stand discomfort rather than have
their feet unbecomingly shod.
So she doesn't advise all women

number of turns between slider 2 and
ground should be kept less than a
third Of the number between slider 1
and ground. This will allow the an
tenna circuit to- oscillate much more
freely at It's natural period. If using a
single variometer better tuning may
be had by tapping off the detector cir
c1it. as in Fig. 2, about three-fourths
of the stationary coll Of the variometer,
instead Of hooking 1t across the entire
variometer.
The loose coupler is very much to be
preferred over either Of these two tun-
Ing schemes. The two circuits are
loosely coupled to each other by induc-
tion and both circuits will have
higher resistance to any but the wave
length to which they are tuned. each
tending to damp out the undesired
signal. The crystal Is causing rather
broad tuning In the secondary circuit,
but the antenna circuit with 1t is
rather broad In low resistance, Is left
to oscillate freely, and will be sharply
tuned. This will exclude to a great
extent signals on any but the desired
wave length. These signals, II In.
duced into the secondary ct all, will
be greatly weakened. The secondary,
though broadly tuned, will still have a
greater resistance to any signals not
on It's own natural wave length.
The secondary circuit can be made
still more selective by carrying out the
same scheme as In the first two figures ;
that is, by connecting the crystal
across only part Of the circuit.
Sharp tuning cannot be obtained
with any ordinary outfit between local

tor; 1t Is almost impossible with. q

outfit by using very loose coupling to
the antenna circuit or by using loop
to pick up the signals.

some trouble In one OF . dozen pieces
Of your apparatus. During these perl
odic lapses there Is usually some talk
that you would like to have heard or .
particular concert. A crystal detector
will fll In these blanks very well, and
you will be surprised at the quality Of
the music our broadcasting stations are
sending out when you hear 1t via the
crystal instead Of at the noisy end Of
q two-step amplifier.
Many Of the so-called disadvantages
Of the crystal detector can be partially
overcome.
Crystal receivers usually tune broad
ly; that Is, small change In tuning
does not cause a very great change In
signal strength, and a station ceo be
heard over quite range of tuning.
This means that II two stations are
sending and their wave lengths are not
very far apart 1t will be impossible to
tune one In and exclude the other,
whereas II the receiver tunes sharply,
station will be heard over very
narrow band Of wave lengths. In other
words, a very few degrees either way
from the point where the best audi
bility is obtained will tune the station
out. Then some selectivity can be had
between two stations even IL separated
only by few meters with sharply
tuned receiving set.
The crystal In the usual hookups
introduces a resistance into the oscil-
lating circuit, causing that circuit to be
somewhat aperiodic. That is, 1t will
respond to more than one wave length.
1t is rather hard to tune sharply
with a crystal and a single tuning COIL
In this case the crystal must be
shunted across at least part OF, the
inductance and there Is no way of
keeping II entirely out of any Of the
circuits which may be used. In order
to keep 1t as sharply tuned as possible,
1t is best to reduce the number OF
turns shunted by the detector circuit
as low as possible without sacrificing
too much signal strength. If the cir
,uit shown In Fig. / Is used. the

The question of the beginner.

DO NOT DESPISE
CRYSTAL DETECTOR
1t Is Dependable and Cheap and
Every Amateur Receiving Set
Should Have One.

There is considerable to know about
the crystal, and little knowledge viii
enable the operator to get better re.
suits and bring increased respect for
this instrument. There are many rea.
sons for the longing of the owner OF a
crystal receiving set for the vacuum
tube outfit. However. he has great
many advantages which the owner of
the more expensive outfit does not pos
sess.
For instance, the crystal reproduc-
ton Of the radiophone broadcastIng is
of the best possible quality. The ac-
tion being only rectifying there is no
chance of distortion. The tube re-
ceiver nearly always distorts to some
extent II maximum regeneration is
used, even though the tube Is not al
lowed to oscillate, distortion is bound
to result. Transformer or choke coil
coupling between Amplifiers, no grid
bias or wrong grid bias, poorly
matched tubes and transformers or bad
loud talker will all cause distortion.
A combination Of several Of these often
causes very great distortion.
When the crystal receiver Is out Of
commission II does not take a genius
to locate the trouble. The circuit and
the adjustments are simple. A burned
out tube means $500 or more for an
other. A bad crystal means a little

does not go out Of commission period
ically as the tube set does, due to a
worn out battery.
The crystal set Is quiet In action,
adding no noise of itself, as do many
of the detector tubes. Reception
through static is nearly always more
easily accomplished with q crystal.
The atmospherics seem to be brought
In all out Of proportion to the signal
by the tube detectors, while the crystal
seems to damp out the high voltage
peaks of the static or strays to some
extent, leaving the signals, which are
strong enough for 1t to rectify audibly,
very clear.
The crystal set has numerous dis

1t Is not very stable, d slight Jar
often being sufficient to "knock out" a

a crystal may be made to amplify and
It does not give sufficient signal
strength to use with loud talker.
1t usually causes broad tuning, which
makes 1t difficult to tune out inter-
ference. II is not as sensitive to faint
signals as the vacuum tube, although
1t is surprisingly sensitive when prop
erly adjusted. Adjusting the crystal Is
a tedious task, and 1t has become espe-
cially so since the labor-saving vacuum
tubes have become so numerous.
A crystal detector should be included
In every receiving set. 1t is depend
able, cheap, and takes up little space.
