All Rights Reserved. Repreductien Prehibited. The Prevention and Elimination of Radio Treubles. Part IV. One of the most common sources of trouble due to faulty apparatus is the construction of a poor aerial system. Regardless of all that has been sald on the subject some fans will insist upon erecting poor aerial systems and then blame the set for poor results. To get results the aerial should be as high as possible above the roof | and preferably should be erected over a clear spa Skylights, tin roofs, trees and other such objects in the vicinity of an aerial are detrimental to high efficiency. Of course, you will be able to receive to some extent, but your results will not be as good as they ought to be or could be if a lit- tle more attention were paid to this item. Do not be in such a hurry to try out your set that you slight this important part of your receiving equipment, with the idea that you will put up a better one when you have more time. It's human nature not to want to do the same thing twice, and the chances are that the first aerial you put up will be your last one. An aerial installation does not cost very much and it will pay you to buy the best of everything. Stranded wire is good, but if you twist it at any point and break some of the strands vou will find that results would have been better if you had used solid cop- per wire. Most aerial wire comes in 100-foot lengths, and it is usually necessary to connect two such lengths together to get the required length for a good aerial and lead-in. There is a right and a wrong way of con- necting the ends of two wires of this type together. The right way is to twist the wires together in what is known as a Western Union splice and solder the connection. The wrong way is to twist them together any You'll Enjoy the Ware ‘With a Ware Neturodyne Type T in your home, you not only hear but THOROUGHLY ENJOY the wonderful programs that are broadcast from nearby and distant stations.

M deep. prineiple old way and leave the joint umsol- dered. Proper Way to Splice. The proper way of making the ‘Western Unlon splice is shown below., Two wires AB and CD are crossed as shown in Fig. 1. The B end of the wire AB is then wrapped around the D section of wire CD as shown in Fig. The same process is used with the C end of wire CD, in this case the C end being wrapped around the A sec- | tion of wire AB to form the joint, shown in Fig. 3. The joint can’ then be heated, touched with flux and sol- der can then be run into the joint, soldering the two wires together. This method of making the joint in- sures a strong mechanical joint and a perfect electrical contact. In constructing the aerial, care must be taken to see that the aerial or lead-in is held away from all sur- rounding objects such as trees, sky- lights, chimneys, eaves and walls, both outside and inside. f The wires should not be run for any considerable distance through! | | l | ry cabivet, 105 in. high. 14 in. wide, 133 in ree dry cell tabes, devised and used xed, on & mew uly by Ware, giving the equivalent of a four-tube _circuit.

The sct should be located as near the point of en- trance of the lead-in wire as possible 80 as to cut down the length of the lead-in to the minimum, and prevent losses. The part of the lead-in that is inside the house should be well insulated so as to eliminate any grounding of the lead-in through contact with the parts of the build- ing with which it comes In contact. Cats Down Sigmal Strengik. While most of the lightning ar- resters are thoroughly Inspected, you will find one occasionally in which the aerial and ground terminals or electrodes are touching, thus ground- ing the aerial and cutting down the signal strength considerably and at times making reception impossible. It is best to try the set first with- out the lightning arrester nnected and then to make sure that the sig- nal strength is not cut down when the arrester is connected into the clrcuit. It is as important to sce that the ground wire makes a good contact with some ground conncctibn as it is to make surc that the agrial is well in:ulated from anything c nected with the ground. The best method is,to use a good ground clamp, fastened on a water pipo and soldered to the pipe with the ground lead from the set sol- dered with the ground clamp. In many cases it is very difficult to solder to a pipo, especially one in which water is present, as the heat applied is carried away very quickly. In such cases it is best to clean the pipe thoroughly with file, wrap some tinfoil around the | RADIO’S BEST OFFERINGS TONIGHT.
