Then the street parade will be worth coming miles to see. bands, calliopes, open dens, beautiful ladies and horses, adding grace and beauty to the occasion. OOUNT ON MLUNET com . Th« Tun«r. HOW AMATEUR CAN BUILD A RECEIVER Instructions for Setting Up the Antenna and for Assembling the Tuner. In order to pick up sufficient energy with the simple radio receiving set it is necessary to connect one termi­ nal to an antenna consisting of one or more wires suspended In the air and insulated from all grounded material and the other terminal to a ground, usually the water supply pipe. The height of an antenna used with a small receiver should not be less than 80 feet. As the received energy va­ ries directly as the height of an anten­ na, the higher the antenna tbe louder will be the signals or voice produced. The length of an antenna for short wave reception should not be less than 50 feet nor should it be longer than 200 feet. The minimum wave length to which a simple receiver can be adjusted for electrical resonance will be above that used by amateurs if the receiver be connected to an an­ tenna 200 feet or more in length. ▲ simple radiophone receiver cap­ able of picking up radiophone sta­ tions similar to KDKA at East Pitts­ burgh, can he assembled by a novice for from $4 to' $15, depending upon the builder’s ability to use his hands. If the builder will construct most of his apparatus he will appreciate it much more and probably will under­ stand more about its operation than If he buys a set already made. How­ ever, for those who have not the abil­ ity or the time to spend constructing their own apparatus the following de­ scription will not only give the details ss to the construction of each com­ ponent part of a receiver but also what standard ready-made parts can be purchased and used in Its stead. The material can be purchased at any electrical supply store. In erecting a simple antenna for use with the receiver shown in the diagram, the antenna proper and the lead-in are of stranded hard-drawn copper wire, strand No. 22, costing about 1 cent per foot. The two insu­ lators are of molded material and can be purciiHsed for about 25 cents each. The antenna shown is supported be­ tween a house and a pole. It may be found more convenient to support It between a tree and a bouse, two houses or even between two chimneys on the same house. In bringing down the lead-in care should be taken that it is kept as far away from grouuded material as possible and wbeu bring­ ing through the wall or under the win­ dow into the house It should be brought through some sort of an insulating tube, such as rubber or bakelite. In making the ground connection the same kind of wire can be used as was purchased for the antenna. You run clean a section of the waterpipe thoroughly and solder the ground wire to it. MAKING THE TUNER To make a tuner for this receiver, the following raw material will be re­ quired : Piece of cardboard tubing th r e e ! Inches outside diameter and five Inches long, costing about 10 cents. 100 feet No. 22 double cotton-cov­ ered magnet wire costing 25 cents. Standard slider (see sketch) for 14 by % hr as 8 rod, 40 cents. 1 six-inch length of K by ^4 brass rod (square) 20 cents. 2 binding posts (see sketch) 20 cents. 2 circular blocks of wood whose diameter is Just equal to the inside diameter of the piece of cardboard tubing and between 8-8 and 1-2 Inch thick. Some shellac or varnish la alas lUlred. om Starting one-half inch from one end of the cardboard tube wind on tbe No. 22 D. C. C. wire within one-half inch of the other end of the tube. Fasten one end of the winding to the tube but allow some surplus wire on tbe other end for making a connec­ tion. After the winding is in place give It a coat of shellac er varnish to hold the turns in place. Aeeemble the circular-cut pieces of wood in the geometrical center of the square blocks and then shellac or varnish them for the appearance’s sake. When thoroughly dry slip the two end blocks into tbe wound tube and by means of a few finishing brads driven through the cardboard tube, fasten the end blocks to the wound tube. The slider ts to be mounted on top of the coll and should be cap­ able of making coutact with any turn of the wire on the tube. In order to remove the Insulation from the wire Just under the rod whore the slider moves back and forth, wrap a piece of sandpaper around * thin piece of wood and using another piece of wood aa a guide, sandpaper the insulation from the winding. Drill a hoi« one eighth inch in diameter through the slider rod about oue-fourtb inch in from each end so that the rod can be fastened by screws to tbe end blocks. After the slider rod is fastened in place see that the coutact finger on the bottom of the slider can at all times make good contact with the winding. Mount a binding post on either end of the coil, attaching one by means of a wire to tbe slider roti and the other to the end of the wire wound on the tube and the tuner Is complete. A tuner can be purchased already assembled tor about $8.50 to $4.00. LINKING MOVIE AND RADIO British Scientists Have Some Success in W ireless Transmission of Motion Pictures. , British scientists are reported to have met with more or less success In developing a method of transferring motion pictures by radio. Some months ago a photograph was trans ferred by wireless from tbe Copen hagen newspaper, tbe Politlken, to Eng land, and later from England to a ship in mid Atlantic, so that the possibil­ ity ot linking the movies with the new art is not remote. If perfected the new development of the already versatile art will make it possible for one to see on bis own re­ ceiving Instrument things that are bap pening at a great distance. For instance, a ship is sinking at sea. The transmitting station of the vessel, in­ stead of sending a message of tbe dis aster, sends a picture that anyone with a receiving set will be able to see just as the present broadcasting programs are heard. That all sounds remote now, but the telephone waa considered even more so, and the wireless, even after Marconi’s immortal message had bridged tbe Atlantic, waa generally be keved to be akin to the idea of per­ petual motion.
