survey Of fading and static, to be
conducted by the Stewart-Warner

unexpected reports on the insidious
activities Of the moon.
Published reports Of private inquir-
les into the cause Of disturbances that
prevent good radio reception so far
have dealt with the manner in which
atmospheric conditions are changed
by sun spots, comets and eclipses.
Even the aurora borealis has been in+
vestigated, but it has never been sug-
gested that the phases of the moon
might have anything to do with the
adenoidal performance of distant So
pranos.
R. c. Terrien, an electrical engineer
Of Chicago, has forwarded to ]. K.
Smith, director of the national tests,
! a report covering a period Of Is
months. He suggested that it be IN

and possibly at other times during
the year.

remembered what I had learned re

REGENERATION IS
NOT SYNONYMOUS
WITH RADIATION
(By Powell CrOsley, Jr.)

Wy 0WC4 OAOoACJa oAsy
Many people have the mistaken
idea that regeneration means radia-
tion, or vice versa. This is not true.
Regeneration and radiation are not
Synonymous, and should not be con-
fused.
A radio set may contain regenera-
ton in its circuit without offending
by radiating. On the other hand, a
sO-called non-regenerative receiver
may be, anu frequently is, a most
violent offender from radiation. A
radio set radiates-sometimes im-
properly called 'reradiates"-when
the tube directly CT magnetically con-
nected to the anterna, oscillates and
causes the antenna likewise to os-
cillate and give off energy.
Worst Offenders
While it is true that a single circuit
r~egenerative receiver, having the de-
tector directly connected +? the an
tenna, can be made to radiate, no sig.
nails can be received while the tube
is in a state of oscillation or radia-
ton. Such sets generally use very
low "B" battery potentials, thus re-
ducing the power Of radiation to a
minimum, and furthermore, the con
troll of oscillations is directly in the
hands Of the user, and with reason
ably proper use,. such sets cause but
little interference, and only in a COM
paratively small short radius. On
the ether hand, many of the sO-called
nOn-regenerative tuned radio fire.
quency sets, although perfectly bal
anced in the factory for certain types
of tubes and at certain wave lengths,
become the worst possible offenders
miniature braOdcasting stations in eff
feet, having high "B' battery poten-
tials on the first radio frequency
tube, and using tubes for which the
set was net balanced, cause the IN
controlled condition of oscillations in
the antenna, which results in serious
continuous uninterrupted interference
over a much broader radius.
The difference between these two
types Of radio receivers is that a re-
geuerative receiver in the state Of cs-
cillation, or in a state wherein il
radiates, cannot receive broadcast
signals and the oscillations must be
controlled before satisfactory per
formance q be received. On the
ether hand, a tuned radio frequency
receiver with its first tube in tn,
state of oscillation while not perform.
ing satisfactorily, cannot be control,
led, and, consequently, continually
emits interference.
Ideal Combination
An ideal combination is a Circuit
wherein a muffler tube is used be
tween a regenerative tube and th'
antenna. Thus regeneration en- b,
used in a receiving set without any
radiation. In this combination Ct re
generation and balanced radio fire
quency amplificatiOn, a receiver in
cooperating regeneration becomes thu
ideal type of receiver from the poin
Of view Of elimination of radiation
as well as taking advantage Of tn
wonderful efficiency of regeneration i
Gmplification, selectivity and volume
So, again allow US to observe tina
radiation is not Synonymous with re
generation.

type of work is valuable to the pu-
pills, in that the subjects. especially
of the history and geography, are
vitalized and an intense interest is
awakened by both pupil and teach
ers. The pupils of the sixth grade
and the seventh grade have made d
number of Maine Products maps,
showing the different products rails
ed or manufactured in the several
sections of the State. These maps
have been carefully constructed and
i'll the making of them the grade
pupils have become familiar with the
State as a whole and the chief pro-
ductive centers. Beside the actual
map making the pupils are required
to supplement this work with a COM

of Maine has been sent by the sixth
