The individual character-istics of the amplifier and of the frequency control unit which permitthese two conditions to be satisfied fix the operating point of the the reasoning to be used in the succeeding paragraphsmay, in general, be applicfi to any oscillatory system, it will be easierto follow if descriijcd in terms of familiar electrical circuits.

It is necessary to use a two-stagecircuit if the voltages at ,1 and at B are to ha\e the same sign. Thisis because the grid voltage, which is obtained as a potential drop dueto current from an external source flowing through a resistance con-nected between the grid and the filament of the vacuum tube, reducesthe current flowing from the filament of the tube to the plate, througha second external resistance, as the current flowing from the grid to thefilament is reduced.
