In an effort to ald the fans, Lieut, Comdr. T. A. M. Craven of the Navy Radio En. gineering Bureau, asked the Naval Research Laboratory engineers to sketch out and describe a simple crystal receiver which could tune out some stations and be easily and {cheaplv made. According to Comdr. Craven, a set assembled as directed, successfully operates in Washington where con- siderable complrint has heen made that NAA on 43, metere interferes with WCAP and WRC operating on 469 meters. The new set can be turned to either wave length without notice.

The receiver is of the so-called “loose-coupler” type, which has heen known to the radio art.for over 10 years, biit whiéh is not manufactured in large quantities for the “broadcast trude’’ hecause of the strong competi-) tion in the production of “single ¢ cuit” and less selective types of crys. tel receivers. It is designed to use single-wire antennae, between 50 and 150 feet long. The primary coil consists of 90 turns of No. 24 B. and S. gauge cov- | ered conger wire, wound an a tube 4 inches lemg: 3 inches outside diameter and 2% Inches inside. In winding CIRCUIT DIAGRAM OF A SLLECTIVE CRYSTAL RECEVER interference from the other. Being a two.circuit hook-up, it is more selective than the so-cglled single eircuit receivers in general use. Reception Is Excellent. “No dificulty should be experienced in tuning out stations of the same power separated by 35 meters in the broadcast band, whereas difficulty is reported with the usual crystal set in separating stations even 100 meters apart,” Comdr. Craven says. This receiver, which is of course neither new nor unique, is much less affected by interference from electric light and power lines, street cars, and radio telegraph signals, he explains. It gives excellent quality in local station able reception and is even capable of get- ting some outside stations during g00d Winter reception weather. Such recelvers should be of service to fans lving' In_ congested districts like Chicago, New York, and other big cities. This receiver can be constructed with inexpensive parts purchased at local radio retail stores for only $3.51, exclusive of headphones and antennae. Headphones vary in price from about $2 to $10, depending on the quality de- sired. A reasonably satisfactory pair 442 | can be purchased for about $2.75. The necessary parts of the receiver RADIO FANS DELUGE CAPITOL WITH MAIL Broadoast Appeal im Connection With Copyright Bills Bears Great Fruit. Radio “fan mail” received by mem- bers of the House and Senate com- mittees considering the radio and copyright bills, following two Nation- wide appeals broadcast by the Na- tional Association of Broadcasters through the American Telephone and Telegraph Co. chain of stations, is the greatest amount of correspondence ever received in support of any legis- lation, according to reports at the Capitol. Practically every member of the committees was swamped with communications from listeners in all parts of the country. The tactics of the broadcasters in making the ap- peal have been severely criticized by Representative Sol Bloom, who has challenged Paul B. Klugh, general secretary of the Broadcasters’ Asso- clation, to a radio debate on the merits of the copyright bill for which the listeners are asking congressional indorsement. RICKARD'S STATION GETS U. S. APPROVAL Promoter Preparing Elaborate Series of Summer Programs From Madison Square Garden. Tex Rickard, internationally famous sports promoter and owner of New York’s new Madison Square Garden, has been told by the Government to go ahead with his broadcasting, it was announced today. After dickering with the Depart- ment of Commerce for several weeks for permission to operate a station bought - from the Radio Engineering Corporation on top of his new Garden, Rickard received a temporary permit to broadcast on what will be Manhat- tan's second lowest wave length, 212.6 meters. Test broadcasts transmittéd under the new Rickard call letters, WMSG, on the 212.6 meter wave length were found not to cause any serious inter- ference with signals from other near- by stations in New York. The pro- grams were reported also to be re. ceivahle at distances up to 1,000 miles, Rickard is understood to be pre- paring an elaborate series of programs for this Summer. The station former- ly was known as WWGL. 1In the future, as in the past, it will operate with 500 watts of power, although it is proposed to increase this output in the near future.

The leads from the first 10 taps go to the frst 10-point switch, and ths renalning 10 leads to the second switch. The two tap switches should be placed ap. proximately 3 inches apart on the panel. The secondary cofl consists of 60 turns of No. 24 B. & S. gauge DCC copper wire, wound on a tube 3 inches Jlong and of 2% inches outside diameter, so it will slide into the first tube. Variable Condenser Used. ‘The condenser specified is a vari able oneé, of the straight-line fre- quency type, having a capacity of .0005 micro farads and consisting of 21 plates. ‘Tuning of the primary circuit s ac- complished by varying the two 10- point switches. One of these switches varies one end of the coil 10 turns at a time, while the other switch varies the other end of the coll a single turn at a time. The coupling between the primary and secondary circuits is accomplished by sliding the secondary coil toward or away from the primary. Coupling adjustments have a very important effect on the operation of the re. celver, Tuning of the secondary circuit is accomplished by turning the knob of the “straight-lfne frequency” variable condenser. The crystal with the “cat’s whisker™ point is mounted on a panel near the secondary tuning dial. where it is | easily accessible for adjustment. The proper adjustment of the crystal is most important, as the fintensity of the received signal may be reduced to almost nothing if the crystal is in poor adjustment. BEST TYPE APPARATUS.

This new combi- nation of yeast vit- amines with vege- table iron renews the action of slug- gish blood cells, drives out danger- ous body poisons, increases energy and endurance and supplies the system with the vitamines that build. up weight. For years yeast has been known as a . rich’ . vitamine: food but not until we perfected “iron- ized. yeast"—which comes in concen- trated tablet form, Wwas it possible ‘to take yeast and iron i the. right pro- portions to build up weight. Végetable “Iron” when combined with yeast is -quite easy to digest, threrefore better for the system. And “yeast” when ironized, becomes just twice as beneficial as ordinary fresh or cake yeast. Ironized Yeast tablets are com- posed of concentrated food elements, therefore, they are pleasant to take and free from drug-like effects. It makes no difference how old you are —or how young you are—how long you. have been under-weight—or how much under-weight you are, “ironized yeast” tablets are positively guaranteed to pick you right up, and add ,from .Tive .te twenty pounds of good firm flesh in three weeks’ time. -| H they fail get your money back.
