In operating a set of this character adjust the tube filamentcurrent to the proper value, then tune for the desired signalby varying the condenser and inductance coil, the plate or 78 ELEMENTS OF RADIO TELEPHONY tickler coil being adjusted somewhat below its maximumvalue. When the desired signal is heard, increase the plate-coil adjustment until the signal is amplified to its maximiunpoint. This point is just below the adjustment for the self-osciUating condition. A variation in the plate-coil adjust-ment wiU usually change the tuning of the antenna circuitand require a shght readjustment of condenser or coil tokeep the signal at maximum intensity.
