Meters of the type described are widely available
at prices varying between 50p and £1, much less of
course than any other types.

would indicate a gain of 1,000 while for silicon this
reading would indicate a gain of about 1,500. At
minimum setting the gain would be about 5 for
germanium and 7 for silicon. If there are transistors
with gains outside this range the author has never
heard of them.
It will mean that two scales for the gain will have
to be marked, one for germanium and the other for
silicon. An alternative would be to mark the gain
scale for only one type (presumably silicon as these
are far more common nowadays) and remember that
a constant conversion factor is needed for germa-
nium, that is divide the reading by 0.7.
Note that this tester is not really suitable for
power transistors as the gain varies with the col-
lector current and power transistors are designed
for very much higher collector currents than the
lmA used here.
Another disadvantage is that a true gain reading
is not possible if the leakage is high, though the
circuit will at least show if the device is usable
and in any case a transistor with high leakage is
not likely to be of much use anyway.

AUDIO THE THD BRIDGE

The basis of all THD meters is the bridge used to
remove the fundamental of the test signal. The cir-
cuit given in Fig. 2 is a typical arrangement and
covers the frequency range 15 to 30000Hz. The input
attenuator may be an ordinary log carbon track

be quite large, e.g. that from a typical amplifier run-

With an audio voltmeter connected at the outpi}t of
the THD bridge, the input attenuator (VR1) must be

could be used as there is sufficient range of control
in the feedback potentiometer VR1.

POWER SUPPLY
The power supply must be stabilised but a simple
zener diode control was found adequate. The supply
rail must be adjusted to exactly 24V. The circuit for
the power supply is shown in Fig. 4 and, in the
original, employed a transformer and rectifier to
deliver an initial supply of 30V. Any suitable zener

The reading now remaining on the audio voltmeter
will be the r.m.s. amplitude of all the harmonics and
this is simply related to the reference signal as a per-
centage. Remember that a distortion level of 0.1 per
cent is 60dB down or 1000 times lower than the
reference signal level, hence the reason for ensuring
an extremely low hum and noise level in the THD
bridge amplifier. If the meter is carefully built it is
possible to read to 0.05 per cent from a 2V reference
but as the initial signal and hence the reference
signal falls below 1V so the lowest percentage read-
able will increase.
For example, 0.1 per cent is just possible with a

OPERATION
As already mentioned the THD bridge can be used
with an external audio volt/millivolt meter having a
lowest range of lmV f.s.d. If the built-in audio volt-
meter is used this must be very accurately calibrated.
The normal procedure for THD measurement is to
adjust the output of the amplifier under test to the
power level at which distortion is to be measured,
making sure that the input signal to the amplifier is
within the specified limit. The signal from the ampli-
fier is now fed to the bridge input and the attenuator
adjusted to obtain a reference signal of say 1V r.m.s.
The signal from the bridge should be displayed on an
oscilloscope. The bridge circuit is now switched to
"null" and the main frequency control set to the
frequency of the test signal. Set the main balance

 You'd have a job to buy a better system at any price.
Yet it costs just £198.
And a couple of enjoyable weekends.
This meticulously integrated system does full justice to the most
demanding composition.
The AR-2000 Tuner/Amplifier provides 40 watts output power rms at a
distortion level of less than 0:25%- and receives FM stereo pIus Long, Medium
& Short wavebands with unrivalled audio response.

The Garrard AP7S deck with its Shure cartridge is of the same superb quality.
And of the Ambassador speakers, Hi Fi News said "particularly impressive
and doing full justice to large scale choral and orchestral music this model
should receive serious attention from those wanting a bigger system."
Only the Heathkit home construction system gives you this quality at this
price. And our step-by-step instructions and full factory backing mean that
you can't go wrong. Even if you get completely stuck, our experts will
find and rectify the trouble. This we guarantee.
And think. If you assemble this system in an average time,
your labours will have been worth about £1.50 per hour.
Which makes it a profitable hobby.

 the body as the dielectric. Each electrode has a thin
screened wire which is plugged into the back pack.
It is a well known medical fact that when a lady
becomes with child she immediately undergoes
certain body changes and thus the dielectric constant
of the body also changes thus altering the effective
value of the capacitor.

eblal. it
The Detector Unit contains a crystal controlled
oscillator on about 100kMc plus a second oscillator
using the popular Whottle circuit also operating
close to 100kMc. It is into the second oscillator
circuit that the Sensing electrodes are plugged. The
only control on the Detector Unit consists of a small
balancing variable capacitor of 10µF which is
combined with the on-off -on -off switch.
The Power Unit in the two pouches on the belt is
formed from approximately four thousand type
BA71 X 67 X 89 rechargeable cells wired in series.
Since the capacity of these cells is limited, about 2µF,
the design incorporates an arrangement for recharg-
ing the cells from the mains supply. NOTE:-The
cells must not be recharged while the UBA is being
worn. An undetected leakage in the system could
have disastrous results.

Con,ttluctioft
The two oscillators are contained within a single
integrated circuit, type K9P no indiscrete components

a wooden frame made to fit inside the haversack.

in the hope that our example will eventually be
followed by others.
The UBA is simple to construct, easy to install

MANY receivers used on the short wave bands
suffer from two particular limitations; lack
of sufficient adjacent channel selectivity and
the appearance of second -channel interference on
the higher frequencies. These defects have com-
pletely different causes so it is helpful to note
briefly how they arise.
Second -Channel Interference. Because of the way
in which a superhet operates, the i.f. stages can pass
and amplify signals which are twice the i.f. from the
wanted signal. With an intermediate frequency of
470kHz, the second channel is 940kHz from the
wanted signal. On low frequencies the aerial and
mixer tuned circuits prevent such signals reaching
the mixer. But on the higher frequency bands the
aerial and mixer circuits become less effective so
that second channel interference becomes trouble- 1.6MHz crystal filter can be switched in giving a

and at the ends. The side flanges
are both cut away by snipping out
a 90° section 112in. from the end.

Wiring is shown in Fig. 3. All

 THE idea of using numerical indicator tubes to
give a digital time display is not new; indeed
several designs exist already to provide such a
display using TTL elements for the logic circuitry.
This article sets out to simplify the construction
of a twenty-four hour digital clock in order to make it
a practical proposition for the home constructor. The
main simplification in construction results from the
use of readily available printed circuit boards (the
`Decade PCB' supplied by RS Components Ltd).*
The mains frequency is used as the prime timing
source, thus reducing the circuit complexity while
maintaining sufficient accuracy for most needs.
Only two types of integrated circuits are used
throughout; the 7490 1 -.UL Decade Counter and the
7441 TTL B.C.D. to Decimal Decoder/Driver.
Although a zero reset facility is not included a
simple method is shown for setting the clock initially
using two push buttons.
Either a light -emitting diode (l.e.d.) or a small
filament lamp may be used to provide a combined
decimal point and flashing seconds display.
The power supply is much simplified by the use of
a monolithic voltage regulator for the 5V regulated
supply needed for the integrated circuits.
For simplicity the design is separated into three
distinct units, the power supply, the countdown
board (which also includes initial setting) and the
seconds flasher. The circuit diagrams for these units
are shown in the article.

play decoding functions is decided on grounds of * Reference to the components list indicates that

The 250V a.c. secondary of the transformer is used

in conjunction with ä single capacitor and rectifier to
supply the tubes with the necessary voltage via a
current limiting series resistor.
The 6.3V secondary provides both the timing
source and the 5V power supply as will be seen from
reference to Fig. 2. The 50Hz timing signal is simply
half wave rectified 6.3V which is clipped with a -

4.7V zener diode to provide an -input signal which

approximates to a square wave.
The 6.3V secondary is also connected to a bridge

nectors and the controls close to the panel and as
short as possible, using screened cable where indi-
cated. Note that all earth connections and cable
screen connections are made to one point-the body
of the volume control. A good hot soldering iron
is needed to flow solder on to the back of the con-
trol's case and prolonged heating should be avoided.
Some components are carried by Si, S2 and the
headphone socket. Those on S1 are anchored at one
end only and should have the shortest possible leads.
A cylindrical screen (cut from a tin can) surrounds
the whole of Si and its components and this can
easily be bent into a shape that will clip into position,
or can be soldered in place.

 card The Circuit
As can be seen from Fig. 1, the circuit consists of
five transistors, each acting as a switch. The transis-
tors used were all type AC126. They will `handle'
about 500mW which is well over the power drain of
this circuit and meets our requirements admirably.
Trl, Tr2 and Tr3 obtain their base bias voltage
through LDR1, 2 and 3. When these are in the dark
A. BIRDS their resistance is high thus there is virtually no
bias on these transistors and they will not conduct.
In the light the resistance is low so the transistors are
biased and allow current to flow.
The other two transistors and LDR's do almost
exactly the opposite. They are biased through resis-
tors Rl and R2. When LDR4 and 5 are in the dark

THIS is really a novelty safe made from their resistance is high and Tr4 and Tr5 receive their

to that of the bias voltage required, therefore it can-

The Theory All the transistors are connected in series so that
Basically it consists of five transistors, each acting any break in this circuit, i.e. any transistors not
as a switch and placed in series with the others. The
operation is as follows. Five light-dependent resistors
(LDR's) are strategically placed in recesses on a
metal plate, opposite which is a bright light. A card

It seems strange that some people should appear to
be born with so many talents. Take William Herschel
sGI NsaERG
for example, who began adult life as a professional
musician. Many would have been happy to spend
their days amongst the semiquavers but not
Herschel. In 1781 he discovered the planet Uranus
which brought him great fame in the realms of
astronomy-truly he was a star. George III was so
impressed that he endowed Herschel with a civil
list pension. Enough for any man, surely. But not so
for our William who immediately turned his atten-
tion to solar spectroscopy. It was he who discovered
that, if a thermometer was held just beyond the
end of the spectrum visible to the eye, an increase
in temperature was apparent. Because this end of the
spectrum was past the visible red, Herschel named it
the infra -red and thus a new name was born.
The apparatus used was crude by modern stan-
dards, and the liquid thermometers slow to respond,
but Herschel showed that the effect was there and
that the radiation, just like that of visible light,
could be refracted and reflected.
These first, simple experiments early in the nine-
teenth century have passed from the realms of
novelty into an exacting science.
Infra -red cameras can give an indication of certain

For the few who have learnt the rather bitter lesson that "fantastic
and fabulous bargains" usually carry a built-in catch, that for junk
prices you usually get junk, and that the nice dealer isn't really
giving you something for nothing. To those few who feel that if
they get what they pay for they haven't done too badly, we would
like to mention that in the field of Amateur Communications and
allied equipment, our name is top of the list.
We are the actual importers of Yaesu Musen Amateur Band
Receivers, Transmitters and Transceivers, along with a wide range
of accessories such as Aerials (beams, verticals, mobile whips),
Filters (mechanical, crystal, high pass, low pass), Digital Voltmeters,
Digital clocks, Digital frequency meters, Headsets, Morse keys,
Electronic keyers, Microphones, Valves, R.F. wattmeter/dummy
loads to mention just a few. We have a very good second-hand
selection of the best Amateur equipment and can service your
communications equipment for you. Everything we sell carries a
full money-back guarantee.
To mention just one specific piece of equipment that we feel is
unbeatable:-Yaesu YC-305 Counter. A frequency meter counting
to over 30 MHz and reading to cycles, mains or battery, S digit
readout. A professional piece of laboratory equipment at a very
low price. Brand new £97.50.
SEND us u. LARGE s.a.e. and we'll fill it with guff on all our gear.
For Amateur Radio products of high quality at fair prices-you
want us. Past!! You want earth shattering bargains? Free gifts?
Enormous discounts? Try further down the road, sir.
Hours: Tuesday to Saturday 9-5.30 (closed for lunch l-2 and all day

considered by the author to be those which most
closely simulated a gun firing, but this is largely a
matter of personal choice.
Changes to the amplifier section should not be
necessary and will not affect the sound to any extent
but Cl, C2 and C3 can be experimented with, Cl
and C3 favour the higher "noise" frequencies at the
expense of the lower ones.
The output of the circuit is something over 1V
and it has been found that it helps to overload the
amplifier slightly with the output from this unit.
The current is small and a PP3 battery is quite
sufficient to power the circuit.
The whole unit can be built into a small plastic
box with the push button switches on top. The
price shown in the components list is for the Castelco
types of plastic switches. A Veroboard layout is
shown in Fig. 2 though of course layout is far from "You've given him a lot more than TVI to worry

OUR fame is spreading! One of our regular Mr. F. Stewart of 673 Great Western Highway,

of Athens, Greece. Back" with a view to exchanging vintage valves.

wavemeter Type A by the Marconi Wireless Tele-
graph Co. made in 1928 and covering 125 to 500
metres in two ranges.
The usual buzzer was connected to the tuned
circuit in the "transmit" mode while a crystal
detector was switched in on "receive". However it
was the construction that most intrigued us since
every part is hand made, the panel and all insulating
material being cut or turned from solid "Keramot",
a red version of the better known black ebonite. This
material could be buffed and polished to produce a
beautiful lustrous finish, especially on panels which
were then engraved and filled white. No sticky
transfers that rub off in no time at all!
The fixed condenser (we refuse to say capacitor!)

This 3-valve German radio receiver was rescued from destruction

by a Greek reader of 'Going Back'.

The maker of this "little wonder" was the UNDA

company of Munich and the date of manufacture
was 1924.
It is to be hoped that Mr. P will make other finds
since vintage equipment of other countries is likely
to be of a design quite different from that which
we are accustomed to see in this country.
