RADIO SEI COSTS
ONLY ELEVEN GENTS
Portland Man Constructs Freak Set
With Aid of Large Ink
Bottle
PORTLAND, Ore., June !). The
radio set Is within the reach of every
one, according to V. K. Van Ronk, an
t'lectriclan In a Portland theater.
He says ho has proved It by con
structing a freak set with the aid of
a large Ink bottle, at a cost of eleven
cents. Iteing a true radio "bug," Van
Ronk hasn't patented his inexpensive
apparatus and Is willing to lot the
world in on the dark secret and make
sets like it.
1 "The set. cost me exactly eleven
cents, without the galen:, telephone
receiver and aerial wires," said Van
Ronk. "A piece of galena crystal will
cost thirty cents. Get about a dollar's
worth of bare copper wire for the
aerial and a S1.50 telephone receiver
of the ordinary variety, and tho fun
and pleasure you will get out of the
set will be worth more than $100 t'
you.
"Get a large ink bottle, or any kind
of a bottle will do. Wind thlrty-sU
turns of about No. 22 coiton-covere 1
magnet wire anywhere on the bottle.
Tape both ends of the coil so the wire
will stay on the bottle.
How to Make Coils
"The coil is tapped In six places,
six turns of wire to the tap, by lot
ting a two-inch length of wire stand
out. from the coil at every sixth
turn,' twisting it and then continuing
to wind in the same direction for six
more turns, where the same action
is completed.
"The detector Is made by fastening
a bulldog paper fastener to the mouth
of the bottle by two turns of friction
tape and running a 'catwhisker' wire
from the cork across the jaws of the
'bulldog' so that the 'catwhisker' rests
lightly on it. One end of the tuning
coil is connected to the aerial and also
to one end of the detector. The other
end of the detector is connected to one
terminal of the telephone receiver.
The other terminal of the telephone
is connected to the ground lead. An
other wire from the ground is hung
loosely above the tuning coil so that
1t can be connected to any tap of the
coll desired. In this manner a varia
tion of wave length is had and the
signals brought to the loudest point
when the correct point Is found. Make
your aerial about 100 feet long and as
high as you can get it. For a ground
connect to the nearest cold-water pipe"
