Designing of Receiver stc
 Function on Short Waves Underway
By c. E. BUTTERFIEID

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-The ever alert television fan is beginning to turn his attention toward receivers that will function on the ultra short waves.
 He has heard enough about the practicability of picture transmits sion on the channels around six meters to persuade him to try his hand at designing a receiver to function there.

Super-Regeneratiye Good

While very little data are availa- able as to the best type of circuit for the ultra waves, word has come that the super-regenerative has proven itself the most satisfactory
 Tuned radio frequency is almost out of the question, while the super hetrodyne is not nearly as relia- ble there as 1t is on the higher waves.
 Due to the increasing number of frequency bands available per me- ter as the wavelength goes down, it is necessary only to design the receiver to function on a meter or two to get good coverage.
 One method of tuning found practical uses the series layout, with the variable condenser acting not only as the wave adjuster, but as the feedback control as we'll.
 Experimenters have tackled the low wave super -regenerator with the idea that all is needed is the detector tube and the oscillator in addition to the audio amplifier.
 This ainplifier should be of the conventional resistance coupled type to obtain passage of the wide frequency bands required for tele- vision.
