D'es"0m Of lees. Coupler

The primary coil or winding
which is in the antenna circuit is
wound on a cardboard tube about
inches in diameter and 4 inches long
using 70 turns of No. % copper wire
double cotton insulated. The tube
is supported horizontally between
two wooden end pieces of suitable
size secured to a wooden base. The
winding is large enough so that $50
meter and 600 meter stations can be
tuned in. Variation of turns for
tuning is achieved with a switch of
spring brass pivoted in the edge of
the base midway between the end
supported, the upper end of the
switch making contact with the coil
in an arc which exposes the bare
wire so each wire may be tapned. %
knob on the switch arm permits of
easy adjustment of primary turns.
= The secondary may be construct
ed of the same size tubing and
wound with the same size wire cir
cular blocks of wood being fitted
into each end of the tube to
strengthen it and serve as supports
for the secondary switch and bind
ing posts. The secondary tube is
about 4 inches long and wound with
$50 turns tanped every ten turG
each tap being connected to a
switch contact point making a total
bf sixteen switch points.

Fifteen Minutes of Radio Each Day
By EDWARD n. DAVIS

In this type of loose coupler the
secondary does not telescope into
the primary, but is hinged into one
of the end pieces which supports the
primary coil in such a way that the
axis of the primary coil extended
passes through the axis of the Sec
ondary coil. The hinge allows the
secondary coil to be moved away
from the primary thus reducing the
coupling between the two coils. Suf'
ficiently tight coupling for all pur-
poses may De- attained with this ar
rangement DIS it is not necessary to
have the secondary slide inside the
primary coil.
The diagram shows how the loose
coupler described above may be
connected to a crystal detector with
& variable condenser shunted across
the secondary of the coupler to per.
nit of slightly sharper tuning. If
a vacuum tube detector is TO be EN-
ployed the terminal marked % IN
the diagram is connected to the grid
through the grid condenser while
the terminal marked (2) is con-
