Nuts, Posts, Contact
Points, Knobs, Cells

When buying contact points get
those with high heads and two nuts,
and see that the nuts screw all the
way up to the heads. Contact points
with only one nut are likely to cause
"a lot of annoyance by working loose
under the action of the switch lever,
but where two nuts are used, one nut
to hold the contact point frm and the
other nut to lock that one, there will
never be any trouble. When buying
binding posts see that the head screws
all the way. and also see that the
screw of the binding post Is not so
long that when the head Is screwed
down all the way, after allowing for
panel or Dashboard thickness. there Is
too much space. otherwise the post
will not grip the wire tightly. Wher
buying dlals see that the set screw

cells or h batteries see that the bind.
ing posts are not In that condition
where little handling Will cause them
to break OFF, and see that the heads
screw easily and all the way on the
screws. These little attentions to de
tails when purchasing will save lot

Wave Filter That Will

Radio filters are most useful In de-
creaslng interference when q single
circuit tuner is used, because the In

many cases where a filter will more

done by experimenters with alters, ap-
parently. and 1t seems to the writer
to be particularly fruitful field for
Investigation.
The filter shown in the accompany
ing diagram. instead of being put di.

lively coupled to several turns, which
are wound directly over the filter coll,
and these turns are in series with

Unfortunately static and 3 battery
noises start about the same time.
Radio sets put in operation In the
late fall and winter are usually
equipped with everything new, from
tubes to B batteries. During the
course of the winter practically ev-
erything but the B batteries are re-
placed, thus when the hot weather ap-
proaches they are run down and the
chemical action inside the minute cells
has succeeded In loosening connec-
tions and otherwise running the battery
and at the same time along comes the
summer with its atmospheric disturb
ances and poor old static gets panning.
The noises Of wornout B battery
are far more frequent than the atmos-
pheric disturbances and usually much
sharper.

low ratio. If two steps are added, this
transformer should be replaced by d
high ratio transformer and the low

The tube must be of the hard type.
Do not use soft gaseous detector tube
for amplification. A wv 201, WD II
or ~, wv 100, or wv POI A can be used
In this circuit. The plate voltage will
be determined by the best operation of
the tube. 1t will be somewhere be-
tween % IL and 90 volts. Most tubes
Will do very well on about As volts.
The A. or fi'ament, battery's size will
depend upon the tube used. The POI
tube will necessitate the use of a stOr.
age battery, because of Its high am
peragef while the other tubes will work
more or less economically on the dry
cells. The Nv 199 tube can be oper'
ated from a couple Of flashlight cells
connected In series.
Either wire or graphite rheostats

proper values for the tubes. A six-ohn
