242 Radio Broadcast FIG. 8 The three-circuit receiver before being converted (see Figs. 9, 10, and 1 1. This receiver was described on page 136, Radio Broadcast for December, 1922). The upper left hand posts are for antenna and ground, and are replaced by a jack (upper right in Fig. 12) into which the loop aerial is plugged fore; in fact they were used to illustrate A. Henry's article, " Paris and Honolulu Are Calling You," in our December, 1922, number. We have converted Mr. Henry's three-circuit regenerative outfit (Fig. 8) into a wave-changer simply by the addition of a tube socket, a twocoil mounting, and two large coils to couple the output of the wave changer to the intermediatefrequency amplifier. By combining this wave changer with such a circuit as illustrated in Fig. 1 of Mr. Eltz's article (p. 145, Dec, 1923), we have a complete super-heterodyne. Fig. 10 shows the panel with coils mounted. The two upper left-hand posts connect to a loop. The diagram (Fig. 11) shows the connections. The layout has been altered very little. The diagram shows clearly the values of duo-lateral coils employed. A new fig. 9 Rear view of the set shown in Fig. 8
