The magneticdetector has low resistance compared with crystal detectors and, in consequence,the stopping condenser of the usual detector circuit becomes an active element ofthe closed oscillation circuit and must therefore be of variable capacity. In fact,placing the detector in series with the secondary circuit not only calls for a wind-ing of low inductance but one of low resistance as well. Hence the secondary coilis usually wound with rather coarse wire, such as No. 18 or No. 20 B. and S , 1 IN SERIES A = SOTO ISO METERj C i • Ci Ci c. C IN SERIES WITH AERIAL C.

A fundamental wiring diagram of the Marconi multiple tuner appears in Fig. 168 and amore detailed diagram showing approximately the position of the apparatus in the tunerin Fig. 169. Like notations are used in both drawings. Since this tuner is adjustable to wave lengths between 80 and approximately 3,000meters, a specially constructed series of multi-point switches S-1, S-2 and S-3 (Fig. 169)control the inductance and capacity of the primary, intermediate and secondary circuits fora progressive increase or decrease in wave length. The particular wave length adjustmentcorresponding to any position of the switch is clearly marked on the operating handle. 150 PRACTICAL WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. When the small D. P. D. T. switch is placed in the standby position, the magneticdetector is connected directly in series with the aerial and the necessar
