GENERAL
This Receiver is for use on 100 to 130 volts direct current. It must not be connected to an alternat-
ing current line.
The resistor plug must be placed in the socket at the rear right-hand corner of the base. This socket
is used for an 80 rectifier tube in some of the A.C. models. No rectifier is required with this Receiver,
although if a tube is placed in this socket no damage will be done.
The field coil of the speaker used with this Receiver is of low resistance. · It is not the same as the
field coil used with the A.C. Electric Receiver. If by mistake, a speaker from an A.C. Electric Receiver
is.plugged into the D.C. Receiver, no damage will be done, but only an extremely weak, distorted signal
will be obtained. If a speaker from a D.C. Electric Receiver is plugged into an A.C. Receiver, again no
damage will be done, but the reception will be weak and distorted.
COMPENSATING
Always use an oscillator signal when adjusting compensating ()ondensers. With the Receiver set
up for operation, adjust the oscillator and Receiver so the signal is tuned in between 120 and 140 on the
tuning scale. Have the Receiver volume control turned on full. Adjust the oscillator so that the received
signal is very weak. Using a fibre wrench turn down on the adjusting nut of the first compensating con-
. denser until it is quite tight. This purposely throws the first stage out of balance while adjusting the
second stage.
After tightening this first adjusting nut compensate the second condenser in the usual manner,
th~t is, tune the Receiver very carefully to the oscillator signal and adjust the compensating condenser
for the maximum signal. After this adjustment has been made, adjust the first compensating condenser
in the same manner. REPLACEMENT PARTS
