DIG-PH: By Capt. Robert Scofield Wood. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. 3..W. Crestwood-—"'l have a detector and two steps of audio frequency ampl!- Mwation which I am operating with a six wolt, sixty ampere hour storage battery B want to connect this set to a power ‘amplifier this fall and would lie to now if it ts necessary to get another Storage_battery to light the lamps ‘of the power amplifier, Lf not, how shall | yk it up to the amplifier? How many Volts are needed for the plates of the pewer tubes?" Answer—The one storage battery will be sufficient to operate the filaments of both your receiving and Power amplifying sets. The connection will depend upon the type of set you Purchase, but it will only require two extra leads from the terminals of the Battery to the designated posts on the amplifying outfit. The plate voltage of the power tubes varies with the type of amplifier you get; some only require a plate potential of 120 volts and others Qs mugh as 350 yolts to get th proper amount of volume. 1.

T have tried everything to prevent this and have burned out three tubes by putting on more filament current but to no purpose. Then, again, although this only happens now and then, If T touch the tuning, vernier or variometer knobs or diais, I get a screeching that does not stop until T turn off the rheostats and retune the outfit.
