We Sell for Less--Let Us Prove It FIG. | Good and Bad Untuned Primaries In the trend toward simplicity of control it has become commen prac- tice on most broadcast receivers to use an uantuned primary of 10 or 15 turns, either wound right over the secondary tuning coil, or wound on a rotor which may be closely or loos- ely coupled to the secondary. To- day we will outline the advantages and disadvantages of the practice. The theory of the untuned prim- ary is that it will respond equally well to all signals within range of the tuner. Now to accomplish this, we must have a coil of such propor- tions that the fundamental wave- length of the enhtire antenna sys- tem, including antenna, lead-in, coil and ground, is either above or below the tuning range of the receiver. Here is the reason: Suppose we wound an '"'untuned' primary of 15 turns, but found that when conmect- ed to the antenna the antenna sys- tem had a fundamental wavelength of 460 meters. Now, our set ob- viously will give stronger signals on 460 meters than it will on other waves, and this is not usually desir- able. On the other hand, if we wound on eight turns, and found that with a slightly shorter antenna the fundamental was 210 meters, it would not make much difference whether we turned in a signal of 360, or 460 or §60--the response would be about the same for all of them. Another way of obtaining the de- sired effect would be to make a very large antenna coil--say 200 turns-- 80 that the fundamental was about = - FIG. 2 1000 meters, well above any wave we are likely to encounter in broad- cast work. The number of turns in the un- turned primary---particularly if the primary is wound right over the secondary---has another effect also; ft determines whether the secondary is "closely" or '!loosely" coupled to the antenna. The fewer the num- ber of turns, the looser the coupling; | the greater the number of antenna | turns, the closer the coupling. Close i coupling will not give selectivity, but | if we use too few turns the coup- | ling may be so loose that the sig- | nal strength will be seriously im- paired. Therefore, if you found that eight turne of untuned primary in| connection with your antenna gave | a fundamental of |300 meters, it! would be bettter to leave the eight | turns in the primary and cut down | the length of the antenna to lower the fundamental, because if only one | or two turns of primary were used, the signal strength would fall off badly. With antennae up to 100 feet in length, an eight-turn primary will | be just about right, although 15 turns may be used with a slight gain in signal strength and slight loss in selectivity. Of course the best thing to do -- but the method which is the most trouble from an op rating stand- point--is to use a tuned primary, as shown in Fig. 2, provided with variable coupling. This means an extra control -- the antenna series condenser--but it is usually worth- while, none | RADIO BROADCASTING { The following is a list of radio stations and their broadcasting pro- grammes which may be heard local- ly on Thursday: : WLW (423) Cincinnati, O. 3 p.m.--Market reports. 4 p.m.--Piano solos by Adelaide Apfel, 10 p.m.--Three minutes with the United States civil service, 10.03 p.m.--'Business Man Turn- ed Gentleman," a radlario in one act, arranged by Fred Smith from Moliere"s comedy, WGY (880) Schenectady, N.Y. 1 p.m.--Music and household talk, "Summer Foods." 5 p.m.--Produce and stock mar- ket quotations; news bulletins; base- ball results. : 7.15 p.m.--Baseball scores. 7.30 p.m.--Programme of New York Philharmonic orchestra, \ WJZ (455) New York City. 1 p.m.--Nathan Abas, Hote!

LACE GOWN FOR FALL The lace costume will have a con- spicuous place in the fall and winter wardrobe. If not entirely made of Jace it will be combined with soft crepe or chiffon in a delicate color and dyed to match. This costume is carried out entirely in beige color. Very de banding is employed to form the bodice and the panels 'a the skirt and the undertunic. A novel feature is the girdle tied low over the hips, which is made of pleated chiffon. Frequently these lace gowns are made in the form of tunics so that they may be worn over The Last Day of Our Sensational 20% DISCOUNT SALE!
