Some of the disadvantages of the FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY o0ld Navy type base and sockets were the bulky size and expensive con- ! struction required in making the ockets Xhe small size f the| prongs Wi the difficulty of getting contact with the bavonet + good iwist be given to the tube, was an additional disadvantage. Tube Developments. Since the new tube operated on a fllament current source of 1.1 volts, | it was considered desirable to elimi- nate the possibility of burning out the filament through its insertion in - set fitted with sockets for the stor- #ge battery tubes. It was therefore decided to use a special tube base requiring a special socket on this ube. To provide etween tube prongs and pe socket, which required that a better contact |adapters socket | which LCATERRA Noted Authority on Radio. Reproduction Prohibited springs, the prongs of the tube were made longer and the socke as the push type socket wa pro- vided. No twist of the tube was re- quired to fasten the tube in its rocket. The tension of the socket springs on the prongs provided the necessary holding power. To elimi- nate the possibility of inserting the tube in the wrong way, one of the filament prongs and its associated hole in the socket are made larger than the rest. Later the demand from fans who had sets designed for operation with T'V-200, C-300, UV-201 and C-301 tubes, but wanted to substitute the dry cell tubes of WD-11 and C-11 types, caused to appear on the market permitted the use of these known | tubes in the older sets without the necess for changing sockets and wiring. Later the tube companies rec- ognized the demand for the new tube | with a standard Navy type base by | producing the WD-12 and C-12 tubes, | baving the same electrical character- | isties as the WD-11 and C-11, but hav- {ing a standard Navy type base in place of the special base. The demand for a tube of even Jower mption without sacri ifice of operating qualities led to the {development o fthe UV-199 and C-299 tubes. These tubes were especially de- signed for use in very compact se and are smaller than any other previ- ous models. The socket required is also very small. The prongs are very short and contact between tube prongs and socket springs is made in the same way as with the standard Navy !type socket with contact on end of jprong. The bayohet method of hold- {ing the tube In place and the prongs lin contact with the spri the | same as that used in the Navy type | base. | A bottom view of the base is shown in th> diagram. You will notice that the grid terminal. instead of being {adjacent to the plate terminal, as in | the case of the standard Navy type | base, is placed diagonally opposite, so as to increase the distance between the terminals and thus reduce the grid to plate capacity of the electrodes. The bayonet pin is between the plate and one of the filament terminals and is to the left of the plate terminal when looking at the bottom of the tube. The plate, grid and filament ter- e minals of the tube can be determined by remembering the location of the terminals with respect to the bayonet pin as shown In the dlagram, ter H.

With ears ringing, eyes smarting and fingers twitching, radio fans of the Capital were beginning to wonder today whether there is, after all, a {EEurope and a South Amerlca, and, it there is, whether their broadcasting ions will ever be as easy to fune those of San Franclsco and Los les. With three of the flve European nights of International Radio week gone and still no easily recognizable signals received from abroad, list ing for foreign announcements W losing some of its lure. The third night of the test week was the least favored so far by weath- er conditions. And from a noticeable decline in the number of re-radiating sets on the air during the test hour, it could be presumed that the poor a mospherics had driven many listeners to other pursuits or to bed Reception Decidedly Poor. | Except for stations 1o the south of | the District of Columbia, reception | was decidedly poor.
