1t will give you a stronger signal with
which to work. The signal you get
in the grid circuit, however, also de-
pends on the amount of energy that
is transferred from the aerial circuit
to the grid circuit of the detector or
radio frequency amplifier. and this
transfer of energy is determined by
the degree of coupling between the
aerial and grid circuit and also by
the number of turns in the aerial
coil. which is coupled with the grid
coil.
The closer the coupling between
the aerial and grid coils, the broader
the tuning and the greater the
trouble you will have in separating
stations. The more the number of
turns on the aerial coil the greater
will be the transfer of energy from
aerial cell to grid coil and the
broader will be the tuning.
The reasons why shortening the
aerial. decreasing coupling and de
creasing the number of turns on the
primary coil reduce interference and
sharpen up tuning, is shown in the
diagram. We will take an arbitrary
curve, exaggerated to bring out the
points of the discussion.
The horizontal scale indicates the
wave length and the vertical scale
amplitication or response of a certain
signal.
We will first consider the effect of
the size of the aerial. Curves A, B
and G are the audibility curves OBJ

Selectivity-How Ii Is Attained.

1t Is interesting TO consider how
rumors originate and grow up to be
Authoritative statements. Many
such misconceptions center about the
aerial system.
The first thing we Will consider
about an aerial is the relation of
length of aerial to efficiency of the
receiver. Most fans Will tell you that
the longer the aerial the greater dis
tance you can expect to get with
your receiver and, conversely, the
shorter the aerial the greater diff
Guilty you will have in getting dis
tance.
This matter of sensitlvity to get
distance and seleetivity for cutting
through local to get distance Ia as
much q matter of set design as 1t
is of aerial design.
Grid Circuit Explained.
The amount of energy delivered to
the grid circuit OF your detector or
radio frequency amplifier tube de-
termines the relative audibility of the
signal. A long aerial will collect a
greater amount of energy in your
aerial circuit than Il short one will,
and, therefore, the longer aerial
stands more chance of giving You
greater sensitivity In picking up dis
tant stations because of the fact that
Evening star., 1925-09-11

while the response Is great, the
curves overlap SD that there is al
ways a background of neighboring
stations. If the aerial is cut down
in length. curves ID, Il and L are
obtained at the various wave length
adjustments. and while the response
is not as great, none of them overlap
and each setting does not contain a
background of some other station.
This is the effect produced by de
creasing the size of the aerial.
Decreasing the amount of coupling
between the aerial coil and the grid
coil has an effect very similar to
that shown for decrease in the
size of aerial. Decreasing the mum
ber of turns In the aerial coil also
has a similar effect. The sum total
of the results of decreasing aerial
size, coupling and number OF turns
In aerial coil > is to increase the
selectivity by reducing signal strength
and narrowing the wave length band

RADIO DEALERS TO GIVE

Afternoon, September 80, to Be

The Radio Merchants Association
has decided to assist in giving more
shut-ins radio receivers, as they have
been forcibly impressed with the fact
that hundreds of shut-ins are so
greatly entertained by radio.
The hospitals have had their needs
filled and friends are daily helping
their sick ones. but there are many
who lie all day long with no diversity.
These need music, lectures. base ball
games, church services and all the rest
of the things which may be brought
to them through the radio.
Radio dealers have decided to ap-
propriate the receipts derived at the
door of the radio show, Washington

Those who know of shut-ins who
are unable to buy receiver and would
appreciate one may advise r. N.
