1. Increase the selectivity.
2. Widen the wave-length range.
Prevent interference from radia-

4. fncrease the receiving distance.
5. Make clearer reception possible.
With only a few changes in the con

Easy to Make Universal
Joint Crystal Detector
This idea for a good detector is one
with which a -fene..adjustment may be
made on any point of .the crystal.
Tlie detector described here has a
form of universal ^pint which allows
such an adjustment.
It is mounted on a wood base, 0 by
8 by *4 Inches. The materials re
quired are, a base, two binding posts,
a strip of spring brass "2Vi by V4
inches, a wooden pot-lid •’knob, three
small lock washers, and several
pieces from a structural toy set such
as ‘‘Erector’’ or “Meccano.”
To make the universal Joint first
get a"24-.lhc}i strip, three small angle
pieces, and several nuts and holts from
the toy set. These are assembled as
shown In the diagram with lof>k
washers under the, puts, at the points
E and C. A round-head wood screw
with a lock washer under the head .Is
used to hold the joint to the base at
A. A plain washer is placed between
the wood and the angle-piece to make
It turn easily. The knob is put on one
arm and the cat-
