HENLEY'S NEWEST BOOK IS WELL PREPARED
The new edition of the Radio Experimenter's Handbook, by M. B. Sleeper, published by the Norman W. Henley Publishing Co., retails at one dollar, and tells — in a clear and concise way — the " Why " of radio.
One purpose was kept in mind by the writer in preparing this book, and that purpose was answering the practical questions of the novice as well as the more advanced student of radio.
Radio reviewing on all types of sets is clearly explained, and many helpful suggestions are given which will aid everyone. Transmitter construction is cleverly explained.
Among the contents are chapters on " Setting Up and Operating a Damped Wave Transmitter," " Apparatus Used in Simple Damped Wave Receivers," " Setting Up and Operating a Simple Damped Wave Receiver," " Radio Antennas and Grounding," " Advanced Damped Wave Receiving Apparatus," " How Does an Audion Work?" "Damped Wave Audion Receiving Set," " Advanced Damped Wave Audion Receiving Apparatus," " What Is an Undamped Wave?" " Undamped Wave Telegraph and Telephone Transmitters," " Undamped Wave Receivers," "The Audion Amplifier," "Radio Rules and Regulations."
