FOR THE NOTE BOOK

Put a fresh grid leak in the set
about once year.
The best solder is made Of equal
parts of tin and lead.
Fading is much less troublesome
in daylight than at night.
Antenna insulators should be
cleaned every six months.
Use a "C' battery to reduce the
"B'' battery consumption.
Hydrometers are not used with
nickel-iron storage batteries.
Static noises are worst in a set
on the approach of storm area.
The ground is one of the most i'm
portant portions of the radio circuit.
Crystal detectors operate as long
as the detector is in good condition.
Excessive resin from solder can be
removed with alcohol and soft cloth.
Howling of a set may be due to
filament too high, over-regeneration,
improper wiring, or instruments
crowded.
A condenser connected in series
with an aerial will reduce the wave
length of the aerial. One connected
in parallel villa raise the wave length.

In the line of detecting devices he
improved an instrument first thought

Regeneration Is one of the most
wonderful things of radio, without
which the entire broadcasting situa-
ton would not have reached its pres
ent day perfection. But, the regenera-
tive receiver, as such, has almost be-
come extinct because of its radiating
qualities which spoil general recep-
ton for miles around, and because it
is not selective enough to tune through
number of nearby broadcasting sta
lions.
Regeneration is great help to any
radio set. When used in a sharp tun-
Ing receiver 1t will add sufficient
volume to equal a nonregenerative set,
using greater number of tubes. The
circuit shown here was devised by
engineers of the All-American radio
corporation to produce a three-tube
set, employing regeneration and radio
frequency application, combined.
The radio frequency makes it dis
lance getter and prevents radiation,
and the regeneration produces the
volume and sensitiveness required to
operate satisfactorily under 1926 con-
ditionS.
Make Sharper Tuning Set.
Toroidal coils make this combina-
ton possible, by eliminating interstage
coupling. The magnetic field of the
transformers Is confined in the coils.
The toroid coils also prevent the pick
up of local stations by the coils them
selves and make a much sharper tun-
Ing set. The new All-American
shielded straight line frequency con-
densers are recommended to prevent
crowding of the stations on the lower
waves.

is provided, and If this be constructed

The Parts Needed.
Few parts are needed, and the set
can be assembled with a by 10 or
21-inch panel and cabinet, without
crowding. Two controls, an ideal
system of tuning a radio set, are
used. To construct the receiver. you
will need the following list of parts:
One toroid coupler, type tt CID.
One toroid coil, type T2 (L2).
One universal coupler, type R 40
(L3).
Two straight line frequency con-
densers, type C35 (C1 and y.
One variable condenser, approx
mately 00015 mid. capacity (C3).
One audio transformer, type R12

One large fixed condenser, O.5 to

Three sockets.
One grid leak.
One 00025 MID grid condenser.
One 6 ohm rheostat.
Binding posts, wire, screws, etc.
The UV199 or C299 type of tubes
may be used if the rheostat is 10 to Is
ohms. One rheostat controls the three
tubes and it is not advantageous to
provide separate rheostat for each
tube. The 45-volt "B'' battery binding
post is for the detector tube, which
should not be of the regular UV2OO
or C300 type, unless the voltage Is
lowered to 221s volts.
