You may also find that while you

Tuning of the receiver Is done
practically entirely with the two va

The tuning condenser is then va

and for each setting the oscillator
condenser is turned slowly through
its entire range until signals are OBJ
tained. The signals can then be
cleared up by adjustment of both
condensers and the potentiometer and
by turning the loop until best signal
strength is obtained.
Proficiency in the manipulation of
the controls Is gained only through

How to Build . Powerful Eight
Tube superb heterOdyn Receiver.
Part v.

In the operation of q large set of
this kind, using eight tubes, each
dra awing it's quota of energy from
both A and B batteries, the item of
current consumption Is An important
factor to be considered in the selec-
tion of the proper tubes and batteries
to use.
The best all-around results, from
the standpoint Of efficiency of opera
ton and low cost. are obtained when
the UV-201-A type of tubes are used
throughout for oscillator. detectors
and radio and audio frequency am
plifiers. The A battery current con.
sumed by eight of these tubes Is only
equal to that consumed by two Of the
old type UV-200 and Uv-201-A tubes.
The storage battery used should be
OF as large An ampere-hour capacity
as possible, especially IL power
loud speaker which draws current
from the storage battery is used An
S0-ampere- hour battery is none too
large. and a 100 to 100 ampere- hour
battery is to be preferred.
The b batteries should be of the
largest size available, as they are
the only ones which will operate
efficiently and at the lowest cost on
the heavy drain imposed on them.
The volume of sound produced In
the detector stage on stations up to
500 miles away when using a loop
aerial Is rather great, and 1t is some
times necessary to tinker around with
the second detector circuit and the
audio frequency amplifler stages be-
fore the set can be made to operate
satisfactorily without distortion when
receiving strong signals.
You will find it necessary to adjust
he LOT 10 Ill
the oscillator coils to get the best ad-
justment for best results. This ad-
justment, however, is not very crit
ical, the adjustment merely having
the effect of increasing signal
strength or selectivity as the dis
tance is varied.
The same adjustment of distance
of one coil from the other Is also
necessary between coils 80 and 81
or the filter coupler assembly.
The proper value of grid leaks will
often help materially in clearing up
weak signals The best values can
only be found by trial, unless you
