Current Consumption.
For detection only, or where head-
phones are to be used, it is fo'o'lish
to use tubes requiring large current

is averilalele, because the battery is
also used for some purpose outer

UV200 is more sensitive than some
other type, but the difference is not
worth the use of a special storage

multi -tube sets, the .AIA types are
satisfactory and can be worked as
amplifier or detector, but after more
than two tubes, dry cell operation is
not economical, as batteries run down
too fast. Two 201A tubes can be
operated on eight dry cells, in parallel

such tubes make too large a current

You have purchased your radio
set or made it. Everything seems
properly connected. What tubes are
you going to use ?
Yes, it makes a difference. If the
set is one designed for storage
battery operation, and you change to
dry -cell type tubes, the combination
may work fairly well, but the chances
are that the balance of the circuit
will be impaired. Selecting tubes. is
much the same as choosing men for
certain work The little bright -
minded fellow is just the man, for,
say, the drafting room, but the husky
big fellow is wanted out on the
paving job, Makes and trade names,
types and ratings are confusing.
Here is the answer on popular .types:
Four Kinds of Tubes Considered.
Firstly, there are tubes using, tung-
sten filaments. They Light brightly,
like an ordinary incandescent lamp.
The old .UV201 and the present
UV200 are examples. Secondly, to
get more efficient electron emission
there are the treated tungsten fila-
ment tubes, 'based on the old 'Hudson
tantulum addition. Mostly, thorium is
used. Thoriated filaments are made
by combining a little thorium with
the tungsten and driving it to the
surface by heat treatment. A thori-
ated filament uses 'less current but
gives more electron emission Hence,
a thoriated filament will be operated
at a heat ranging from bright•cherr
red, in tubes like UV201A, to du
white, as in UV199 tubes. Such
tubes do not have to be heated to
bright white, like, tungsten filament
tubes, and if overheated lase sensitivi-
ty :or burn out, and really emit less
electrons after losing the thorium
coat, A third class of tubes employs
a filament of platinum, usually plati-
num ribbon coated with a mixture of
oxides, as barium oxide; -calcium
oxide, ete. The 'oxide coating is also
toincrease evaporation of electrons,
andsuch filaments are Found in West-

stage, as 'dry cell operation is their
permissible. The UV199 tube works
well as it second stage amplifier with
use of high impedance type amplify-
ing 'transformer, such its 6 -tool :ratio,.
using a C battery,
Best Reflex' Tubes.
For renes tubes the 1.1V199 works
well as a low reflex, that is, one
where only one tube is reflexed or a
set in which the first audio and .first
or possibly second radio stage pass
through the 199 tube. • The UV201A
type will not ordinarily overload on
a high reflex stage or one where a
second audio stage• and a first or
second radio stage pass through the
tube provided that there: is a control
against overflow of radix, input from
nearby stations, or automatic stabil-
izer, as in Edelman circuit. The
Western Electric power amplifier tube
is good at audio frequencies, but not
so su'itab'le for first stage radio ampli-
fication, and is little used iu reflex
sets. The DV2 and '15'V3, especially
the DV2, are good reflex tubes.
Myers' tubes work better in separate
radio and audio functions than com-
bined, though they perforin well as
low reflex stage tubes.
WD11 or WD12 tubes can evork in
radio or audio frequency or reflex'
circuits but usually will not,perform
aswell as the• UV201A. tube,. as re-
gards volume. They are good for a
low reflex stage. There is little need
to use UV201A tubes for a Tow radio
or low reflex stage, as -power handl-
ing ability is not a question in such
case. The larger capacity tubes can
be favored for the last stage or stages
of an amplifier where their capacity
can be utilized, as they will stand up
on larger plate potentials needed for
power volume results.
Fallacy of Many `Any -Tube” Sets.
Some so-called universal radio sets
are put out with universal rheostats
and claim that any tube can be used
equally well. The filament question is
only part of the story, as the thans-
former impedance ratios also need
adjustment to fit different types of
tubes, A 1.1NF199 tube requires higher'
imedance ratio than the UV20.1 tube
does, so a set designed for the latter,
while working on the little tubes,
loses much in volume that cannot
properly be credited against the
tube. Aside from filament current
requirements, different tubes vary in
amplifying factor, mutual conduct-
ance and impedance values. Even
tubes of the same make and type
vary, sometimes widely, but on the
whole average closely within a fairly
limited group range. Sometimes
changing tubes around in different
sockets will improve operation.
Tubes Die Before Burning Out.
Many tubes die or dry up before
burning out. The filament is slowly
evaporated and its resistance in-
creases while the electron flow de-
creases. Thoriatecl filaments can of-
ten be restored by heating (without
applying plate voltage) for twenty
minutes time, but the oxide -coated
types are near an end of useful life
when they start •to go. If everything
else is in good condition and batteries
replaced fresh, perhaps the lost vol-
ume from your set is due to employ-
ment of aged tubes.. They may still
be good for low stages, but cannot
deliver volume for high stages.
Tube Sockets Faulty.
kiauy tube troubles are caused by
faulty connection between the tube
lase and the socket terminals. If
the tubes rattle around loose in the
sockets, microphonnc contacts may be
made or even the grid or plate may
fail to contact. If the plate fails it
is easy to find, as no B batery current
can pass the open circuit An open
grid contact can be. Laid by applying
a negative battery terminal to the
grid, which should give a click sound
in the phone: if there is no . open
circuit.
Plate Current.
The drain on B batteries is noticed
mainly on sets using four or more
tabes. The C battery or inserted plate
impedance reduces plate current on
radio stages or amplifying stages.
Few loud speakers require more than
10 milliamperes current flow in the

to get good results with tubes requir-
ing high grid 'leak value is that the
wiring and mountings used are care-
lessly allowed ,to form a low grid
leak, putting the high leak out of
business. Presumably, a tube of
characteristics resembling 'UV200 will
soon be made with thoriated or
equivalent filament to afford "a de-
tector which works on dry cells as
well as the storage battery type now
does. The C12 is the same ars WD11
or WD12 as a detector, and is some-
what more sensitive if operated with
a little more than rated filament cur-
rent supply.
Best Amplifiers.
The tubes mentioned are distinctive
of types, and many near equivalents
are marketed by various (independent
companies, under so many names
that only a jobbers' trade paper could
give equal attention to. all. The De.
Forest tubes rate very good as ampli-
fiers. DV3 has an edge on the aver-
age UV199 and DV2 is a good all-
around radio or audio -frequency. tube:
For radio amplification, favor can
well be given to economical tubes as
UV199, DV3 Myers' dry cell type,
Western Electric peanut tube, and
some of the French and English
tubes. For radio amplification tubes
having .small grid to 'pla'te capacity
effect are desirable.' Myers' tube
rates high as a radio stage tube. The
UV199 is just about good enough to
get in this class, The UV201A types
work' well asradio amplifiers when
.proper circuits are used and practical-
ly any of the stabilizer circuits roper
ate well with the 201A tubes. In fact,
many sets are made and balanced to
fit the tube capacity of the 201A tube
tubes like UV199 and •larger tubes as
201A the plate current flow is less
with 'the small tube, especially in low
stages. To get audio volume it is
necessary to boost the plate voltage,
'but the small tubes then require use
of a C battery to limit plate current
flow against overloading. If too
much plate current is put on a tube,
without grid potential • control, the
plate can be heatedup t`o she melting
point of supporting elements.
Regeneration and Super -Heterodyne
Tubes.
For regeneration tubes good as

oscillators for (Super -Heterodyne sets,
UV201A types usually work well, and

works in an 'ordinary radio-frequency
set is able to work .in the amplifying
stages of a Super -Heterodyne set.
The sets of the Neutrodyne type
usually require UV201A tube and IN-
N() detector tube, though a UV201A
tube, can be substituted for the de-
tector. Ian changing to 199 tubes, the

erly require to be reduced in allu,

A Gift That is a Compliment,
In the gift you receive you can
sometimes see yourself as others seee
you, and: the view is not always flat
tring. It may be a jazz record, or a
gaudy tie, or a book that you would
;late to have found on you if an auto
bumper; you into dreamland. And
you can't really blame the giver,.
Knotting you well he concludes that
you crave that sort of thing. On the
other hand his gift may convey a
subtle compliment—a gift of The
Companion for instance. It is a trib-
ute to your good taste, to a. certain
idealism he has perceived in your
make-up, to the impression you give
that life is real and earnest and not
merely a 'game of skittles, You may
be sure that anybody who thinks
slightingly of The Companion as 'a
gift is himself making life a•,game of
skittles—and very little else.
