A short wave receiving set is one that will receive a range of wave lengths of from 150 to 600 meters while the distance over which the waves can be received as well as the intensity of the sounds reproduced by the headphones depends on: whether it is a regenerative set and whether it is provided with amplifying tubes.

The young business manager paced the deck of the barge, at every step reproaching himself for allowing his chum to undertake so hazardous a venture.

Two kinds of these loud speakers are made and these are: a small loud speaker for the use of operators so that headphones need not be worn, and a large loud speaker for auditorium and out-door audiences.

In using either of these heterodyne receivers be sure to carefully adjust the B battery by means of the potentiometer. Wireless Headphones. A telephone receiver for a wireless receiving set is made exactly on the same principle as an ordinary Bell telephone receiver.

The ends of this magnet, which are called poles, are bent up, and hence this type is called a bipolar receiver. The magnets are wound with fine insulated wire as before and the diaphragm is held securely in place over them by screwing on the cap. About Resistance, Turns of Wire and Sensitivity of Headphones.

Shinny cackled, his thin voice coming over the headphones of the others as well as Connel's. "I sure do, Lou!" replied Shinny, using Connel's first name.

At the same time the alternating positive and negative voltage of the oscillating currents is impressed on the grid; at each change from + to and back again it allows the electrons to strike the plate and then shuts them off; as the electrons form the conducting path between the filament and the plate the larger direct current from the B battery is permitted to flow through the detector tube and the headphones.
