quency stages, together with the use
of high quality audio frequency trans
formers, are responsible for the fine
tone quality of the receiver. The use
of a G battery eliminates distortion
and reduces excessive B battery cur
rent consumption.
The tuning controls have been sim
plified by the use of tandem con-
densers and I. Trimmer condensers,
Y and z, attached to these tandem
'condensers pei init fine adjustments to
make up for any variation or in
equality in the tuning constants of the
two circuits which each tandem con-
denser controls.
F'ilament control has been simplified
to the utmost by the use of single
rheostat. Since the detector tube op-
crates best at a lower voltage than
that used for amplifier tubes, fixed
resistance, Is. of ohms has been in
troduced in the filament circuit of the
detector tube to produce the necessary
lower voltage across the filament ter
minals of the detector tube.

FOREIGN STATIONS
TO STRESS CALLS
Method Planned in Interna-
tionaI Tests for Benefit of
American Listeners.

The. frequent StresSing of station
call numbers by European broadCas St
ers during International Radio week.
January 24-3o. has been one of the
principal things decided on in an eff
fort to bring results of the broadca ST
ing up To the highest possible point, it
has been announced by Powell Cros
ley. jr.. chairman of the executive
committee for International Radio
week
The lack of call number stressing
last year was d serious drawback TO
the good that was sought" said MI.
Crosley, and every effort will be made
this year to permit the listener-in to
know what station he is hearing
rather than to hear good reception of
the program being broadcast.
Last year many American listeners
were successful in getting foreign re-
ception, but often they had to listen
to a program for as long as 20 min
utes before they were informed what
station it was coming from. AS much
as the ordinary man likes to hear pro
grams, especially of foreign source,
he would rather, during 1nterna tional
Radio Week, be permitted to fish for
another station as soon as he has
found one.
1T is the thrill from getting several
stations rather than simply a foreign
program that the listener wants.
Every effort has been made to have
all foreign stations during Interna-
tional week break into their programs
and announce the station call letters
frequently. In this way the man who
is listening in because he likes the
program will hear the station an
nounced many times and to him this
may seem unnecessary. But on the
other hand, the frequent announcing
will keep the man who is fishing from
waiting too long before trying for an
other station
International Radio week in 1925
will be the biggest radio event of its
kind yet staged in the world. in Mr..
Crosley's opinion, and the good to re-
suit from it will do more toward draw
ing the radio fans of the world to-
cether than any other single thing
thus far.

RADIO THREE-H0UR TRIP
FROM COAST TO COAST

Radio has completed its prepara-

its three-hour trip from New York to
San Francisco tomorrow night.
For its threefold greeting 10 1925
it has arranged a little of everything
from the Ginning of the liberty bell in
Philadelphia to the shouts of negro
revival at Fort Worth.
Beginning at midnight in the East,
where the first welcome will be Of
fered. the celebration will include. in
addition to the liberty bell chimes. the
ringing of bells in old Trinity. with
All of the incidental ceremonies to
that age-old custom: the chimes of
Grace Church. a second of the out
standing New York greetings. and the
revelry at the annual reception to
New York's firemen, to he held at the
New Madison Square Garden.
In the Middle West, an hour after
the New Year has already been runS
in along the Atlantic Coast, other
notable chimes will be broadcast.
