The Trouble Shooter Says:

If any Of those who call on me for
service were to see me trying TO drive
to their homes with my automobile
in reverse gear. they would think me
due for the padded cell. 1t Is almost
unthinkable that / would do such Il
thing, and yet IL l did 1t would be no
more absurd than some OF the things
which | note them doing with their
radio sets.
When they are trying to find trou-
bile they go about it backwards. That
is, they start with the accessories
and work back and more or less up
through the set to the various cir
cults until they come to the aerial.
The proper place, Of course, Is to
start with the aerial and work toward
the ground, taking in. the accessories
en- route. The trouble with starting
backwards is that any radio set is 80
designed that whatever comes in over
the antenna by way Of distortion, in.
reference, noise and various other
troubles is amplified throughout the
whole outfit You've got to start at
the bottom Of it, and in his case the
bottom is the top.
Then there is another angle to 1t.
Suppose, for instance. the radioist Is
irving to find out some trouble in the
"B" eliminator. Suppose also that
there Is no trouble there and that
in tinkering with the instrument he
actually puts some trouble into it.
Let us say that he applies too much
potential to the plate circuit. Let us
say that he tampers with the rheo'
stat adjustment on the detector lead.
Instead of finding out the trouble, he
is putting trouble into the set and
making it just that much more diff
cult to discover what's wrong.

Frequent announcements, it is
held by the commission, arc not
only of assistance TO the listener,
particularly one at a distance, but
are essential to permit Federal
radio supervisors to keep check on
stations to see that they adhere
strictly to their assigned frequen-

DID YOU KNOW THAT:

1t is not possible to determine the
number of stages of amplification in
a set by counting the number of con-
densers and the number of transform
ers between the audio frequency
stages? There are, in radio, what
are known as ''untuned stages. :"
These require no variable condensers
for control.
The efficiency OF an aerial that is
plugged into a floor socket depends
to a large extent upon the nature of
the wiring Of the building? An aerial
merely is an electrical pickup device
and, obviously. IL the wiring through
the house is run through metal pipes
there will be an undesirable shielding
effect. This explains why some per-
sons who have tried these condenser
plugs have found them ineffective,
while others have been quite enthusi-
astic over the results obtained.
