like manner on the vertical left border line or vice<br />

versa. Beginning at the lower wavelengths, the dial<br />

position for the stations tuned-in on the receiver are<br />

located by cross-reference continuing until the maximum<br />

setting has been obtained. A line is then<br />

drawn from point to point resulting in a continuous<br />

curve. Not all curves will be very straight as the settings<br />

at the lower wavelengths are crowded closer<br />

together than at the higher settings. The curve<br />

shown in Fig. 8 is an exaggerated example to serve<br />

as an illustration. A more correct form is shown in<br />

BATTERY SWITCHES FOR TESTING SETS<br />

MAKING comparison tests between radio<br />

sets, it is advantageous to have a double throw<br />

INswitch by which either of two sets may be quickly<br />

connected to the antenna and ground and to the<br />

batteries. The arrangement of a switch to do this<br />

is complicated by the fact that various manufacturers<br />

use different methods of connection between<br />

the A, B, and C batteries.<br />

Considering only two plate voltages and one bias<br />

voltage, a nine-pole double throw switch would seem<br />

to be required in order to prevent short circuit of the FIG. 58
