S1xty-three telephone requests in

Selecting and Caring for Headsets.

In spite of the tremendous increase
in the use of loud speakers exclu-
sively for purposes of listening In and

still a factor in reception from dis
tant stations and for use when sin
gle person wishes to listen In.
Phones range in price from about
50 to SS AS with any other product
the quality of a pair of phones can
usually be gauged by the selling price,
but there is often a considerable dif-
ference between phones of different
manufacturers and designs. Before
the entry of the unScrupulous headset
manufacturer the usual method of re-
ferring to the quality of phones or of
DISTINGUISHING the various types was
by mentioning the resistance OF the
winding. The resistance of the wind
ing, of course, was not measure OF
its efficiency, because it would be best
to use a winding having little or no
resistance, but when the proper size
of copper wire was used. the resist
ance was an indication of the amount
of wire used in the winding and there
fore an indicator of the relative eff
cheney of the phones. A winding of
a large number Of turns naturally had
higher resistance than winding of
fewer turns so that the higher resist
ance winding was really more efficient
