NeutraIizinE Adjustment Needed.
Before the set can be operated to
best advantage it is necessary to
| make the neutralizing adjustment. If
this is not done the set will not ope-
rate efficiently and as a matter of
fact VIII probably be less efficient
than receiver which uses straight
radio frequency amplification.
The method of neutralizing the tube
capacities i'll a neutrodync circuit will
be taken up in detail in tomorrow S
article. in the method described a
special EXETER circuit or source Of
signals is used as that gives a signal
of constant tone and pitch, which
makes the circuit easy to adjust. The
signals obtained from a broadcasting
station are not uniform, as they vary
considerably in tone and intensity
but they also can be used to adjust
the circuit. II you do not care to go
to the trouble and expense Of con-
structing the special EXETER circuit
you can connect the aerial with the
aerial post of the set and the ground
with the ground post of the set and
use broadcasting stations signal
to ADJUST the circuit The method used
is the same as that used with the spe-
cial EXETER circuit
Tuning of the neutrodyne circuit,
once the neutrallZing adjustments
have been made, is very easy, and the
circuit also has the advantage of be-
ing so stable that the same stations
can be brought in later when desired
merely by setting the dialS on the
numbers to which they were set when
the stations were received before
If the circuit has been adjusted
properly, no sQueals should be heard
as the adjustments are made. Tuning
in is not accomplished by the beat
methods SO commonly used in the re-
generative circuits.
The stations slip in and out without
any warning as the dials are ad-
justed.
