How to Choose Your Circuit for the
Set-Building COntest-Part v.

| Since the advent of the neutrodyne
| circuit, the 5-tube arrangement has
| been increasing in popularity until
now 5-tube circuits of many types
/ are about the most popular circuits
on the market.
| Developments in 5-tube circuits
| have been for the most part along
| lines of two stages of tuned radio
| frequency. a tube detector and TWO
stages of audio frequency amplifica =
ton.
Since The original neutrodyne cir
cult made its bow. many variations
of the 5-tube circuit have appeared
some improvements being along the
! line of changes in the circuit while
others have improved the straight
radio frequency circuit by the use of
coils and apparatus of improved de-
sign.
Tendency of Radio Frequency.
The first trouble met with in the de
sign of circuits using two stages OF
tuned radio frequency amplification
was the tendency of the circuits to
produce oscillations when they We're
tuned TO their most efficient oDerat =
ing points. This tendency to go into
oscillation made it possible to obtain
the maximum amplification from the
circuits.
Most Of the improvements in tuned
radio frequency circuits have there
fore been along the lines of controll-
lnI the tendency of the circuits 30
produce such oscilla tious
The tendency of circuit to genera te
oscillations can be curbed by in.
Producing resistance into tho plate
circuit of the offending tube as
is done in the deresnadyne circuit.
In this circuit n 200. 0.000-ohm variable
resistance is inserted in the plate
lead of the radio frequency amplifier
tubes and this resistance can be ad
Justed for best control on the diff
ferent wave lengths This variable
control is necessary because the
tendency of tube circuit To go into
oscillation. varies with different
wave lengths or frequencies.
POtentiOmeter System.
Another method is the well known
potentiometer method In such cir
cults the grid returns from the radio
frequency ampifier tubes are CON
nected with the movable arm of
high resistance potentiometer whose
resistance element is connected across
the a battery. BY adjusting the
movable arm to different points of
the grds of the radio frequency am
plitier tubes can be adjusted to differ
ent values as the set is tuned to diff.
ferent wave lengths. and oscillations
can be controlled by such adjust
ment
The neutrodyne circuit goes to the
root Of the trouble. and by neutraliz-
ing the erid-to-plate capacity il elimi-
mates the possibility of transfer of
energy from plate to grid circuit
through the coupling existing through
the grid-to-plate capacity.
There are various methods for OBJ
tanning this naturalization of the
grid -to-plate capacity in the tube. but
their object is the same. namely. the
control of oscillations by eliminating
the element which makes their pro
duction possible.
Toroid coils are now very popular,
and they help TO eliminate excessive
regenerative or feed-back effects by
confining the fields of the coils. thus

CHAPTER XVII.

iJane went to her room that night,
but she did not undress. Two en-
ttrely opposing lines of reasoning
had ended in inducing one and the
same decision. On the other hand 1t
night be argued that Lady Heritage
and Mr.. Ember. having passed the
greatest part of last night abroad
upon their mysterious business,
would be most unlikely to spend a
second sleepless night so soon, and
Jane might. therefore, count on find
ing the coast clear for a little ex-
pforing on her own account. On the
other hand, an equally logical train
Of thought suggested that these mid
night comings and goings might be
part of a routine, and that Jane, If
on the watch, might acquire some
VERY valuable information.
,She therefore locked her door and
ptoceeded to consider the question of
what she should wear with as much
attention as If she had been going to
q bail. Neither barefoot nor with
Only stockings would she go into any
passage which had left those un-
pleasant dark stains upon Lady Heri-
tage's overall. A really heartfelt
shudder passed over her at the very
idea. No, Renata possessed slippers
of maroon felt. Misguided talent had

the slippers, but they had cork soles
and would at once keep out the damp
and be very silent. She therefore
, placed them in readiness.
;sProlonged hesitation between the
Claims of the crimson flannel dressing &
. gown and an aged blue serge dress
resulted in final selection of the lat
ter. She decided that il would flap
less, and that If it got stained and
damp the housemaids would be less
likely to notice it.
s."Of course, on the other hand" said
Jane to herself, 'if I'm caught, 1t alb
