This involves connectionswith three antennas through three separate transmission lines. Thetuning of the antenna and transmission line terminations are ratherlengthy processes requiring precise adjustments. In order to facilitatequick changes from one operating frequency to another without intri-cate tuning operations, the first stage of radio amplification is providedin triplicate and the switching is done between the first and secondstage. Thus the antennas are permanently connected to the set andtheir adjustments remain undisturbed. The circuits of the second 284 BELL SYSTEM TECHNICAL JOURNAL. ca unS CQ > co
