BIG STATION PLANNED
FOR SALT LAKE CITY

SALT LAKE CITY, May 13-One
OF the most powerful broadcasting
stations in America is to be placed
at the disposal of Salt Lake City
BY Nathaniel Baldwin, president and
founder Of Nathaniel Baldwin, Inc,
inventor Of the famous Baldwin re-
ceivers.
Equipment valued at $4,000.
capable OF communicating with Chi
cago, Mexico, the Hawaiian Islands,
Vancouver and other points as far
distant will be provided. Installa.
ton will be on the roof Of the
Hotel Utah, Salt Lake Citys pre-

The plant will be ready for oper.
alton by October /, and the Cham.

OF Salt Lake City will have charge
OF all programs for two years, after
which other arrangements will be
made for supervising the broad.

placing either inductances Of resis.
lance in the same relationship. II
1t is desired to increase capacity by
adding another condenser the one to
be added must be placed parallel.
This will produce capacity which
Is the sum of the two.
It has been found ESSENTIAL for
the proper operation Of a detector
tube that small capacity condenser
usually Of .O0026 mid. capacity be
placed in series with the grid and
secondary. In the operation Of this
condenser it Is assumed to store up
energy.
The periodic charge and discharge
of this condenser serve to charge
the grid, causing regulation Of
the flow OF current from the plate.
AS the incoming signal composed
Of modulated or modified series
Of high frequency Impulses comes
In contact with the condenser, the
positive potential builds up on the
one side or plates of the condenser
nearest the secondary, the plates on
the side toward the grid build up a
corresponding negative potential.
- Improves Tones.
A condenser Is a great ADVANTAGE
across the phones. This is known
as blocking condenser. The OBJ.
Ject Of this condenser Is to clear nm
and improve the tones or sound In
the receiver.
The phones have q very high In.
ductance due to the great number
OF turns OF wire on each pole. When

is placed. One plate or series Of
plates is connected to one side of
the electrical circuit, the other plate
or series OF plates IL connected to
the other side Of the circuit.
At the present time most fixed
condensers on the market consist
Of plates Of tin foil separated by
thin sheets Of mica with an in
sulating plate on top and bottom
to protect the assembly, Until re-
Gently the radio market was flooded
with paper condensers. These ocn-
densers consist of two plates or
strips of tinfoil with q strip of
waxed paper between them. The
paper condenser is a very inferior
device due to the absorption Of
moisture ana the liability Of leakage
through minute spots in the paper
not thoroughly covered with wax.
The best fixed condenser available
for radio use today consists Of
plates Of copper fail separated by
mica plates. The conductivity Of
copper 10 much higher than tin. Of.
fering almost no resistance to the
current while tin gives considerable.
Danger In Soldering
Nearly all fixed condensers are
placed in such positions in a radio
set that 1t is more convenient tc
solder them in order to insure con.
tact. The melting point Of tin IL
quite low and injury is frequently
caused while soldering with an
especially hot iron. This cannot
happen with copper plates.
The effect produced by connecting
condensers in series and parallel Is
opposite to the effect produced by
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1924-05-13

the finer control Of current. II a
condenser is not inserted. a crude
substitute is taken advantage Of in
the form of capacity action between
the phone cords.
A condenser should be used Of
such capacity that it in combina.
ton with the phone inductance will
result in natural frequency cor
responding to the average frequency
Of the tones received.
A most important fixed condenser
ID placed across the primary OF the
first audio frequency transformer.
Unrectified high frequencies are
constantly passing the detector. The
high resistance Of the transformer
winding places an impedance in
their pathway. High pitched
whistling sounds or even an almost
lack OF signal in the phones may
result. This condenser affords q
pathway around this transformer,
the lower audible freQuenciee
passing through the transformer.

IN fERENcE
HAS SEVEN
CAUSES
Listener-in Can EIiminaxe
Trouble With But Little
Inconvenisnce

Broadcast reception may be dis
turbed by seven causes :. of inter
fercnce. With the exception Of
severe atmospheric disturbances
which, for the most part do not
last long. they can be eliminated
by the fan. Even the excetional
source Of Interference can be d.
Tninished considerably.
Interlocking waves of broadcast
ing stations IL the most persistent
and severe form Of interference. ana
this gives the fan the most trouble.
The answer IL the same in all
cases; decrease the coupling between
the primary and secondary, or use q
loop receiver.
The next in the order Of diff.
culties IL the sQucaling receiver.
There 10 little to be hoped for in
cooperation from the owner Of q
sQuealing set, so It II necessary to
remove ones aerial to another
direction to escape the full effect
of the radiating antenna. II this
does not accomplish results It "a
necessary to install O loop or an
indoor aerial. varying direction I'M
I'll maximum freedom from inter.
ference il found.
Same Remedy.
Absorption by naiehboring aerI.
ais Ia another source Of trouble.
When several Aerials are strung in
close proximity their mutual In.
duction makes 1t difficult to retain
a signal unless the other fellows
stop tuning. The remedy for this
IL the same as for the sQuealing
receiver.
Interference from telegraph sta
tons is no longer bothersone on
broadcast wavelengths, because OF
q ruling by the Department Of Com
merce combining the coast and ship
stations to 500 meters for message
traffic. This ruling was a result of
protests from the fans requesting
the transfer from the $50 meter
wave. Because Of the high power
OF these stations interference some
times comes through over a thous-
and miles from ships at sea oper-
ating on the old wave. The solu.
ton Of this problem IN the loop,
which can be turned away from
the disturbing wave.
Use OF the loop also solves the
problem OF interlocking waves from
distant broadcasting stations. Four
big stations, WDAP, Chicago; WGI,
Medford Hillside: WIN, New York:
and WMAK. Lockport, operate on
$50 meters. Obviously, It IL impos-
sible to escape q cross-wave effect,
when these stations are all operat.
ing, without using super selectivO
instruments.
Selection Can Be Made.
However, with a loop and loosely
coupled interstage radio frequency
transformers 1t Is not difficult to
select one OF these stations to the
exclusion OF the others.
Static disturbances can be bal
anced out fairly we'll with a loop
used in connection with an aerial,
or a loop alone. Static IL direc-
ttonal, and it can be tuned out in
this way.
The last Of the seven sources Of
Interference comes from neighbor-
ing electrical equipment that In
duces noises in the set. The best
way to handle this problem 10 at
the source. Find the trouble and
remove 1t. If this is impossible use
a loop.
