The Fundamentals of Radlo Grid Circuits. Part 1. The grid circuits of radio circuits are just as easy to understand and the prineiples of using them in drawing up circuits are just as simple to apply as are the fundamentals governing fila- ment and aerial circuits. The simplest type of grid circuit con- aists merely of a circuit going from the grid of a tube G to an inductance coil L and terminating at the fillarmst cir- cuit as shown in the diagram. As with all fundamental circuits, this merely shows the essential elements of a grid circuit, and does not take into account the little refinements that are necessary to make an efficient circuit. This fundamental circuit, however, is the one that is used in many radio frequency and audio frequency amplify- ing circuits. Oue end of the secondary coll of the ormer, in this case represented by L, is connected with the grid of the amplifier tube, while the other end of the secondary coil is connected with the filament circuit. In amplifier circuits it is important that the end which goes the filament circuit be connected d rectly with the negative filament lead in order to put the proper bias on the &rid of the tube, so &5 to bring the oper- ating point of the tube to its best point for operation as an amplifier rather than to permit it to act as a detector. Proper Connections Importa It also is important in making the connections when building a set to make the proper connections to the secondary winding of the transformer. In a transformer the primary coil is wound first on the core and the sec- ondary winding is wound over it. Since there are many turns of wire in ch winding, the turns are wound over each other in many layers, so that the be ginning of the primary winding is next to the core or the very inside of the winding, and the end of the brimary RADIO QUERIES Radto Editor: I wonder if any reader of your col- umn could tell me the call letters of a station in Charlotte, N. C., broad- casting at 10:15 o'clock last Friday night? 1 believe it has only three letters. It might interest some of your readers to know that, in one year with a one-tube set, I have picked up 129 stations, as many as 35 in one night. Among them I have listed as exceptional for distance on a one- tube set CYL, KGO, K> WKAQ and KOA, and two Cuban stations.— C. DAVIDSO} WBT is the only station lotte, N.

A plano solo followed. The an- nonncer spoke in a foreign language 1 could not understand. Can any of me what station this was? I thought at first it was PW) but don’t think it broadcaste on Thursdays.—BESSIE MERRICK. Radio Editor: Why are the plates of variable condensers made of aluminum or of some similar soft metak when plates of thin steel would be so much more rigid>—~WALTER B. S. Steel plates would be magnetic. The charges of electricity flowing continually in and out of the plates would set up eddy currents in them, and these eddy currents, in turn, would set up magnetic fields. This would mean a loss of electric energy. Only the non-magnetic metals, like copper or brass or aluminum can be used for condensers to be employed with high frequency currents. Ne. 770. Reproduction Prohibited. winding is farther from the core sev- eral layers outside of the beginning of the winding. The secondary winding is then wound directly above the primary winding, with the beginning of the secondary at about the same position as the end of the primary and the end of the sec- ondary winding many layers farther from the core. In many transformers the proper connections to plate, battery, grid and A battery fllament are indicated by letters at the terminals marked P, B, G and A, respectively. In others the letter ' is substituted for A. In many other transformers, how- ever, the terminals are merely indi- cated by the letter P, meaning pri- mary, placed between the primary winding terminals, and the letter meaning secondary, placed between the gecondary winding terminals. In such cases and even in cases whers there are no markings at all it is an easy matter to determine the connections to the respective plate and grid circuits by merely looking at the gvindings of the coils Primary Winding Smaller. The primary winding s always smaller than the secondary and in practically every case it is wound closer to the core, with the secondary winding wound over it. If the transformer winding is seal- ed In a shell it is very easy to de- termine which is the primary wind- ing and which the secondary. All that is necessary Is to connect a voltmeter and a 22%-volt battery in series with each winding. Put the ends of the circuit containing the battery and voltmeter on different terminals until you get a reading indicating that the test circult is connected to the ends of a winding and take the reading on the volt- meter. You will find that there has been a decided drop in voltage be- cause of the resistance of the wind- ing. Then test the other winding. The winding which gives the higher reading is the primary winding and that which gives the lower reading is the secondary. This, of course due to the fact that there are many more turns on the secondary wind- ing. therefore giving a greater re- sistance and causing a greater volt: age drop. When you can see the windings the outer end of the primary wind- ing should be connected with the plate of the preceding tube and the inner end of the primary winding should be connected with the B bat- tery side of the circuit. The outer snd of the secondary winding should be connected with the grid of the succeeding tube and the inner end with the A battery filament circuit Radio Editor Will you please publish the follow- ing in answer to the letter published yesterday from Mr. J. E. Gassin?

Brazilian Fans Unite. In Bahla, Brazil, the difficulties and slowness of present means of com- munication are so great that a broad- casting system for the outlying country is being considered, and about 100 members have formed a radio society. Permission to transmit has been applied for, but it is feared the prohibition of 1917 will prevent its early operation, unless the gov- ernment control is lifted. The only station In operation is the federal code station at Bahla, used for ma- rine communications. ‘WQJ.Heard Abroad.

BY MAJ. GEN. GEORGE 0. SQUIER. The problem of who shall pay the cost of broadcasting is one that we must consider very serious. It is ob- vious that broadcasting is a great public service. It must not be al- lowed to lapse. Furthermore, the most elementary considerations of public prudence require that this, the greatest of all channels to the Ameri- can ear, should be kept free from the machinations of eyil or self-seeking men. A sound broadcasting policy is one of the most important essentials, it seems to me, to the progress and successtul future of the United States. At present the whole industry lacks a sound financial basis. The purchaser of a receiving set may receive, with- out license, the finest sort of pro- grams. These programs cost money now. They will cost still more in the future. Somebody must pay for them The question s, who? The practical problem is to select somehow those individuals who should and will pay for broadcasting, with- out interfering, legally or otherwise, with the individuals who cannot af- ford to pay for the service and to whom, nevertheless, it is a matter of public policy that good radio serv- ice be provided Cites Definite Case. Let us consider a definite case, for example, the use of radio in a great hotel like the Pennsylvania Hotel in New York City. Each room in such a great hotel contains a number of outlets each one connected with the two wires of the electric power system. This electric power system is al- ready a device for broadcasting. It “broadcasts” electric light to each room of the great hotel. Furthermore, we have become accustomed to using this same system to broadcast me- chanical power. Motors, flat-iron and hair curlers are now “broadc over this system quite as succ as radio concerts are brc through the ether. Most of the guests of a hotel or an apartment house would be quite will- ing to pay a small monthly in order to receive this distributed ra- fee lio service Inside their building, just| as in now (Copyright, many apartment houses they pay for telephone service. 1925, Popular Radio, Inc.)
