There are many instances where substitutions and changes may be made, but there ure other instances where the changing of connections and substitutions of other parts will lead to endless trouble.

Mention All Changes. It you write in about having trouble | do not forget to mention any change you have made in the circult or parts called for in the plans. If the plans called for a 0.00035 mfd. condenser, best results will be obtained by using that size of condenser. A smaller capacity condenser will not cover the range if the cofls called for are used and a larger size will not | give us good qualities, although it will not impair the wave-length range of the recefver.
