IF ELECTI'ON GOES TO HOUSE.
(Cushing’s Bulletin.)

\V’hen the house has to elect a
president. each state has but. one
vote. A majority vote of the mem-
bers from any state determines the
vote of that state. If no majority

vote is possible. that state loses its
vote. ‘
In the present Congress. five

states—New Hampshire. New Jersey.
Maryland. Montana, and Nebraska—
have representatives in the house.
who are equally divided between the
Democrats and Republicans. Those
states might easily not be able to cast
any vote.

The Democrats have undisputod
control of 20 state delegations. The
Republicans have undisputed con-
trol of 20 state delegations. Three
states—Minnesota. New York and
\Visconsin—are in doubt. Minneso-
ta and Wisconsin are doubtful be-
cause the radical element predomi-
nages and it is uncertain. New York
state is doubtful because the Demo-

 

pu blicans ‘ 21.
must get the vote of two of these
three doubtful states,

Low-Loss Condelisers Needed

 

 

 

a

I .

B
l’lb.)

Last week in and of our articles
we discussed the subject of low-loss
coils for use in receiving circuits.
However, a low-loss coil is at no par-
ticular value is used with a. poor tun
ing condenser. The combination of
ellicivnt coils and good condensers
will almost; invariably result in a de-
cidml gain in selectiVily and sigma
strength, assuming good grid con-
densers. leaks and sockets. but it is
simply a waste of time to make up
good coils if you are going to hook
them up with “junky” (:ondcnscrs.

in today‘s article we will discuss
good and bad qualities in variable
condensers as used in receiving sets

In choosing a variable condenser
there are two important matters to
consider: . ‘

l—The kind of insulation and the
amount used.

2—The placing of the insulation.

\\'e will take those matters up in
order: First, the kind of insulation.
An iron-clad rule which should be
followed regarding this specification

‘In Efficient Receiver 7

 

 

‘ El 62.... ,

is to keep away from all condensers
with “moulded mud" insulation. 1n-

sist. on a condenser insulated with
bakclitc or a similar material. or
quartz or porcelain. The last two
materials are rarely used. The resis-
tance of a condenser with "mud" in-
sulation may be from ten to twenty
times that of the same condenser
with god insulation. 43 ‘ to the a-
moun of material” we want as little
as possible consostcnt with good
practice.

Now as to the placing of the in-
sulation. The most desirable insula-
tion is that which is so placed that
the "leakage paths" are as long as
possible. By this we mean that all
rotor and stator‘connections should
be separated by as much insulation
as possible. An example of bad prac-
tice in this respect is the type of
condenser illustrated in Fig 2. To be
sure, we have a small amount of in-
sulation. but it is too small an a-

 

fin

desirable. That Is. the metal endplate
which forms part of the stator, is se
parated from the rotor shaft by only
an eight or quarter of an inch of in-
sulation. In addition, this type of
condenser is usually 'made with a
cheap fiber insulating bushing.
which is not even good insulation.
Result: A very high resistance con—
denser.

The condenser in Fig. 1. While not
necessarily the best, is better than
that of Fig. 2 because the leakage
paths are longer. The rotor cone‘c-

 

tion "A" is separated from the stator.

connections “B" by more than an
inch of insulating material. compar~
ed to the-eight-inch of condenser
No. 2. It is assumed that the con-
denser in Fig. 1 uses good insulation
0 course.=

During the last few months sever-
al manufacturers have developed
types of low-loss condensers that use
very little insulating material—~11 de-
sirable feature—but have neverthe-

less managed to keep the leakage
paths fairly long.
Another matter. which relates

more to desirably than efficiency. is
the question of the size of condenser
to be used. A broadcast listener will
ask whether he should use a “43-
plate"‘or a "23-plalc" or a "13.
plate” instrument. It is best prac-
tice to use the smallest condenser
possible. If a. “13 plate" condenser
will cover the wave length range you
desire, do not. use a larger size. The
tuning will be much less critical with
the small. condenser. because where
a “1': plate" will take nearly 4 de-
grees of scale to give a certain
change in capacity. a "43-1313 (2" will
only take one degree of scale for the
some change. This means that on
the larger condenser our wave-
lengths will bc crowded together in
a. few degrees of dial. while xvith the
small instrument, the same band will
be spread out over tlire or four times
the number of dial degrees.

Minute Current
Leaks Serious

By CARLTON E. BLTLER.
Radio Engineer.

Besides the fundamental differ-
ence between radio and house light-
ing currents in regard to frequency.
the number of times the current re-
verses direction cvery second. there
is also a. great difference in regard
to the amaunt of current handled
by each class;

In commercial work we measure
current in terms of amperes, power
in watts and kilowatts. The average
home is fused with ten, or fifteen-
ampcre fuses. The loss. therefore.
of a few thousandths of an ampere
of current due to leakage through
inculating material or a high rcsis-_
tance need not be considered seri-
one.

In radio reception we are dealing
with very minute quantities of cur-
rent. Extremely strong signals can
be measured only by means of del-
icate instruments. while weak sig-
nals must be'mlucd in millionths
of an ampere.

 

A loss that would not be consid-
ered in ordinary electrical work will
became quite serious when we deal
with small adio currents. A faulty
insulator or leaky panel may reduce
the volume from your receiver by a.
half while the same material could
be used for ordinary electrical in-
sulation and be considered very
satisfactory.

This is the reason why some of
the mategials that are used com-
monly in electrical work for insul-
ators and for panels are wholly un-
suited for radio work. Yet this class
of material is used to some extent
by persons who are unaware of the

high insulation: requirements for
radio use and associate the two
kinds of current as one and the

same thing. . -
Use only the very best of insula-

tion throughout in your radio re-

ceiver. Avoid the use of fibre. imi-
