EDDY If you engage yourself In conversa tion with the average amateur con-' cerning his radio receiving set It will not be l9ng before he will bring up the question of maximum range of re ception, which would be the para mount topic of discussion. ■ It Is thus that we have grown Into the habit of judging the relative merit of a re ceiving set Jay the range rt»at It can cover, and although this method of judgment is not altogether fair and just to all types of outfits, yet for the average beginner or radio experi menter It does form a good basis of quality. The standard range of the regenerative receiver is quite an un known quantity, for amateurs and ex perts having almost Identical circuits -j and antenna conditions give very con flicting claims. But still, If we are to base most of our tffTffms on dis tance, on everyday possibility' of re ceiving a certain broadcasting sta tion, it would he, very near the (ruth If we should Uniit the regenerative re ceiver to approximately arrange of 100 miles when using a rather sensitive detector tube. Most amateurs realizing this have endeavored to augment this distance by the use of a combination of audio | and radio frequency amplifiers—In other words, the reflex circuit. With the former type success was assured where the sensitivity of the detector ! was great enough to detect the signal, but since the sensitive tube must he a ! soft tube—that is, a tube that hisses j at a critical point—the number of J audio frequency stages Is somewhat ! limited. To adapt radio frequency ! amplification to a regenerative re ceiver after once It has been con structed is by no "means an easy task. Yet some amateurs have not only ac complished »thls, hut have obtained re markable results. For the vast majority of beginners the true answer to the problem of building a long distance receiver is not the regenerative receiver with audio amFrudlo frequency amplifiers no^the superregeperatlve receiver, bht a re radio frequency currents may pass. It is suggested that 301A p tubes be used In all reflex circuits, since this tube responds to radio frequency currents much better than others. If this tube is used It would be ad visable to employ a 50-ohm rheostat In the event that a six-volt" battery Is used. , The constructor attempting to build either of these sets should not employ direct-.. regeneration. Once the tube starts oscillating the whole set may become paralyzed due to the clicking of the tubes: Different types of tubes have .vari ous effects with the transformers em ployed in the set. There are a number of good radio frequency transformers now on the market. At times it Is best to employ a high ratio audio transformer In the A. F. stage. With this type of set either loop or aerial may he used. If the tube spills over, reduce the values of- the capacity in shunt to the seeomflries of the wind ings of the transformers. In using the 301A tubes it will be found that most of the funing will he done by the use of the rheostats, potentiometer and condenser in shunt to loop.—New York Herald, COMMANDER 'WICKER BUSY LEGIONNAIRE If any member'of the American Le glon in Virginia fulls to go to the polls, to exercise his right of franchise. It will not the fault of John J. Wicker, department commander of the organ ization. For Commander Wicker', whose penchant In matters of govern ment has made expression of the will of Legionnaires, his first objective through his year at the helm. This Is but a part of the aim of Commander Wicker to make his de partment of the Legion one of the most vigorous, If not the greatest in size. Other points of his program for 1924 call for enactment of the adjusted Compensation measure by the federal government, erection of a non-utili tarian movement In Virginia as. a war memorial, and appointment of a com mittee In the state law-making body to^liandle all-veteran legislation as has b#n done in congress. ^ Wicker has been an ardent Legion naire almost since the time of the in ception of the Legion. He was an or ganizer In Virginia and was a charter member of Richmond P°st No. 1. 11^ was elected to serve as a delegate to the St. Louis caucus In 4 1919, and has attended every national convention since that time. It was through his efforts that the state of Virginia ap propriated $5,000 for expense Incident to organizing the Legion throughout the state, unprecedented In Legion an nals. He held the position of first na tional executive committeeman from that state, and followed this by a sec ond term, but refused to accept the post for another year. He has served on several Important national commit tees, Including the Post Deportation committee, and that which conveyed to the Knights of Columbus the action of the Legion In connection with the preferred memorial building. A most unusual distinction given to Com mander Wicker was his appointment to the National Distinguished Quests committee for the Kansas City con vention, when he acted as escort to General Diaz during the trip.

This Is at once an evidence of evasion, for the simple reason* that at the end of the story the vvhote thing will he found to be the original reflex circuit./ A rifllex set can he made from a single tube and crystal detector, the single tube serving for both awlio and radio frequency amplification. If It is desired to operate a loud speaker we must resort to a two or three tube reflex circuit. Here the first two tubes serve as radio amplifiers and audio am plifiers, with the crystal ns detector. The schematic diagram shows a num ber of two-tube reflex circuits. If amplifier tubes are used In all stages the B battery should be regu lated so that the proper B battery voltage Is applied to their respective plates. This Is accomplished by ex periment. Usually between ^forty-five and seventy volts are [found best for the plate voltage. - | In the actual application of the cir cuits there are several difficulties to be overcome. The tubes, for instance, must he coupled ft»r both radio and au dio frequency amplification, but placing the audio frequency amplifier In a clr- cuiNwhere radio frequency currents are flowing, the windings of the secondary act as a choke coll and prevent the radio frequency currents from -pass ing. -To overcome this a condenser is shunted around the windings so the I John J.
