Radio Receiving Coils For Amateur Winding Tutorial
The article explains honeycomb or utural wound coils enabling reception from all wave lengths on a single set. It describes tuning by variable condensers or variometers and gives step by step guidance for winding the coils and mounting, proposing a simple, neat method using two inch inside diameter cardboard tubing.

Winding a Radio Coil with Precision and Wire Specs
Instructions describe building a 25 turn coil on a 1 inch wide tubing frame with brass contact strips. Winding proceeds from a near contact to the thirteenth peg then back, using No 24 to No 30 wire depending on wavelength. Solder joints hidden under winding. 25 turns cover one layer up to 400 meters, 36 turns for longer wavelengths.
Coil winding and mounting for RF transformers
Instructions describe winding coils with protective fiber wrap, calculating wavelengths from turns and capacitance, selecting primary and secondary condensers, applying a varnish finish, and building a simple mechanical coupler with movable and stationary coils. It covers coil cover, varnish formula, contact springs, and mounting details for three coil versions.
Cheap handmade loud speaker for radio outfits
A simple do it yourself loud speaker can be built for about 20 cents using cardboard or thin wood and cigar boxes. The horn is fashioned with a gradual flare, reinforced with white pine strips, and a grille conceals interior parts. Finished with leatherette or stain the horn becomes a stylish, low cost addition to a receiving set.

Plan for Mounting Coils Behind Panel
The honeycomb coil mounting shown is one of the best arrangements for mounting coils behind the panel. It is often undesirable to have the coils mounted on the face of the panel especially when closed.
Fine tuning via ad justment and operator capacity control
The passage describes a precise adjustment method where a fine adjustment achieves tuning with no operator hand influence. It notes that any remaining capacity effect can be removed by shielding the panel.
Description of mounting and band components for an apparatus
The two pieces 7. F. may be wood, fiber or bakelite with holes tapped for rods R R. The two movable mountings attach to these rods. Band B 1 are strips of fairly heavy brass bent to shape and attached as indicated.

How to Make Simple Variable Grid Leak
A vintage note explains converting old radiophan rheostat wire into a variable grid leak. It describes removing the wire, reattaching the fiber ring, smoothing the contact surface, and marking it. By turning the knobs on the panel the resistance is varied for a variable grid leak.
Longer Life for Tubes and Proper Amplification
A tube life guide explains that overloading tubes by excessive voltage or load shortens life. It recommends adding a stage of amplification rather than overworking the tube and notes a 3 percent rating over can cut life in half while 3 percent under can double it.
AC Power Uses in Radio Amplifier Tubes
The article explains that alternating current can heat amplifier tubes but causes hum if used for detectors, hindering signal reception. It notes crystal detectors rectify signals in multi stage amps and that a hard tube rectifier with a filter can supply plate voltage.
