An article explains how battery voltage, capacity, and tube condition affect radio volume. It covers common causes of early battery failure, from insufficient “B” and “R” battery capacity to worn tube filaments, and suggests testing with a voltmeter and known good tubes to diagnose and rejuvenate performance.
The article explains placing by pass condensers to block radio frequency from reaching audio circuits. Install across A and B batteries and between 41 volt plus and negative, and 0 volt plus and negative. Use large capacity from half to two microfarads, test for leakage, and add a condenser across the audio transformer primary to stop RF from detector reaching the transformer.
The article explains using extra transformers before the detector to increase radio frequency amplification. It claims this raises volume and clarity by activating the detector with sufficient gain. It notes two stages are usually safe, and in careful designs even one stage may suffice.
The article explains that rundown B batteries should be replaced even if voltage appears sufficient. B cells under 17 volts or 22% rated units under 17 volts and 45 volt types under 84 volts are considered insufficient and may cause noises if left in the circuit.
The article describes new variable condensers enclosed in brass housings to protect plates from injury and dust, prevent physical damage to capacity, and shield the condenser from magnetic interference by nearby instruments.
