II you want to get the most out
OF your receiving set, take this tip
or two:
Never try TO share your aerial
with another fellow. II won't work.
He will be detuning your set and
you will be detunlng his. This APP
plies to both outdoor and indoor
antenna.
II you have TO share the aerial,
divide the time of operation. Dis
connect one set while the others IN
use.
Don't expect too much Of your In
door loop or frame aerial. As pre-
viously explained. this is only for
use in case you have a good radio
frequency ampliher or have a set
near a broadcasting station.
Don't think, because the aerial Is
inside the house. that you can shut
out reception by closing the doors
and windows. Ether, upon which
the electromagnetic waves travel.
permeats all substances, excepting
possibly iron and steel, Just as easily
as Il does air.
II you want TO shut out reception,
throw your switch and disconnect
your set from the antenns circuit.
Source of Annoyance.
We speak OF the detector tube as
when It is so regulated
to receive signals at a maximum
In this osclllating It
throws OFF a small amount OF en-
ergy which leaks through the re-
ceiving set into the aerial.

Hon. TO Get Best Results
From Your Radio Set

These signals. thrown OF by the
aerial, will be heard by those near
by who may be tuning in to the
same wave length.
This is great source Of annoyance
and requires skill in tuning to avoid
It.
Tuning In.
The problem Of tuning in TO the
best advantage Is one that each fan
will have 10 work out for himself
by simply varying his dials until he
discovers the selective spots.
You may see a set receiving very
satisfactorily at a friends home or
in a store and note the position OF
It's dials. But II you try TO make eK-
actly the same arrangement on
your own set. Il may not work at
all
II all depends on the location OF
the receiving station. the height and
length OF the earial, the length OF
the lead-in and the size OF the wire
used.
No rules can be laid down for
specific tunings.
II Is mostly up to the operator
himself.
Ticl1ler.
The plate variometer or "tickler"
Is the one part OF the set that re-
quires the most attention and skill
in handling on account OF its re-
geneptive principal.
But with a little practice one can
soon learn just where each varia-
ton Is needed. and a maximum Of
mciency in reception is enjoyed.
