Whitsuntide in Rothenburg with Tilly and the Pokal
A National Geogramia Society account extols Rothenburg ob der Tauber during Whitsuntide. It recounts Tilly’s siege, the heroic defense, and the legendary wine drinking by ex burgomaster George Nuseh that spared the town and inspired the annual pageant. The piece highlights medieval streets, gates, churches, and the preserved walls sought by travelers and artists.

Coil Driven Speaker Improves Frequency Response
A British patent by C W Rice describes a Rice Kellogg style loud speaker using a moving coil in a gapped magnetic field with one or two short circuited copper rings acting as a secondary winding to lower impedance. This arrangement flattens the response across speech and music bands, improving high frequency reaction.

Sets and Interference in Radio Receivers
The article discusses how sensitive radio sets pick up finer disturbances as receivers improve. It warns that improperly arranged accessories like chargers and battery eliminators create eddy currents and local interference, urging careful layout of the set and components to reduce stray disturbances and maintain performance.

Power fire alters radio series on surface wire travel
A study notes that audio frequencies below 10,000 cycles per second tend to log to the surface of a wire rather than penetrate inward enabling changes in radio alteration. The writing discusses how surface traveling waves behave and the potential for weak comparative series of radio alterations to remain near the exterior.
Radio detector filament voltage tips for efficient operation
Radio operators are advised to avoid running detectors at high filament voltages. A setting of 10 to 20 on the rheostat suffices, while higher levels waste current. Larger storage batteries require less frequent charging, but charging time remains short if ratings are equal. Always disconnect at the batteries before moving equipment to prevent short circuits.
Radio Wave Penetration and Tuning Mechanics Described
A historical note explains radio waves capable of penetrating steel vaults and outlines how atmospheric solar conditions and metal interaction affect intensity. It mentions receiving sets, tuning towers, and the role of aerials grounds and detectors in converting intercepted waves to audible frequencies.
Watch Resistor Values For In Elimination Circuits
The note discusses selecting resistor values for resistor networks in eliminator circuits. It emphasizes matching portions of the circuit where significant voltage drops occur to feed multiple tubes, requiring heavy current in some sections and smaller drops in others for single-tube, low-current stages.
Centenarians and the paradox of worry in old age
A New York health commissioner asserts people can live to 100 and urges ceasing worry. Yet centenarians buy radios and automobiles on installment plans, suggesting some still find cause for concern. The piece notes that some folks seemingly enjoy their worries despite longevity.
