RADIO QUERIES

Radio Editor:
l have read with interest the many
recent complaints of code interfer-
ence in your column and observe that
none of the complainants cam dstin-
guish between spark CIV and ICW.
Many times the Bel broadcast Lis
tener) has complained of an alleged
spark station and |. having listened
to the same station, know that it was
one using ICW. In still another
case. a powerful .IcW station was
complained of and l know that that
station was one employing straight
CIV
When the Bel sends in a complaint
it should be as accurate as evidence
produced in judicial court. Probably
every one has read OF the famous mur-
der case in which Abraham Lincoln
argued. One man, said to be an eye
witness, stated that he saw the muir
der plainly as the moon was shining
unusually bright that night. Automati
cally, Lincoln produced an. almanac.
and proved that the night of the muir
der was a cloudy, rainy one, on which
ones hand would hardly be visible
before him without the aid of artifi-
cial illumination .''----
Similarly, a Bel will complain of a
certain CIV station and positively
state that the same was a spark
transmitter, when others who heard
it actually know that it was the
former system. This brings to light
the fact that the average Bel cannot
distinguish between the three modes
of code trausmi ssion-CW. ICW and
spark. Because of this, / am includ-
ing below a concise system by which
one will be enabled to recognize
either form of transmission by it's
characteristic sound
Code signals from spark stations
always have a loud. cracking sound

larly sraced static noises Pure CIV

the interrupted oscillation of the re-
ceiving set.
Often straight CIV signals vary in
tone from low buzzing sounds (re-
sembling those made by a jews -harp)
TO high pitched nasal suueals. The
receiver must be powerfully oscillat-
ing to satisfactorily receive straight
CIV signals.
Signals from ICW stations always
have clear musical buZzing note

low. insectlike buzz to high pitched

Some Details That Are Worth
KnRwtna.

Many of the new tubes are micro
phonic to a considerable extent. but a
great proportion of them are not
affected by mechanical vibration.
1t will be worth your while to try
interchanging the tubes in the various
sockets of your set until you find the
best arrangement. II you rearrange
the tubes in set that has tendency
to "sing' when the table or supports
are touched or struck. you will most
likely find that the rearrangement
will eliminate this undesirable ten
dency of the set to produce noises
when mechanical vibration takes
place close by 1t.
While a crystal detector will not
give the volume and sensitivity of a
vacuum tube ii can be used together
with a tube to produce better results
than could be obtained with the tube
alone.

of the crystal detector circuit can be

considerable amount.
Cause Of Interference.
In % cases out of hundred inter
ference of the type in which two or
more stations come in on your set at
one and the same time is not due to
poor transmitting on the part of the
stations but on poor design of your
receiver.
Before you complain that station

look at your receiver or have some
body who knows som ething about
receiver design trace out the wiring
and investigate the tuning units and
construction ofSthe set.
A few of the. factors that tend to
broaden the tuning of a set are too
close coupling between the primary and
secondary windings of tuners and radio
frequency transformer windings; too
long an aerial system: too many turns
in the primary winding of tuners and
radio frequency transformers: too much
distributed capacity in coils due to poor
winding or the use of sfellac and other
such adhesiyes, and poor design of con-
denSerS. --------------
Antcnna and Ground wires.
Bare or insulated wire may be used
both for aerial and ground wire of a
receiver as long as it conforms to the
sizes required by the board of Fire
Underwriters. Their rule requires that
solid copper or stranded wire, gauge IA
or larger size Qarger size referring &c
the cross section of the wire and not
to the gauge number) or number II
