Selectivity and Stability The "bypass" condenser plays an important role in every tuned radio frequency amplifier — because it governs the selectivity and stability. — An individual "bypass" condenser should be employed for each radio frequency amplifying tube. AEROVOX "bypass" condensers, sealed in Bakelite, are particularly effective in radio frequency amplifiers because of their construction. They are non-inductive — impervious to moisture and are available in all capacities up to 1 mid. and rated at 200 volts D. C. A FRO WX "-BunV Welter" 70 Washington St., Brooklyn, N. Y. Silent Magic Radio is better with Battery Power J. URN your radio dial, and presto! you turn your home into a theater, a concert hall, a lecture room, a cabaret, a church, or whatever you will. That is all there is to this magic of radio. Or almost all. If a radio set is to work at its very best, attracting no attention to itself, creating for you the illusion that can be so convincing, you must pay a little attention to the kind of power you give it. There is but one direction, a simple one — use Battery Power. Only such power is steady, uniform, silent. It is called by scientists pure Direct Current. Any other kind of current in your radio set may put a hum into the purest note of a flute, a scratch into the song of the greatest singer, a rattle into any voice. Don't tamper with tone. Beware of interfering with illusion. Power that reveals its presence by its noise is like a magician's assistant who gives the trick away. Use batteries — use the Eveready Layerbilt "B" Battery No. 486, the remarkable battery whose exclusive, patented construction makes it last longest. It offers you the gift of convenience, a gift that you will appreciate almost as much as you will cherish the perfection of reception that only Battery Power makes possible. NATIONAL CARBON CO., INC.
