WALL SWITCH PLAN AIDS
WITH CHARGER PROBLEM
Radio Operators Novel Scheme
Solves Battery Setting Without
Customary Wire Tracing.

When using a double pole throw
switch to cut out the set and cut in
the "A" battery charger. it is often
puzZlng to know which way the
switch is set. Usually it is a case of
tracing the wires for n few minutes
or of taking n chance on letting the
charger feed direct to the set.
All this has been definitely solved
by at least one radio operator. He
attached the switch to the wall and
in such a position that when the
switch is pointing upward it con-
meets the charger with the storage
battery, and when 1t is pointing
downward 1t connects the battery
with the set
Turning the switch to the upward
position means that everything is set
fer bringing the battery current up"
With the switch pointing downward,
the battery is being run down"

NEW PHOTOGRAPHIC AIDS
IN RADIO Improvement

A new photograph with electrically
recorded records is quite handy in any
household for the purpose of improv-
ing the tone of the radio set or for
selecting loudspeakers. Many people
use monograph attachments, and can
therefore make the test in such way
as TO eliminate any possible difference
in the acoustics which might be the
case should the phonograph ana the
Ioudspeaker be in different parts Of
the room during the test.
The new monographs with the new
records give greater perfection in tone
reproduction, and it should be the ann
of radio operators to try at all times
to match it with their radio sets. 1t
is known by all experienced radioists
that tone often drops into the second
rate class as a result of battery weak
ness, tube deterioration, interference,
worn equipment, faulty tuning and so
pne This- dropping off .dn~quaity DIS
