times wv 1887"
Ans: The wv 1895 have the small
est internal capacity of any of the
RCA tubes and because of this are
really better for radio frequency amp
LITIGATION than are the wv 201A's.
GA. E. F. says: IL am using an
old storage A battery which is still
giving good service although it's wood
en- case is acid-soaked and is rotting
away. Would this be likely to make
the reception on my receiver noisy?"
Ans: If the battery is placed upon
some good insulating material, it will
probably not make your set noisy.

tage is there, if any, in using the
