10 THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C. FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1922, | BY LAWRENCE M. COOKADAY. A variometer, which consists of two coils connected in series, is often used for tuning a circuit. One coll is sta- tionary and is called the “stator”; the other coil rotates inside it and is called the “rotor.” In using this de- vVice to tune a circuit, when the coils are rotated so that the electromag- netic ficlds of the two coils are op- sing, the two fields acting against h other do not allowsany electro- magnetic energy to be stored up, or in other words their mutual induction 1s theoretically zero. A coil of this type set in this posi- tion would respond to very low wave | lengths. that If the rotor be turned so its field be additive with the; two fields will act with to store up electromag- vy and the mutual induc- at a maximum. In this : variometer will respond a high wave length. rotating the rotor from sition to the last mention- the variometer can be tuning and will pass through varions w lengths that it is designed to listen-in on. The variometer is used for tuning- in reeciving sets. and the illustration shows two variometers used to tune BY RADIO TODAY Complete Programs of Radio Broadcasting Stations.

A 7,000-MILE RADIO. Philippine Station Transmits to Pacific Coast. The naval radio station at Cavite, P. I, now transmits directly to our Pa- cific coast by means of a newly in- stalled “barrage” receiver at San: Francisco, thus covering a distance of about 7,000 miles without relaying. Previously transpacific messages east- ward were relayed from Cavite via | Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. The new re- | ceiver, designed by the radjo research | section of the Navy, Is expected to ! save approximately $20,000 a year in coal and power bills at' Pearl Harbor | as well as considerable time, and will | also aid in clearing Pacific traffic. The perfection of the “barrage” receiver thus makes for far greater efficiency in Pacific radio circuits. $1,000,000 REWARD URGED Bill Would Enrich Discoverer of Cure for Tuberculosis. _Uncle Sam is asked to offer a mil- lion dollars reward for a successful treatment of tuberculosis, cancer, pa- ralysis, epilepsy or dementia praeco: Representative Sproul of Illinois has introduced a bill providing that such reward should be paid in ten annual installments.
