Pay Especial Attention
to Sockets and Tubes

The humble socket, used to hold
the vacuum tube and to provide the
means of making an electrical contact
between the prongs of the tube and
the rest of the circuit. receives less
attention from the radio fan than 1t
should.
The socket should be carefully scru-
tinized. for 1t Is at this point that
the plate and grid wires and filament
leads come very close TO each other.
II the socket is made of poor insulat-
ing material these currents will leak
across the base between the binding
posts and become lost. The volume
and distance Of the receiver will suf-
fer. Nothing less than bakelite should
be used.
Do not accept socket made of ma
terial that can be easily cut with a
knife or will leave a black mark when
rubbed across piece of white paper.
Material that will do this has lamp
black in it, which Is a very poor In.
sulating substance. AS a rule this
class of material will melt under the
heat of soldering iron.
The socket should also be nonmicro-
phonic. In a receiver which uses or
binary sockets, a loud ring will be
heard whenever the set is Jared.
Often removing the hand from the
tuner dial will be sufficient to cause
the tubes to set up this ring.
To cure this many set-builders fasten
their sockets on soft rubber sponges
to absorb vibration. The chief objec-
ton to this method is that If you use
screws to hold the socket down to the
Dashboard or use bus bar wiring to the
binding posts, the socket is mechanical
" connected to the Dashboard and the
rubber support does not help great
deal in reducing noises.

What You Should Know
About Drilling Panels

The simplest things III radio are the.
ones that are apt to cause the most
trouble. For instance, drilling the
panel. This Is an almost insurmount-
able obstacle to some of the builders
who have never constructed a me-
chanical contrivance in their lives and,
who view the brace and bit as a tool
of the master mechanic.
First it is necessary to lay out the
position and size of the holes to be
drilled. Where an instrument Is held
in place with two or more setscrews 1t
is best to make q halfinch hole for the
center shaft, If the instrument Is then
slightly off. 1t will still turn easily ON
its bearings without binding.
In the cartons containing the instru-
ments are often inclosed templates
showing the spacing Of the holes to be.
drilled. These should be used when
drilling the holes. If made of paper
they can be pasted directly on the.
panel and the holes drilled through
them. The paper is then removed with
wet cloth.
If 1t is necessary TO calculate your
own positions. do so by measuring the.
distance that one, side of the hole is
from the shaft and then the distance
below it. For instance. rule Is laid
against the shaft and touching the set
screw The reading on the ruler with
one-half the diameter of the shaft. or
an eighth of an inch. will be the dis
tance to one side. Then by doing this
straight up and down, instead of side
ways, the depth will be found. Now
from the center hoie-mark, measure,
the proper distance to one side and the,
proper depth from there Mark anct
drill. The location of the other hole
or holes may be determined by revers-
ing the procedure.

of the others for the same number of

number. Usually Is are used but any
odd number can be used. and. or
course. the smaller the diameter the
lie the number of pins. In the sole
mold type, the coil will slip off the
pins, so the pins are not removable
from the board necessarily.
In the solenoid winding. as In the.
edge winding, the basket-weave coll
is obtained by winding over and under
one pin at a time. Tie LorenZ wind
ing is obtained as shown by the dotte4
line, winding in and out, over and un-

Some phone cords are marked with

aren't marked try them connected one
way and then reverse these conditions.
The positive side will be indicated by
the connection that gives the clearest

Low-loss coils require large wire,
good spacing between turns and, pref
erably, no supporting dielectric. Ii
one uses supporting tube or frame
work he must be sure 1t is high quar-
ity. Keeping metal out of the heid
of the coil is important.
The difference between the various
ways Of winding is shown in the fig
ures. OF course, every one knows
that coil wound on tube, or so that
the completed coil itself forms tube,
is known as a solenoid winding. 1t is
probably the most common form of
winding we find.
Then there is spiral winding In which
the diameter of the coils progressively
increases. One turn is wound on top
of the other outward so the resulting
coil Is one turn wide. 1t resembles
somewhat the fiat pancake type, the
form for which is at the right of Fig. 2.
This type is called the spider-web
coil for obvious reasons. The inner d.
ameter or diameter of the first turn. Is
usually about an inch and a half.
There must be an odd number of slots.
Usually the winding goes in one slot
and out the other, under and over
each spoke in turn. There is no rea-
son why 1t should not go under two
and over two just as In the LorenZ
windings shown in the other figures.
The usual Reinartz coil Is a spider
web coil and can be very easily made
by cutting a 6 to S-inch disk of d.
ner shown.
characteristics Of Coils.
Basket-weave coils are of two types.
edge wound, resembling the spiral and
spider-web, or solenoid wound, resem-
bling the coil on a tube. The same
forms may be used for basket weave
as for Lorenz and are illustrated In
Figs. l and 2.
In Fig. Is shown the most con-
venient form you can have around the
work table. 1t Is a center disk with 13
cylindrical spokes. The made-up form
may be purchased complete. 1t may
be made from sawed-Off piece of
curtain rod and 13 spokes. The spokes
must be removable. however. There
must be an odd number of them and
they can be any material. as can the
center. Thirteen Is just a convenient,
lucky number.
In winding the edgewise basket
weave the wire will go over one spoke
and under the next, over and under
one spoke at time. The resulting
coil will be a latticework effect sim
liar to the reed baskets SO often seen
or reed furniture.
The Winding.
In winding the Lorenz coil, go over
two spokes and under two, over and
under two at time continually. Be
cause there is an odd number, you will
continually shift the starting point for
each turn, as shown at the left of Fig.
/. While both first and second turns
start by going over spoke A, one goes
over and one goes under spoke B.
This is because of the odd number of
spokes not divisible by two. The re-
susting coil is shown at the right of
Fig. l, with more of trellis effect.
Both sides are smooth, while neither
side of the basket weave Is smooth.
The basket weave. however. Is self
holding but the Lorenz coil must be
tied with string at the corners as in
dicated, before pulling out the spokes.
That is. the white cord one sees on
the coils sold commercially.
