Use of the heterodyne current analyzer over a periodof two years has proven it to be one of the most reliable means formaking measurements. With proper maintenance, which consistsonly in maintaining constant A and B battery voltages and gridvoltage, and with proper precautions as to shielding and balance,readings can be taken with a precision of 2 per cent. Vacuum Tube Curves Obtained ivith Heterodyne Current Analyzer. Anumber of curves have been added to illustrate the application of thecurrent analyzer, though of course these represent only a small part ofthe field of usefulness for which it is adapted.

Two sets of curves are shownwhich were taken for two values of load impedance, one being equiva-lent to the normal tube impedance and the other being six times aslarge. The output currents have all been computed to show the equiv-alent output into 600 ohms which is a common reference standard ofimpedance used in telephone work. 244 BELL SYSTEM TECHNICAL JOURNAL The second set of curves, shown in Fig. 12, were taken with anL tube (101-D) but with two input frequencies oi Q = 5,000 andP = 13,000 cycles appHed simultaneously.
