Single Valve Tube.—This valve tube, owing to its special construction,is much less inclined to become hard than the simpler types of valve is fitted with the new regenerator so that it can be maintained at a uniformdegree of softness ; this should be maintained at about 16 mm. equivalentspark-gap. When the tube requires regenerating one wire should be con-.
