Vacuum Tube Oscillator Powers Undamped Radio Frequencies
A three electrode vacuum tube used as an oscillator converts DC plate energy into undamped AC across a wide range from 0.5 to 150 million cycles per second. It notes undamped CW radio teleg and amateur use, and explains how grid and plate interactions sustain oscillations without growth or decay.
Static and radio transmission engineering insights
Radio Merchandising discusses summer static, its causes, and methods to reduce it. The piece explains tuned circuits, self excitation in three electrode tubes, and how coil coupling affects oscillation. It notes more static in warm months and offers practical steps like sharper tuning and directional antennas.
