S AT POSITION OF BATTERIES. Distance From Set Is of Little Importance. In installing a radio home it is often desirabl torago battery a distanc srder to make it unseen. This can be done without fear of affecting the actual resuits obtainable from the set. The length of wire be- tween the latter and the battery is of little importance; in fact, the wire acts as an additional aerial and often helps along the regular outside antenna.

One of the most tmportant things to bear in mind when building a radio receiver is to keep the parts well sep- arated. In a three-circuit receiver, which s made up of two variometers and a variocoupler, bad squealing and howl- ing sounds will be experienced if the parts are not well separated, and in order to prevent this the two vario- meters should be placed about twelve inches apart and at right angles to each other. D. C. CAMPBELL asks the call letters of “The Watch Tower, Staten Island, New York city.” He says he The variocouplsr in a three-circuit receivar may be placed midway be- tween fhe-two variomsters.
