ties and mud socket" Is employed
in the detector circuit. or in fact,
throughout the whole set, all the low
loss apparatus used IN conjunction
with II becomes useless. 1t Is rather
difficult for the average radio ran
to pick out a good tube socket from
the thousands of various makes which
he has to pick from in a large city.
However. there Is one good plan that
holds when purchasing any type or
form Of radio equipment.
Always keep your eyes open when
visiting radio dealers. Notice what
equipment they use in their own set.
Judge from the actual results-if 1t
sounds good. purchase the make OF
apparatus used in the exhibition set.
But that is getting slightly off our
subjective started to tell of the best
method to buy radio equipment.
In our estimation, the best method
is to purchase the products of an old,
well-knQwn. reliable manufacturer.
There are 10 or il very well-known
companies who put out exceptionally
fine radio apparatus. IT is not Gus
tomary for the real business com
panies TO place poor quality apparatus
at the disposal of the country and
thereby jeopardize their standing
with the radio public.
The reflex set described in this ar
tbcle is also put up in the form of
Unfinished set. where the apparatus
is all mounted on the panel and base
board, but not hooked up. In this
manner the fan can construct the out
fit by simply wiring 1t and yet have

OF course there is nothing wonder

YOU stop to consider the fact that
only a threetube set was being used
and In the heart of the city, you may
agree that perhaps it was rather good

vY7E WERE right at the height
w of our dancing as one of the
w local stations signed off for
the evening. We concluded that
there would be no more dancing that
night, at least not through the
medium of radio orchestra. How
ever, we must have made mistake,
for a slight turning of the dials
brought in the familiar strains of a
popular fox trot. Surely this was
not a DIX station; 1t must be one of
the locals that we missed earlier
in the night. And so we went on
with the dance.
At the finish of the selection every
one present was startled to hear the
old familiar voice say: "W WM-B-F,

4 few words regarding the makes
of the various instruments used In
this set will not be amiss here: The
variable condensers need not be OF
any specific manufacture, so long as
they are of low-loss design and are
of .00025 micrfarad capacity.
The two rheostats should be well
constructed and be purchased from a
manufacturer who can be depended
upon to sell reliable, well made in
