to set as shown, by the simple adj
ditfon Of the .0005 variable condenser
and slight change in the wiring
OF the plate circuit.
Both hookups are shown in the
drawings, one being the standard
and two being the modification.
Parts Of Set.
For those who are not familiar
with the parts OF this set, they are
as follows: The primary coll is
either IS or so turns coil in series
with a .001 microfarad condenser.
The secondary coil is so or IS
turns coil shunted by q .O005 vari-
able condenser. The ticker coil
(the one connected to the PLATED is
rs to 100 turns coil. The coils
vary for low or high brOadcastfng
wave lengths. For lhe lower waves
you use. q IS, so and IS, for the
higher a SO, rs and 100.
The condenser for the improved
set. which is connected in series
with the ticker coil, should be
.O005 and giEe accurate control OF
regeneration.
The best method for mounting
these parts Is, to have the three
variable condensers mounted equi-
distant on the panel and the mount
ing for the three coils directly
above the secondary condenser.
With this layout, wiring connec.
tons from the coils to the con-
densers are uniform.
How Tuning Is Done.
Most Of the tuning is done by
the secondary and ticker conden-
81.
been set in the best position. The
and may be anywhere from four
the secondary coil. In the stand
ard circuit regeneration is con-
trolled by either changing the posi-
ton of the ticker coil or raising or
lowering the filament current, while
with the Weagant hoolup, It is
done by use OF the ticker variable
condenser, which is smoother.
To Tune In.
Tuning of this set is as follows:
Close couple all~ three coils. Put
the first variable condenser about
half way in. Set the ticker con-
denser where the tube begins to os-
cillate and then back off on 1t. Move
the secondary variable condenser
over its entire scale and some sta
ton will be picked up.
When you hear one, turn the first
condenser until the best place is
found, then separate the primary
and secondary coils about an inch
or so and retune the second con.
denser until signal is loudest. Sep.
arate the primary and secondary
still farther and retune both con.
densers. A As degree angle Of
coupling between primary and sec
ondary will be found a good all
around distance which win give you
selectiwty and at the same time not
make 1t difficult to pick up sta
lions.
The farther the coils are separ-
ated. the sharper the tuning win be.

Communion Service |.
to be Broadcast
by N. Y. Church

NEW YORK, April 1B.
Microphones to carry what rs
said to be the first entire COM
munion service ever broadcast
are being placed in the West
End Presbyterian Church here,
so that worshippers seated in
their homes "listening in'' may
participate in the Good Friday
communion service tonight.
The unique attempt to carry
the special service to the peo-
pie is the idea of Reverend
Doctor Keigwin, pastor Of the
church. The services will be
broadcast by Station WIZ, Of
the Radio Corporation Of
America,
During the passing Of the
bread and wine, organ music
viii be played loudly enough to
carry to the sshome congrega-l
ton" Those in the church will
be asked not to partake of the
bread and wine until every one
IS served, so the radio fans may
partake at once.
Doctor Keigwin advises radio
fans to use wine, If available,
or grape juice, and ordinary
bread.

I The train was made up Of three
cars and locomotive. The cars
were like any others. except that
the forward car roof had two wires

was one Of the few places where
signals faded, and then only a. the
car passed between the steel arms.
The schedule on the first day out
was something like this: 1880 to II,

Curious Phenomena.
Many interesting phenomena were
recorded during the trip. When
ever the train passed through cut
approximately as high or higher
than the car the signals were de.
creased, but Immediately retained
to normal strength when the car
emerged from the cut. Sand or
stone seemed to have about the
same effect so far as the observers
could tell.
Iron bridges and steel frame
buildings or heavy power, telephone
and telegraph lines produced the
same effect I'm a greater or lesser
degree. On the other hand, PASS.
ing Trains did not appear to pro-
duce a noticeable decrease in signal
strength.
