FOR INCREASED EFFICIENCY

After tubes are in use for months,
the efficiency of a receiver can -besin-
creased sometimes by changing the
tubes to different sockets. This is
especially true of five-tube receiver,
where there are two stages of radio
frequency application and two
stages of auto-frequency amplifica-
