SPARKS

II the very best is desired in a set
that employs variable condenscrs for
tuning. get condensers that have ver-
niers built in. These are two-plate
condensers, mounted directly on the
main shaft and controlled by a sepa-
rate arm. Rough adjustments are
made on the big condensers, and
very fine regulation is made with the
verniers. The latter, before being
touched, should be kept in half way,
so that adjustments can be made
either way, as necessary.
Too much emphasis can not be
laid on the importance or the neces-
sity OF the right value of the grid
leak. If it is not correct the set will
howl numerically. Do not buy grid
condensers with the leaks already
built in. Buy a separate ggid con-
denser, and either make or buy a
leak that can be varied easily, such
as the pencil-line type. II the set
does howl, try rubbing out some OF
the lines, and if the set doesn't work
the way you think it should, try rub
bing some more on.
