In other words, fans are anxious to add to the large army of listeners by converting their friends to the fold and initiating them into the wonders and pleasures of radio. As often happens in other fields of | endeavor, however. some fans Ro about the job with such an over- abundance of energy and mistaken zeal that they accomplish just the op- | posite of what they actually set out to bring to pass. Bringing a friend up to your house to listen to a trick set that you have made is not going to make him think a lot about radio regardless of the fact that you may be using a very poor aerial or a poor ground or are handicapping your set in any of a dozen other ways. The average fellow who is just be- ginning to develop an interest in radio is not interested in the tricks which can be done with radio cir- cuits. What he wants to know is whether it gives him what he be- lieves is due him for a certain definite expenditure and will it do it con- sistently. He is not interested in distance re- ception, although, of course, it won't be long after he gets a set that he will develop that long distance dis- ease along with his other interests in trick circuits; ways and means of using one tube to perform the work of three; the use of bedsprings and wire wastebaskets as aerials and grounds, etc. Converting a Neophyte. If you really want to make a con- vert to the radio game and make a friend with whom you can swap tales of distance reception and volume and circuits, start him gradually. Make sure before you give the demonstration that everything is set for it. Be sure that your batteries are up to the mark; that good pro- grams are available that evening from the local stations; that weather conditions are fairly favorable and then find out just what kind of en- tertainment interests him most. Dwell at.length on the fact that the best in the line of programs is to be obtained from a local station tion will sound much better than that of the wonderful singer 500 miles away, whose notes are mixed with a lot of disturbing noises whose strength is considerably greater than the singer's notes. Antenna Instruction. Tell him that it is possible to get results with small indoor aerial, but that the best stunt is to get a good aerial which will make it unneces- sary for him to use a very expensive or complicated receiver. If he is mechanically inclined by all means advise him to try his hand at building the set, but be sure to select a simple one for him to start on S0 that when he gets through with it he will be able to get enough enter- tainment out of it to compensate him for his pains. If he is not much of a hand at mak- ing things you had better advise him to buy any one of the many good re- ceivers which are now on the mar- ket and thus save himself the trouble and chagrin and disgust which usual- ly follow in the wake of a poorly made receiver, and incidentally save us poor radio writers from a lot of the abuse which is hurled at us by fellows who construct sets that ought to work but don't, merely because the man who constructed it did not know the first thing about handling the simple tools required to make a good job.
