POWER MATCHING OFTEN
CAUSES RADIO TROUBLE
Current Should Compare with Con-
ditions of Night to Get
Best Results.

Much trouble with radio can be
traced to failure to make the power
of the set match the night it is to
be used. Power should be adjusted
to compensate for ether conditions,
and unless this is done there is an
excess of reception one night and
too little the next. An excess is usu-
ally as bad as n shortage. for when

even on one that is classed as very
good from the standpoint of clarity
and wave strength. the controls of
the "B" eliminator should be turned
so as to lower the plate voltage. Less
filament current also should be used.
This latter adjustment is made by
the rheostat controls on the panel of
the set itself. Thus, by cutting the
range of the set temporarily, greater
quality is obtained on stations avail.

same as enjoying greater selectivity.
