work can often be saved, especially in
erecting an aerial on an apartment
house roof, If the point at which the
1ead-in Is taken can be arranged to
come nearly directly above the point
where the lead-in is to enter the win
dow.
If three supports are available and
the point at which the lead-in is to
be taken lies in the triangle formed
by the three points of support. this
can be arranged very easily, as
shown in figure /.
In this case, of an apartment in
which the window faces into a court,
A would be an ideal lTpoint from which
to take the lead-n. The available
supports, B. c and D. however, would
make 1t necessary to use some form
of insulating arm to bring the lead
in over the edge of the roof, If only
two supports, either b and d or C
and d were used. The stretch be-
tween b and c would be too short.
In this case, the best thing to do
is to take two wires, one going from
B to A to ID, and the other from c
to A with enough left to act as the
lead-in. The wires are joined at A,
making a very efficient type of aerial
In erecting an aerial, it is not
necessary to tighten up the span so
as to bend the poles to great eX-
tent. A little slack should be left,
thus preventing undue strain on the
supports. The slight slack can then
be taken up by pulling the lead-in
wire taut
In cases of isolated houses where
only one support can be erected, the
umbrella type of aerial Is the best
to use. Make the support as high as
poSSible, erect it near the center of
the house and bring the insulated guy
wires, which act as the aerial wires,
to the far corners of the house.

What Every Radio Fan Should Know
About Aerials and Their Construc-
tiOn.
PART ".


Since it is impossible to fit a stan
dard type of aerial to all conditions
of location it is necessary to consider
the various elements of aerial con-
struction separately and to use COM
binations of the elements to construct
an aerial system that will fit condi
tions in hand.
Practically any aerial system con-
sists of the following separate and
distinct parts: The aerial supports;
the aerial span; the insulating system
of the aerial span: the supporting
wires; the lead-in; the insulating sys
tenn for the leadin at points where
the lead-in Is to be brought over the
edge of the roof or over projecting
points OF the house; the insulating
system at the point where the lead-in
is brought into the house through the
waH or window: the protective sys-
tenn lightning arrester .connectionS),
and the ground connection.
Where a support for the far end of
the aerial span is handy in the form
pole or any other such structure, op-
posite the window through which the
aerial lead-in is to be brought, the
erection of the aerial is a very sim
pie matter. All that is necessary is to
fasten the aerial at the far point and
at a point next the window, of course
insulating the aerial span from the
supports by the usual insulating sys-
tenn as shown in figures / and of
Mondays article.
Evening star., 1924-10-17

In other cases, when the far sup
port is on the other side of the house,
it is best to run the wire from pole
or other high point on the roof of the
house and bring the lead-in over the
edge OF the roof.
The Importance of having the
aerial as high as possible over the
roof or over surrounding objects can
not be emphasized too much. Many
fans will spend the greater part of
the day mussing around their own
cellar and in the woodsheds of their
friends trying to find long strong
support or will waste lot of time
trying to construct such a support
from small pieces. Tho best and
cheapest thing to do is to go to the
nearest lumber yard and get one or
two lengths. depending on the num-
Der of supports you require, of lum-
ber, about Is feet long, 3 inches wide
and inches thick.
These pieces make admirable sup
ports and the cost of such strips
rarely exceeds a dollar and a half 1t
will behoove you to be penny wise and
pound foolish in this matter Of getting
the proper aerial supports.
These poles can be fastened to the
many pipes available on apartment
house roofs: long wood screws known
as Tag screws can De OSed To fdSten
them against the sides of skylights; !;
ChimneyS form a very handy means
of support; on fiat roofs. the bottom
end can be fitted on a fiat board
which will act as the base and the
pole can then be kept erect by means
of guy wires running from the top
of the pole, to points around the
pole and some distance from the base.
If you cannot get the wood poles
you can get your plumber to give
you a piece of one-inch pipe, about
90 feet long.
A lot Of bothersome construction
