a straight line, the operation of
the tube would be 50 unstable as to
render the tube useless as an OScilla-
ton generator. A third condition of
relative values of potential variations
can exist, that is, when the grid cir
cult potential variations are less than
the potential variations existing in the
tuned circuit between the points Y and
Y. When this condition exists, the
oscillations in the tuned circuit cannot
be maintained but the decrease in am
plitude in the tuned circuit oscillations
will reduce the grid eXcitation, and the
tube will finally cease to oscillate.
Thus the coupling that exists be-
tween the plate circuit through the
tuned circuit induCtance l. and the
grid circuit through the inductance |,
control the conditions that will or will
not cause the tube to act as Il gener-
atOr of undamped oscillations.
Suppose that the coupling existing
between the two coils L and is such
that the tube is generating oscillations.
If the coupling be reduced, that is if
the coils be moved farther apart it will
require greater and greater variations
in potential in the coil L to maintain
the same variations in the coil l. This
weakening of the plate to grid coupling
causes stronger oscillations in the
