THE - EVENING 34.—Aerials for Sending. EXPERT ADVICE ON RADIO ui RADIO RALF— BY A. HYATT VERRILL, Expert on Radio Technology. After the beginner has made or pur- fhased a receiving set and has learned 1o read the dot and dash messages his next ambition will be to send or transmit. There is a certain satis- faction in being able to add your #ignals or your voice to the many traveling through the ether and to be alle to call up some friend, or #ven some stranger, far away and the antenna itself. Although a counterpoise thus placed still very good results are one erected a few feet belcw the aerial or even at one side counterpoise s obtained by ing Switch Neceasary. the counterpoise, which is connected te the -ground terminal of your set, mast be insulated from bulldings and otier obstruction: ner as your aerial lead-in. ~ You must so that both may be the Mad-in from in the same man- ns with a light- BY RADIO TODAY falk to him as readily as though he grounded. were in the same room. Remember not to carry on any conversation which is private or which you do not want others to hear, for there is no privacy in the air and anyone and evervone within range can hear what You are saying. In order to install mnd use a sending s€T you must ‘ture a government lice and mus be prepared to pass an examination in order to get it. Moreover. you must be sure and make a set whichy will comply with the government regulations as to wave lengths. When vou decide that you must have 4 zending set., the first thing to con- struct is an aerial endin Although a single wir every purpose for recelving and is or better than a multiple wire an- and a new aerial must be arrangec for the purpose.

The best way to erect such an aerial as those shown | is to attach the wires and spreaders | by means of insulators, attach the lead-in at the proper place and tlen hoist the entire affair to its posi- tion, securing it by strong wires or ire ropes. Use insulators be- tween the spreaders and the guys as shown. The lead-in is then carried 10 the set as usual, but a lightning switch must be installed with a proper ground for a sending set.

This is T e resembling an aerial, which, it d under or near the aerial, elimi- nates the necessity of a ground to the set. Very little is really known in ard to the counterpoise. In a way it resembles a condenser, with the difference that whereas a con- denser radiates very little energy the counterpoise radiates a great deal. In using radio on airplanes the metal parts of the fuselage or a spe- clal wire is used as a counterpoise, and radio sets on motor cars utilize the frama of the car for a counter- oise. In receiving a counterpoise s of littla advantage and is not worth the trouble of installation, but for sending it is a distinct advantage. The best form of counterpoise is the fan-shaped affair illustrated in Fig-, ure This should by preference be stretched below the aerial and as far from it as possible. The ideal posi- tion is near the ground and about three feet from it. but as a counter- poise at that height is always more or less in the way, it is better to ralse it about seven feet above the ground, so as to clear the heads of anyone walking under It. The wires should be attached to stout stakes by means of insulators as shown, for it is just as important to insulate the Try This Amazingly imple Easy Way Thin run-down folks who have been wondering why they remain so skinny and lacking in energy even though they eat specially prepared zgnd‘l and underlto the discomforts rigorous exercises should find in MASTIN'S Vitamon Tablets just ‘what their bodies need to build firm flesh and youthful “pep.” Eat what ou like but be sure to take 2 of ASTIN'S Vitamon Tablets with each meal to supply the muscle, bone flesh - building elements your en creases, your skin clears and your whole body becomes tingling with health and energy.
