The 250— ohm tap is connection point No. 5 of the transformer.
To change the output impedance, remove a phone tip from the
4,000— ohm jack and insert it into the 250— ohm jack on the
terminal strip located on the underside of the chassis adjacent
to the first detector coil unit assembly. This circuit change
connects the speaker and both phone jacks for the impedance

29.1. Preventive Maintenance Techniques (Added). —
Preventive maintenance is a systematic series of operations per
formed at regular intervals on equipment to eliminate major break
downs and unwanted interruptions in service, and to keep the equip
ment operating at top efficiency. To understand what is meant by
preventive maintenance, it is necessary to distinguish between pre
ventive maintenance, trouble shooting, and repair. The prime func
tion of preventive maintenance is to prevent break-downs and, there
fore, the need for repair. On the other hand, the prime function of
trouble shooting and repair is to locate and correct existing defects.
The importance of preventive maintenance cannot be overempha
sized. The entire system of radio communication depends upon each
set's being, on the air when it is needed and upon its operating effici
ency. It is vitally important that radio operators and repairmen
maintain their radio sets properly.

29.2. Description of Preventive Maintenance Techniques
(Added).—
a. General. —
Most of the electrical parts used in Radio Receivers BC-312-(*),
BC-312-(*)X, BC-342-(*), BC-314-(*), and BC-344-(*) require
preventive maintenance. Those requiring maintenance differ in the
amount and kind required. Because hit-or-miss maintenance tech
niques cannot be applied, definite and specific instructions are needed.
This section contains these specific instructions and serves as a guide
AGO 372C
for personnel assigned to perform the six basic maintenance opera
tions: Feel, Inspect, Tighten, Clean, Adjust, and Lubricate.
Throughout this change, the lettering system for the six operations
will be as follows:
F—Feel
I—Inspect
T—Tighten
C— Clean
A —Adjust
L—Lubricate
The first two operations establish the need for the other four. The
selection of operations is based on a general knowledge of field needs.
For example, the dust encountered on dirt roads during cross-country
travel filters into the equipment no matter how much care is taken to
prevent it. Kapid changes in weather (such as heavy rain followed
by blistering heat), excessive dampness, snow, and ice tend to cause
corrosion of exposed surfaces and parts. Without frequent inspec
tions and the necessary performance of tightening, cleaning, and lu
bricating operations, equipment becomes undependable and subject
to break-down when the equipment is most needed.
b. Feel—
The feel operation is used most often to check rotating machinery,
such as blower motors, drive motors, etc., and to determine if electri
cal connections, bushings, etc., are overheated. Feeling indicates the
need for lubrication or the existence of similar types of defects requir
ing correction. The maintenance man must become familiar with the
normal operating temperatures of motors, etc., in order to recognize
signs of overheating.
NOTE: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE FEEL OPERATION BE PER
FORMED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AFTER SHUT-DOWN AND ALWAYS

BEFORE ANY OTHER MAINTENANCE IS DONE.
c. Inspect. —
Inspection is the most important operation in the preventive main
tenance program. A careless observer will overlook the evidences of
minor trouble. Although these defects may not interfere with the
performance of the equipment, valuable time and effort can be saved
if they are corrected before they lead to major break-downs. Make
every effort to become thoroughly familiar with the indications of
normal functioning, in order to be able to recognize the signs of a
defective set. Inspection consists of carefully observing all parts of
AGO 372C
the equipment, noticing their color, placement, state of cleanliness, etc.
Inspect for the following conditions:
(1) Overheating, as indicated by discoloration, blistering, or
bulging of the parts or surface of the container; leakage of insulating
compounds ; and oxidation of metal contact surfaces.
(2) Placement, by observing that all leads and cabling are in
their original positions.
(3) Cleanliness, by carefully examining all recesses in the
units for accumulation of dust, especially between connecting ter
minals. Parts, connections, and joints should be free of dust, corro
sion, and other foreign matter. In tropical and high-humidity loca
tions, look for fungus growth and mildew.
(4) Tightness, by testing any connection or mounting which
appears to be loose.
d. Tighten, Clean, and Adjust. —
These operations are self-explanatory. Specific procedures to be
followed in performing them are given wherever necessary through
out this manual.
CAUTION: SCREWS, BOLTS, AND NUTS SHOULD NOT
BE TIGHTENED CARELESSLY. FITTINGS TIGHTENED
BEYOND THE PRESSURE FOR WHICH THEY ARE DE
SIGNED WILL BE DAMAGED OR BROKEN.
Whenever a loose connection is tightened, it should be moisture-
proofed and fungiproofed again by applying the varnish with a
small brush. See paragraph 39.1 for details of moistureproofing and
fungiproofmg.
e. Lubricate. —
Lubrication refers to the application of grease or oil to the bear
ings of motors or other rotating shafts. It may also mean the appli
cation of a light oil to door hinges or other sliding surfaces on the

equipment.
29.3. Preparation for Preventive Maintenance (Added). —
a. General. —
-For ease and efficiency of performance, preventive maintenance on
Radio Receivers BC-312-(*)» BC-312-(*) X, BC-342-(*), BC-314-
(*), and BC-344-(*) will be broken down into operations that can
be performed at different time intervals. In this section, the pre
ventive maintenance work to be performed on the radio set at speci
fied time intervals is broken down into units of work called items.
The general techniques involved and the application of the FITCAL
operations in performing preventive maintenance on individual parts
10 AGO 372C
are discussed in paragraph 29.2. These general instructions are not
repeated in this paragraph. When performing preventive main
tenance, refer to paragraph 29.2 if more information is required for
the items in following paragraphs. All work is to be performed with
the power removed from the equipment. After preventive mainte
nance has been performed on a given day, the equipment should be
put into operation and checked for satisfactory performance.
6. Common Materials Needed. —
The following materials will be needed in performing preventive
maintenance :
Common hand tools (TE-41 or equivalent).

Camel's-hair brush.
Clean cloth.
#0000 sandpaper.
Crocus cloth.

39.1. Moistureproofing and Fungiproofing (Added). —
a. General. —
The operation of Signal Corps equipment in tropical areas where
temperature and relative humidity are extremely high requires special
attention. The following items represent problems which may be
encountered in operation :
(1) Resistors, capacitors, coils, chokes, transformer windings,
etc., fail.
(2) Electrolytic action takes place in resistors, coils, chokes,
transformer windings, etc., causing eventual break-down.
(3) Hook-up wire and cable insulation break-down. Fungus
growth accelerates deterioration.
(4) Moisture forms electrical leakage paths on terminal boards
and insulating strips, causing flash-overs and crosstalk.
b. Treatment. —
A moistureproofing and fungiproofing treatment has been devised
which, if properly applied, provides a reasonable degree of protection
against fungus growth, insects, corrosion, salt spray, and moisture.
This treatment involves the use of a moisture- and fungi-resistant var
nish applied with a spray gun or brush. Refer to TB SIG 13, Mois
tureproofing and Fungiproonng Signal Corps Equipment, for a de
tailed description of the varnish-spray method of moistureproofing
and fungiproofing.
CAUTION: VARNISH SPRAY MAY HAVE TOXIC EF

List of Main Components 7
1. General. —
The radio receivers described in this manual are of the super
heterodyne type. They are built ruggedly and are suitable for vehic
ular, portable, or fixed operation. They are highly sensitive and
selective and are designed for the reception of voice, tone, or con
tinuous-wave signals from transmitting stations using amplitude-
type modulation. These receivers are identical in size, in general
external and internal construction and appearance, and in the
fundamental arrangement of their electrical circuits. They are
divided into two main groups. The first covers the frequency range
of 1500 to 18000 kilocycles in six bands; the second covers the
range from 150 to 1500 kilocycles in four bands. For purposes of
identification in this manual, the first group is referred to as the
high-frequency (h-f) group, and the second group as the medium-
frequency group (m-f ) . Within each group are models for opera
tion on either storage batteries or alternating-current power sources.
2. Differences In Models. —
It is advisable for all using personnel to become thor
a.
oughly familiar with the differences in the various models. Much
confusion in the requisitioning of complete receivers and replace
ment parts for them arises from the fact that more than a dozen
similar type numbers are listed for receivers that look alike. The
following description is organized according to the frequency
ranges and power requirements mentioned in paragraph 1. (See Sec.
Ill for a detailed description of the actual circuits.)
b. It will that some identical receivers within a
be noted
series have type numbers with different suffix letters. These num
bers identify equipment made to the same specifications but on
different orders, either by one or several manufacturers.

d. Throughout this manual, where descriptive matter

applies equally to all receivers of a series, the suffix letter is
omitted and the symbol (*) is used instead; for example, Radio
Receiver BC-312-(*). The full type number is used when a
particular model must be identified for any reason. The table on
page 6 shows the difference between models.
3. Construction. —
The cabinet, the panel, and the inside chassis are made of metal.
The internal parts of the receiver are thoroughly shielded by means
of metal inclosures as shown in figure 4. The various compart
ments and cans are clearly marked and are easily identified. Alum
inum was used in early models but substitutes have been used in
later models. The outside surfaces of the cabinet and the front of
the panel are finished in black. The whole panel -chassis assembly
slides in and out of the cabinet readily and is locked firmly in
place by means of five knurled locking screws of the captive type.
Convenient handles are located on the vertical sides of the panel.
The over-all dimensions of the receivers are 1 8 by 9 by inches.

1,
and 3)
consists of metal -alloy plate provided with holes for fastening
a
in vehicle or on
fixed table or bench. Mounted on soft rubber
a
pads in the four corners of the plate are short studs which engage
holes in the bottom of the receiver cabinet. The latter held on
is
the mounting by slides, which can be pulled forward to release the

cabinet. The mounting minimizes the transmission of vibration
and shock to the receiver.
Weight and Dimensions. —

6. Frequency Ranges.—
a. High Frequency Models. —
In these models, the frequency range of 1500 to 18000 kilo
cycles is covered in six bands, which are selected by means of a
positive, rotary switch on the front panel marked BAND
CHANGE.
The bands are as follows:
Band Frequency range (kc)

A 1500 - 3000
B 3000 - 5000
C -5000 - 8000
D 8000 - 11000
E 11000 - 14000
F 14000 - 18000
b. Medium Frequency Models. —

In these models, the frequency range of 150 to 1500 kilocycles
is covered in four bands, as follows:
Band Frequency range (kc)

A 150 - 260
B 260 - 450
C 450 - 820
D 820 - 1500
c. Overlap. —
There is sufficient overlap between bands to provide complete

coverage.
d. Tuning Dial. —
The band switch is geared to
shutter on the tuning dial marked
a
FREQUENCY in such a manner that a calibrated scale appears in

the dial window for each position of the band switch marked
BAND CHANGE. In addition, a uniform scale of 45 divisions re
mains in view at all times at the bottom of the tuning dial. The
tuning capacitor and the dial are geared so that the former goes
from one extreme position to the other in 12 revolutions of the
knob marked FAST TUNING. Also a part of the tuning gear
system is a smaller knob marked VERNIER,
which has a calibrated
scale of 1 00 divisions. One revolution of this knob is equal to one
of the 45 divisions on the uniform scale of the tuning dial. Very
accurate records can therefore be kept of the dial settings for par
ticular frequencies or stations.

pushed in all the way before tightening the knurled ring. In Re

ceivers BC-342-(*) and BC-344-(*) insert the power plug into
the receptacle of the rectifier at the back of the cabinet. This recept
acle normally is covered with a plate held .by two screws. The
plate can be removed and refastened to the case next to the power
receptacle by means of the two screws. Insert a headset plug in
either of the jacks marked PHONES.
b. Final Check. —
Before applying power to the receiver, carefully check cording
and wiring and study paragraph 11, OPERATION.
10. Preparation For Use. —

a. . Pilot Lamps. —
In Receivers BC- 31 2- (*), BC-342-(*), BC-314-(*) and BC-
344- (*) install two pilot Lamps LM-27 in the sockets underneath
the reflector. In Receiver BC-312-(*)X install two pilot Lamps
LM-42 in the sockets. The reflector is part of the assembly on
the front panel of the receivers which contains the dial window.
The two pilot lamps may be inspected after removing the four
screws holding the reflector to the front panel.
b. Vacuum Tubes. —
( 1) These receivers are ordinarily issued with tested radio
tubes installed. The tubes should not be interchanged or removed
unless they become defective; changing them may cause misalign
ment. Except for the radio-frequency and continuous-wave oscil
lator, all tube sockets are accessible when the receiver chassis has
been removed from its cabinet.

(2) To reach the continuous-wave oscillator tube socket,
remove the screw at the top of the continuous-wave oscillator com
partment and the screw about halfway down the center of the
right side of the oscillator compartment. Loosen, but do not re
move, the screw at the bottom of the rear and halfway down the
left side of this compartment. Lift off the compartment cover.
(3) To reach the tube socket in the radio-frequency oscil
lator compartment, loosen the two screws near the top of the
right side of this compartment, then lift the hinged cover occupy
ing the rear third of the top of this compartment. Check the tubes
with tube checker such as the one in the Test Set 1-56 series.
c. Line Voltage Compensation (On BC-342-(*) and BC-
344- (*) only).-

so that the terminal strip near the rectifier is accessible. If prevail

ing line voltage, measured across terminals 1 and 4 of the terminal
strip, is below 1 1 5 volts, change the input lead to the rectifier
unit. Loosen, but do not remove, the two screws on opposite sides
of the rectifier cover; remove the two screws at the outside edge
of the rectifier unit, and remove the cover. This will expose the
rectifier terminal board and the line-voltage compensating taps.
Unsolder wire attached to the compensating tap marked 1 20V,
and solder it to that marked 110V. After making this change,
replace rectifier cover.
d. Fuses. —
The fuses marked LAMPS and DYN-FIL on the front panel of
Radio Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-314-(*), BC-342-(*) and
BC-344-(*) are Fuses FU-21-A. Check for continuity and for
proper rating (10 amperes) before installation. Fuses FU-25-A
are used in these positions in Receiver BC-312-(*)X only and are
rated at 5 amperes. Fuse FU-27, in Rectifier RA-20 of Receivers
BC-342-C*) and BC-344-(*), can be reached from the rear of
the receiver cabinet. Check for continuity and for proper rating
(2 amperes) . »
11. Operation. —
a. Panel Controls. —
( 1Radio Frequency Tuning. —
)
On high frequency models the main tuning dial is of the flat
disk type carrying seven scales, six of which are calibrated in
kilocycles and one in 45 equal divisions. On medium-frequency

models, the main tuning dial is also of the flat disk type but carries
five scales, four of which are calibrated in kilocycles and one cali
brated in 45 equal divisions. The dials in these radio receivers can
be revolved through an arc of about 300° by either of two controls
on the front panel. FAST TUNING control provides for a 25
to 1 reduction. VERNIER control provides for a 90 to 1 reduction
and carries a scale marked with 100 equal divisions which can be
used to Interpolate the 0-45 scale of the main dial. Two dial
lights illuminate the main dial. A masking plate rotates with the
band changing mechanism and covers all portions of the dial,
except the 0-45 scale and the scale of the particular frequency
band selected.
(2) Band Changing. —
The BAND CHANGE control operates switches located in
17
TM 11-850
11 SIGNAL CORPS
the radio- frequency oscillator, first radio-frequency stage, second

radio- frequency stage, and first detector (mixer) stage compart
ments. It also operates the masking plate mentioned above. All
unused coils are short-circuited.
(3) OFF-MVC-AVC Switch

The OFF-MVC-AVC switch permits the use of manual or
automatic volume control. This control also serves as the power
ON-OFF switch when the control switch In Rectifier RA-20 of
Receivers BC-342- (*) and BC-344- (*) is on, and is the only ON-
OFF switch on Receivers BC-312-(*). BC-312-(*)X. and BC-
314-(*).
(4) Antenna Alignment Control. —
The ALIGN INPUT control permits tuning a 50 to 200-^f
antenna to resonance in high-frequency models. In medium-fre
quency models, it permits tuning a 250 to 1000-^/if antenna
to resonance.
(5) Continuous-wave Oscillator Control. —
The CW-OSC OFF-ON switch controls the use of the continu
ous-wave oscillator. Another control, CW-OSC ADJUST, allows-
variation in the pitch of the received signal.
(6) Crystal Filter Control. —
CRYSTAL PHASING control which permits the use of a
crystal filter is incorporated in Receivers BC-342- (*), BC-312
to BC-312-J inclusive, and BC-312-HX. The filter is in the cir
cuit at all settings of this control except at OUT. The purpose
of the crystal filter is to increase the selectivity of the receiver.

(7) Volume Control. —

The VOL knob operates a dual potentiometer for control of
volume. Using MVC it controls the receiver sensitivity; using
AVC it controls audio-frequency gaifi.
(8) Input Binding Posts. —
In order to connect the antenna to the receiver, all sets have two
antenna binding posts, one marked SIG ANT and the other ALT
SIG ANT, except for BC-312 which has three, SIG ANT, ALT
SIG ANT, and NOISE ANT. One of these posts, SIG ANT, is
shielded and is used when the antenna is connected to the receiver
through a shield lead. All sets have a ground post marked GND.
This should be connected to a good ground (six foot metal stake
driven in damp earth or to frame of vehicle in which set is install
ed) .
18
TM 11-850
BC-342-(*), BC-314-(*) AND BC-344-C)
(9) Pilot Lamp Dimmer Control. —

Receivers BC-312-L-M-N and NX have controls which adjust
the brightness of the pilot lamps LM-27 and LM-42. These con
trols are located in the same position as the CRYSTAL PHASING
control on the panel of receivers equipped with the crystal filter.
Turning this knob (marked DIAL LIGHT) to the left dims the
pilot lamps.
(10) Send-receiue Switch. —
When the receivers are used with a transmitter and associated
cording (as in Radio Set SCR-245- series), the REC-SEND
switch at SEND positionconnects a relay through the key jack.
This relay short circuits the antenna and grid of the first audio
tube to ground when the key is depressed. (In Receivers BC-312 to
BC-312-J, BC-342 to BC-342-J and in Receivers BC-314 to
BC-314-D and BC-344 the audio grid is not grounded.)
(11) Fuses. —
Fuse holders are mounted on the front panel
that the fuses so
may be easily replaced. The LAMPS fuse protects the circuit of
the dial lamps. The DYN-FIL fuse protects the circuit supplying
the filaments and power to the dynamotor. The SPARE fuse re
places either of the other two fuses when necessary. In addition
to the above, there is a 2-ampere, 250-volt fuse in Rectifier RA-
20, which can be reached from the rear of the cabinet in Receivers
BC-342- (*) and BC-344- (*).
PdnelJacks. —
(12)
The jacks on the front panel are as follows:
(a) KEY - To connect a telegraph key when the receiver
is used with a transmitter (as in Radio Set SCR-245- series).
(6) MICRO - To connect microphone for voice trans
a
mission when the receiver is used with a transmitter (as in Radio

Set SCR-245- series).
(c) SPEAKER 2D AUDIO - To connect a permanent-
magnet type loudspeaker.
(rf) PHONES 2D AUDIO - To use a headset with the

receiver, insert a headset plug into jack.
(e) PHONES 2D AUDIO - This jack is connected in

parallel with the jack above it and is used for the same purpose.
NOTE: In BC-312 to and including BC-312-J, BC-342 to
sets
and including BC-342-J, BC-3 1 4 to BC-3 1 4-D and BC-344, this
19
TM 11-850
11 SIGNAL CORPS
jack is marked PHONES 1ST AUDIO and connects headsets to

output on first audio stage. In later model receivers of all types,
provisions have been made for connecting headsets having an im
pedance of either 4000 or 250 ohms by a wiring change to the
phone jacks. This change in wiring is to be made by operating
personnel. A reversible tag indicates the correct output impedance.
(13) Power Socket. —

For Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-312-(*)X, and BC-314-(*)
connections to the d-c source of the proper potential are made as
follows: Connect the proper power cord terminated by Plug PL-
1 14 to Socket SO-94, mounted on the front panel of the receiver.
Push the plug all the way into the socket before tightening the
knurled ring. (On Receivers BC-342-(*) and BC-344-(*) this
socket has a cap which may be removed if necessary. For power
connections of these receivers, see paragraph llj.)
(14) Panel Locks. —
Panel locks provided to secure the chassis of the receivers in
are
the cabinet. By turning the five straight knurled knobs clockwise,
the receiver panel is pressed firmly against the rubber gasket. To
remove from its cabinet, these lock-knobs
the receiver must be
turned counter-clockwise as far as they will go.
(15) Noise-balancing Control. —
(a) In Receivers BC-312, BC-312-A, BC-312-C, BC-342,
and BC-342-C, a noise-balancing system is provided. This oper
ates only on the 1500-3000 and 3000-5000 kilocycle bands.

It intended to reduce ignition interference when the receiver is
is
part of an installation in a vehicle; it is not used when the receiver
is part of a portable or semifixed radio set. This system is rather
critical in adjustment. On later. procurements the noise balancing
feature has been eliminated.
(6) If the receiver is in a vehicle and ignition noise is trouble

some, proceed as follows: Turn the BAND CHANGE knob to
of the above-mentioned frequency ranges. With the regular
either
set antennaconnected, but with the NOISE ANT post idle, turn
the VOL knob to about 6. Adjust the control marked NOISE
ADJUST for maximum noise output. Disconnect the signal an
tenna. A special noise antenna is required. This consists merely of
a length of shielded wire. Connect one end to the NOISE ANT
post on the receiver. Leave the other end open with one foot of
*he shielding removed and hang it in the engine compartment of
20
TM 11-850
BC-342-C), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
the vehiclewithout touching any live part of the ignition wiring.

Adjust the NOISE BALANCE control for maximum noise out
put. This should be equal to the noise received with the signal
antenna. If the noise outputs are not equal, relocate the pick-up
end of the noise antenna until they are. Connect both antennas.
Adjust the NOISE ADJUST and NOISE BALANCE controls
until the minimum noise output is secured.
(c) If repeated trials with the noise antenna in different loca
tions do not effect a noticeable reduction of noise, remove the
antenna and discontinue the experiments.
b. Source of Power. —
(1) In Receivers BC-312-(*) and BC-314-(*) a 12 to 14
volt battery is required. Receivers BC-312-(*)X requires a 24 to
28 volt battery. A power cord fitted with Plug PL-1 14 is required.
Plug PL-1 14 fits into panel Socket SO-94 (SO,), and the cord
must be long enough to reach the battery. The only connections
that must be made are to the heavy prongs of the plug-socket
combination; the other prongs are used for control purposes. When
the receiver is part of radio set installation, consult the cording
diagram of the particular radio set to determine the exact hook-up.
This will be found in the technical manual or instruction book
for the set. In the case of the a-c receivers (BC-342-(*) and BC-
344-(*) ), connect the a-c cord to a 110-volt outlet. Disregard
the Socket SO-94 (SOi) since in a-c receivers its connections are
used only for control purposes.
(2) The a-c receivers of this series are designed to operate on

110- to 120-volt, 50 to 60 cycle, a-c power. They will be dam

aged if used on higher voltages or on 2 5 -cycle, a-c power. The
primary of the power transformer of Rectifier RA-20 has taps
for 110 and 120 volts. Check the line voltage with an a-c volt
meter. Use the 1 1 0 volt tap for voltages below 115 volts and
the 1 20 volt tap for voltages above 1 1 5 volts. Seldom is trouble
found from excessively high voltages; usually the voltage is likely
to be low, especially at night. If the voltage does run consis
tently high, connect a dropping variable resistor in the line and
adjust it to the correct value. A suitable unit for this purpose is
a 250 ohm, 200 watt, ceramic core wire wound resistor.
(3) The a-c receivers cannot be used on 2 5 -cycle power, gen

erated in some large industrial areas and in the Panama Canal Zone.
NOTE: Be certain that the correct source of power of proper
voltage is applied to the receiver being used.

c. To Turn On Receivers. —
(1) To turn on power in Receivers BC-342-(*) and BC-
344- (*) , plug in the power cord and throw the a-c power switch
at the rear of the cabinet to ON. Now turn the OFF-MVC-AVC
switch to either MVC or AVC.
(2) To turn on power in Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-312-
(*)X. and BC-314-C*) turn OFF-MVC-AVC switch to either
MVC or AVC.
d. To Turn Off Receivers. —
Turn the OFF-MVC-AVC switch to OFF.
e. To Select Different Modes of Operation. —
With receivers operating, use the following procedure:
(1) Continuous-wave (c-w) . —
Turn the OFF-MVC-AVC switch to MVC. Throw the CW-
OSC OFF-ON switch to ON.
(2) Tone or Voice. —
Tprn the OFF-MVC-AVC switch to AVC. Throw the CW-
OSC OFF-ON switch to OFF.
f. To Tune in a Signal.—
Use BAND CHANGE control to select the frequency band
which covers the frequency of the signal to be received. Using
FAST TUNING control, tune to the approximate frequency of
the signal. Adjust ALIGN INPUT control for maximum noise
level. This assures maximum receiver sensitivity. Use the control
marked VERNIER to tune in the signal. Adjust VOL control for

desired volume level. Turning this control to the right increases
the volume; placing OFF-MVC-AVC switch at AVC tends to
maintain volume at a constant level as determined by the setting
of VOL. AVC is used primarily for reception of voice signals. The
proper setting of this control is therefore determined by the char
acter of the signal received.
g. To Change Frequency. —•
To frequencies it is necessary to tune to the new fre
change
quency in the manner described in paragraph I If. Advance VOL
•control and rotate the tuning dial slowly to avoid passing over a
weak signal without hearing it.
h. To Control Sensitivity. —
The sensitivity of the receiver is affected by controls ALIGN
22
TM 11-850
BC-342-C), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
INPUT, VOL., CRYSTAL PHASING (on receivers so equip

ped) , and OFF-MVC-AVC. To obtain maximum sensitivity,
adjust the control marked ALIGN INPUT to secure the maxi
mum noise output from the receiver, turn the control marked VOL
as far as possible to the right. When reception is particularly noisy,
weak signals may be read more easily if VOL is rotated to a lower
setting. CRYSTAL PHASING control (on receivers so equipped)
should be at OUT and OFF-MVC-AVC control at MVC.
i. To Control Selectivity. —
• Receivers BC-312 to BC-312-J and BC-342-(*) use a crystal
filter in the intermediate-frequency amplifier circuit. Turn the
CRYSTAL PHASING control away from OUT to increase the
selectivity of the receiver. (The operation of this control also de
creases sensitivity.) The CRYSTAL PHASING control is intend
ed for use primarily in reception of continuous-wave signals. When
tuning voice signals, it may increase the selectivity of the receiver
to such a degree as to distort them. However, in receiving a voice
signal with very heavy background noise, or a voice signal which
is very much distorted, it may be found that proper operation of
CRYSTAL PHASING control will improve the clarity of the
signal. Experiment with the use of this control on various types of
signals in order to determine what may be expected from its
bperation.
j. To Change The Pitch Of A Continuous-wave Signal. —
The pitch of a continuous-wave
signal may be changed either
by operating VERNIER control (which changes the tuning of

the receiver) or by operating the CW-OSC ADJUST control.
The latter control permits a change in pitch of the signal without
changing the tuning of the receiver. Once a signal has been satis
factorily tuned in, it will usually be better to make desired changes
in signal pitch by means of CW-OSC ADJUST control.
k. Power Connection and Control of Receivers BC-342-(*)
ana BC-344-(*).—
(1) A-C Power Socket. —
A-C power connections are made to a receptacle located in Rec
tifier RA-20 which is accessible from the rear of the receiver chassis.
(2) A-C Power Switch —

This switch is located in Rectifier RA-20 and is accessible from
the rear of the receiver. It controls the power input to the receiver.

13. Field Maintenance.—

Servicing this equipment in the field consists, almost entirely,
of the replacing of tubes, pilot light bulbs and fuses, and making
minor' repairs. Alignment and major adjustment or repair will be
done only by authorized Signal Corps repair units of trained per
sonnel, who are adequately supplied with the necessary tools and

Receivers BC-3 1 2- (*) , BC-3 1 2- (*) X, BC-3 14- (*) , BC-342-
(*) and BC-344-(*) are of the multi-band, integral-coil, super
heterodyne type. Metal tubes are used throughout, although "GT"
type tubes may be used in the first intermediate-frequency ampli
fier, second intermediate-frequency amplifier and second detector-
first audio amplifier stages.Figure 6 shows a functional circuit dia
gram of Receivers BC-312-(*). BC-312-(*)X and BC-342-
(*) ; figure 7 is a functional circuit diagram of Receivers BC-3 14-
(*) and BC-344-(*) showing the connections set up by the

BAND CHANGE switch to receive a signal in one particular fre

quency band. (The crystal filter circuit used in some models is
shown in figure 10.) In these functional diagrams the BAND
CHANGE switch and all coils and capacitors not essential to the
operation on that band are omitted for the sake of clarity. These
receivers employ two stages of pentode radio-frequency amplifi
cation, a first detector (pentagrid mixer) stage, and a separate
triode radio-frequency oscillator (H.F.O.) ; they also employ two
stages of pentode intermediate-frequency amplification; a duplex
diode-triode second detector, AVC rectifier, first stage of audio
frequency; a separate stage of pentode audio-frequency. A separate
triode oscillator (B.F.O.) is provided to produce a beat note for
continuous-wave reception.
The two radio-frequency stages provide selectivity and
high sensitivity and tend to reduce possible interference from

signals occuring at either the intermediate frequency or at the

image frequency. The mixer tube circuit with its associate oscillator
converts the frequency of the received signal to that at which the
intermediate-frequency amplifier is tuned. The intermediate-
frequency stages provide additional selectivity and amplification.
The second detector stage demodulates the amplified signal to
audibility. The audio-frequency stage provide additional amplifi
cation. The c-w oscillator, generates a signal slightly different in
frequency from that to which the intermediate-frequency stages
are tuned. When signals ate mixed they produce an audible

(*) and capacitor Q

in Receivers BC-314-(*) and BC-344-(*).
These capacitors permit tuning the antenna circuit to resonance
with an incoming signal. The neon lamp LMi, which is connected
82
TM 11-850
BC-342-(*), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-(*)
between the antenna and ground, normally has a very high resis
tance. When a certain threshold voltage is exceeded, the lamp be
comes a conductor by ionization further rise in volt
and prevents
age by by-passing the current to ground. It is used in this circuit to
protect the receivers from any excessive voltage which might be
applied to the antenna. In Receiver BC-312, BC-312-A, BC-312-
C, BC-342, and BC-342-C, a noise-suppression circuit is included
in the antenna circuit (figure 9.) In the noise-suppression circuit
there are three coils L25, L26, and L27, which when properly ad
justed, tend to reduce motor ignition interference. L25 is coupled
to L26, an electrostatic shield being provided to insure that this
coupling is entirely magnetic. This coupling is also adjustable. The
coupling between L26 and L27 is primarily electrostatic; the neces
sary magnetic shield is provided to insure that this type of coupling
is secured. The coupling between L26 and L27 is also adjustable.
An adjustment on the front panel marked NOISE BALANCE
controls the coupling between L26 and L25 and serves to adjust the
amount of noise introduced into the receiver circuits from the noise
antenna. The coupling between L27 and L26 is controlled by the
NOISE ADJUST control and determines the phase relationship
of the resultant noise voltage introduced into the receiver. The
coupling between L25 and L26 is adjusted to produce minimum
noise (not always zero) . L27 is then varied to reduce the noise to
zero, thereby insuring that the phase of the noise fed by the sep
arate antennas results in cancellation. L27 also acts as a radio-
frequency choke between antenna and ground.

17. Radio-Frequency Circuits (figs. 6 and 7). —

a. Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-312-(*)X and BC-342-(*).
In Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-312-(*)X, and BC-342-(*).
the circuits of the first radio-frequency
amplifier, second radio-
frequency amplifier, and mixer stages are very nearly identical.
They are designed to permit tuning with three sections of a four
gang capacitor. The screen voltages for the tubes in the aforemen
tioned stages are provided by voltage dividers connected between

fixed bias is derived from the drop across RI and R7. The variable
bias value is provided by means of a voltage divider formed by
R36 and variable resistor R35. These latter resistors are connected
between B+ and ground, so that a change in the value of R3S will
cause a change in the cathode bias. R3.-, is shorted to ground for
automatic volume control (AVC) operation so that the cathode
biases of the first radio- frequency and second radio-frequency tubes
are provided entirely by the drop across RI and R7. The cathode
bias for the mixer tube is derived from the drop across Ru and is
not variable. The injector grid bias for the mixer tube is secured
by means of resistors Ri3 and Rt4. All cathodes have their own
separate bypass capacitors, C29, Ca5 and C48. Capacitors C3S and
C45 from being impressed on the grids of

capacitor Cioi in the first radio-frequency stage to make the grid
circuit identical with those of the two succeeding stages. Coils

are the
first radio-frequency, second radio- frequency, and mixer stages
respectively. These tank inductances are tuned by a ganged capaci
tor consisting of C28, C34, and C46. In series with these sections
are three capacitors, C25, Cioo, and C38, across each of which is
placed a shorting switch, SW2, SW4, and SW^ respectively, oper
ating with the band change mechanism. These shorting switches
permit the series capacitors to be used in the three highest frequency
bands to obtain greater frequency spread on the dial, and short

them in the three lowest frequency bands. Trimmer capacitors

Ci, C7, and provided to permit individual alignment of
Q3 are
the three circuits. Radio-frequency blocking capacitors C32 and Csa
are used to prevent shorting the plate supplies of the first and
second radio-frequency tubes to ground. AVC circuits (par. 23 b)
contain resistor-capacitor network filters. Decoupling networks,
consisting of resistors and capacitors, are inserted in all plate supply
leads to remove any radio- frequency which might be fed back into
the power supply.

In Receivers BC-314-(*) and BC-344-(*) the first radio-fre

and R45 form these voltage dividers. Each screen is separately by
passed to ground by its own capacitor, either Co, C1S or C41). For
MVC operation, cathode bias for the two radio-frequency tubes
is partly fixed and partly variable. The fixed bias is derived from
the voltage drop across R2 and R8. The variable bias value is
provided by a voltage drop across R44 and variable resistor R3o.
Any change in the setting of R3o will change the bias applied to
the cathodes of these two tubes. R30 is shorted to ground for AVC
operation so that the cathode biases are provided entirely by the
drop across resistors R2 and R8. The cathode bias for the mixer
tube is derived from the drop across Ri5 and is not variable. The
injector grid bias for the mixer tube is secured by means of resistors
RH and RiS. Each cathode has its own cathode bypass capacitor
C8, C17 or C48. Coils Li, L5 and L6; and Li3 and Li4 are the
inductances for the grid and plate circuits of the first radio- fre
quency, second radio-frequency, and mixer stages. These tank
inductances are tuned by a ganged capacitor consisting of C7, Q«

each stage, decoupling resistors R<i and Rn are located in the B +

capacitors C76 and C8i. Also, all AVC circuits contain resistor-

The radio- frequency oscillator in Receivers BC-312-(*), BC-

312-(*)X and BC-342-(*) employs a modified Hartley circuit.
The tank circuit consists of an inductance LI?, which is tuned by
one of the ganged capacitor C82. Fixed capacitor Cw is
section
used in series with the tuning capacitor on the three highest fre
quency bands. Shorting switch SW8 is ganged with the shorting

the oscillator tank circuit so it will track with the other tuned

value. The oscillator plate is bypassed by C8s directly to ground

which forms the plate return to the radio- frequency grounded end
of the tank coil: C88 serves as a grid blocking capacitor and R42
as a grid bias resistor. The radio- frequency voltage occurring be
tween the cathode of the oscillator tube and ground is impressed
on the injector grid of the mixer tube (first detector) through the
coupling capacitor 047. The heterodyne action of the mixer and
oscillator on the received signal produces an output signal (at 470
kc, the intermediate frequency) which has the same modulation as
the signal received on the antenna.
b. Receivers BC-314-(*) and BC-344-(*).—

In Receivers BC-3 14- (*) and BC-344- (*) the radio-frequency
oscillator is of the plate feed-back type. The tank circuit
consists of transformer L2i and L22, fixed capacitor C28. and one
section of ganged capacitor C67. Trimmer capacitor C23 is used to
align the oscillator tank circuit so it will track with the other
tuned radio-frequency stages. Resistor Ri3 serves to reduce the plate
voltage supplied by the power supply to the proper value. Capaci
tor C72 is used to bypass the oscillator plate return to ground;
capacitor COG serves as the grid blocking capacitor, and resistor Rs»
as the grid bias resistor. The radio-frequency voltage impressed on
the injector grid of the mixer tube is secured from the oscillator
tank circuit. The heterodyne action of the mixer and oscillator on
the received signal produces an output signal (at 92.5 kc, the inter
mediate frequency) which has the same modulation as the signal

received on the antenna.

crystal filter is
312-J, BC-312-HX and BC-342-(*). The output of the mixer
stage is coupled to the grid circuit of the first intermediate- fre
quency stage through the first detector transformer LM Capacitor
C53 and the primary coil of the intermediate-frequency transfor
mer are wired in parallel to form a resonant circuit which is tuned
to 470 kc by an iron core within the transformer coil. The secon
dary of this transformer and both coils in the first intermediate-
frequency and second intermediate-frequency transformers, LSD
and LSO, are tuned in a similar manner. In the secondary side of
the first detector transformer L28, there is a bridge circuit consist

first intermediate-frequency tube through a blocking capacitor C52.

When the switch is open (the CRYSTAL PHASING control

turned away from OUT) , the signal is impressed on the grid of

the first intermediate-frequency tube through the crystal CX and
blocking capacitor C52. This crystal, which behaves as a sharply
tuned resonant circuit, resonates at the intermediate-frequency of
470 kc. The crystal with its holder is one element of a bridge
circuit also containing capacitors C94, C95 and C5i. Capacitor C51,
which is operated by the CRYSTAL PHASING knob, makes it
possible to adjust this bridge circuit so that the capacitance of the
crystal CX is balanced out and undesired signals which are close
to, and interfering with, the desired signal are discriminated
against. The control is referred to as CRYSTAL PHASING,
since its operation tunes the bridge circuit and consequently ad
justs the phase relations of the voltages and currents. The sharp
ness of resonance of this crystal bridge greatly increases the effective
selectivity of the receiver when the crystal is in the circuit.

resistor R52 provides a high impedance, d-c grid return for the first
intermediate-frequency amplifier tube and provides for the intro
duction of AVC voltage. The intermediate-frequency stages are
coupled to each other inductively by the first and second intermed

transformers form circuits which are made resonant to the inter
mediate-frequency by a capacitor in parallel with each winding.
These transformers are tuned by a movable iron core. Cathode bias
for the first intermediate-frequency amplifier tube is derived from
the voltage drop across Ri9 and the same voltage divider system as
for the first 'and second radio- frequency amplifier tubes. Cathode
bias for the second intermediate-frequency amplifier tube is secur
ed from the voltage drop across the resistor R24. The screen voltages

21. Second Detector and Audio Amplifier (figs. 6, 7, and

ID—
A duplex-diode triode is used as a second-detector- A VC- 1st
audio amplifier tube. One diode section serves as the second detec
tor. The other diode section provides AVC voltage. The triode
portion of the tube serves as the first audio-frequency amplifier.
In Receivers BC-312- (*) . BC-312-(*)X and BC-342-(*),
resistors R« and R3.» comprise the diode load resistance. In Radio
Receivers BC-314- (*) and BC-344- (*) , the load resistors are R28
and R29. Radio- frequency bypass capacitors C7i annd C72 in the
high-frequency receivers and C73 and C80 in the medium-frequency
receivers are used to filter any remaining radio frequency out of the
detector diode load circuit. Bias for the second detector, AVC,
first audio amplifier tube is secured by resistor R28 and bypassed
by capacitor C73 in the high-frequency receivers and by R37 and
C58 in the medium-frequency receivers. The grid of the first audio
frequency amplifier tube receives its excitation through coupling
Capacitor C8i for the high-frequency group and C64 in the medium-
frequency group of radio receivers in series with the MVC-AVC
switch arm. This excitation consists of the voltage drop across
the entire resistance of R34 (h-f group) or R21» (m-f group) for
MVC operation, and the drop across a section of the same resis
tance for AVC operation. The output of the first audio-frequency

amplifier tube is coupled by C76 (h-f group) or C43 (m-f group)
to the second audio-frequency amplifier tube grid. The primary
of transformer TI in the first audio-frequency amplifier tube
piate circuit acts as an impedance coupling element. The B+ is
bypassed to ground by capacitor C74 (h-f group) or C57 (m-f
group) to keep radio frequency out of the plate power supply.
Cathode bias for the second audio-frequency amplifier tube is pro
vided by the drop across the parallel-connected resistors R3i and
R54 in the high-frequency group and R33 and R52 in the medium-
frequency group. The resistors are bypassed by C98 (h-f group) or
C6o (m-f group) . The output of the first audio-frequency ampli

a. High-frequency Group (fig. 6). —
Amodified Hartley oscillator circuit is used. The tank circuit
of this oscillator consists of coil L3i and capacitors C84 and C85

conjunction with a grid bias resistor R43. The plate supply to this
oscillator tube is connected through voltage-dropping resistor R37-
Switch SWn in the plate supply lead permits turning the continu
ous-wave oscillator on or off at will. The radio-frequency plate

portion of the voltage drop across tank coil LSI is impressed on the
plate end of the second detector tank circuit through a low -pass
filter consisting of coil L3;*, resistor RSI, and capacitors Coe and
COT; and through the coupling capacitor C4i. The purpose of
this filter is to prevent the introduction of harmonics of the con
tinuous-wave oscillator frequency into the detector circuit of the
receiver.

A modified Hartley oscillator circuit is used in these radio re

ceivers. The tank circuit of the oscillator consists of coil L34 and
capacitors C82, C68, and C69 connected in parallel. Capacitor C7*
is the grid-blocking capacitor and resistor R39 is the grid bias re
sistor. Resistor R36 is the plate voltage-dropping resistor connected
in series with switch SW10, which permits switching the continu
ous-wave oscillator on or off. Capacitor C65 completes the radio-
frequency circuit from plate to ground. The radio-frequency volt
age appearing across coil L34 is injected into the second detector tube
through capacitor C44.

When operating on manual volume control (MVC) , the ca
thodes of the first and second radio-frequency amplifier tubes and
41

the first intermediate-frequency amplifier tube are returned to the

divider consisting of resistors R3.-, and R3S in the high-
voltage
group and resistors R30 and R44 in the medium-frequency
frequency
group. This voltage divider is connected between B + and ground
so that, by operating the VOL control on the front panel, the
grid bias on these tubes is changed, thus varying the amplification
of the tubes. In this mode of operation, the AVC bus is shorted
to ground, and that portion of the audio-frequency signal which
appears across R34 (h-f group) and RL.<i (m-f group) is available at
the input of the first audio-frequency amplifier tube.
b. Automatic Volume Control Action (figs. 6. 7 and 11). —
In AVC operation, the control grids of the first and second

radio-frequency amplifier tubes, the mixer tube, and the first and
second intermediate- frequency amplifier tubes are returned to
ground through the AVC diode resistor R3o (h-f group) and
resistor R32 (m-f group) . A change in voltage across this load
resistor affects the bias, thus changing the amplification of these
tubes. The AVC system is designed to bias these tubes more neg
atively as the signal increases, thus reducing their amplification
and tending to maintain a constant input to the second detector.
The AVC diode plate of the second detector tube is coupled
through C67 (h-f group) or C45 (m-f group) to the plate circuit
of the second intermediate-frequency stage, providing an intermed
iate-frequency voltage which is rectified by the AVC diode circuit.
Rectification takes place in the AVC diode circuit when the peak
value of the intermediate- frequency voltage impressed is greater

than the d-c voltage drop across the second detector bias resistor
in the cathode circuit of this tube. The magnitude of the AVC
voltage is therefore dependent upon the strength of the received
signal in excess of the voltage drop across the bias resistor.

In Receivers BC-31 2- (*), BC-314-(*), BC-342-(*) and BC-

ampeies at 12 volts. The rectifier Tube VT-97 is of the high-
vacuum, full-wave metal type. A filter is provided in the rectifier
supply which is made up of two 8-microfarad electrolytic capaci
tors and 14. 5 -henry, 85-milliarnpere choke coil. A bleeder resistor
RIO is connected directly across the output of the rectifier filter to
protect the filter capacitors. A 2-ampere fuse is placed in series
with the primary of the transformer T3 for overload protection.

29. Lubrication. —
a. General. —
The various gears and bearings of the receiver chassis are lub
ricated by the manufacturer with sufficient lubricant to last the
life of the equipment. Unless operated under abnormal conditions,
they should never require further lubrication. In the event that
such lubrication becomes necessary, petrolatum should be.used very
sparingly.
b. Dynamotors DM-17-A, DM-21-(*) and DM-21-CX.—

The bearings of these of the sealed, ball-bearing
dynamotors are
type, and are packed with grease at the time of manufacture. They
will require one drop of light lubricating oil at each bearing after
500 hours of operation. Any oil above this amount will do more
harm than good. To remove the cover of the dynamotor compart
ment, loosen the two knurled thumb screws on the left-hand side
(facing the rear of set) and the flat-head screws on the right-
hand side of the dynamotor.
30. Inspection. —
The receiver should thorough examination before
be given a
•each use and before being returned to storage. A careful inspection
should be carried out to make sure that the equipment is left in

good operating condition and thus ready for use at any time.
This inspection should include examination of the power cord
to see that the plug is securely fastened, and that it has not been
damaged. All accessible components should be examined and, if
•dirty, should be cleaned.

31. Tube Socket Voltage Measurements. —

Figures 24, 25 and 27 show tube socket voltage measure
a.
ments for high-frequency units, and figures 26 and 28 those for
medium-frequency units, made with Test Set 1-56- series.
These voltages are not critical, and considerable variation
may be expected from receiver to receiver. However,
if voltages greatly from those indicated, further tests
vary
should be made to locate the cause and remedy it. The
input voltage to the 12 to 14 volt units should be adjusted to
14 volts; in the 24 to 28 volt units to 28 volts; and in receivers
using 110 to 120 volt, 50 to 60 cycle alternating current, to
either 110 or 120 volts, depending on the adjustment described

in paragraph lOc. Socket voltages will vary depending on actual
input voltages.
32. Procedure In Case Of Failure. —
a. Failure of these receivers to operate properly may be due
to external causes, such as a disconnected or grounded antenna,
failure of the power source, or a damaged headset. Check all these
possibilities before removing the receiver chassis from the cabinet.
The receiver itself may now be checked by setting all controls for
maximum sensitivity and noting the noise level. Lack of normal
noise output, or no response when the antenna terminal is touched
with a metallic object, indicates trouble within the receiver. The
trouble, if actually within the receiver, will most frequently be
a blown-out fuse, a loose or defective tube, or a defective power
unit.

BC-342-C), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
b. One of the most frequent causes of trouble or poor results

in the receivers is a partly charged storage battery. Check terminal
voltage, level of the electrolyte and its specific gravity. Clean
terminals and see that they are tight. Cleanliness of the case should
be checked at least daily. (For technical data on storage batteries,
see TM 10-580 and TM 11-430.) In vehicular installations, in
addition to the above servicing, inspect the charging generator and

see that it delivers current to the battery when the engine is slightly
raced. Reversed polarity of battery connecting wires is another com

mon cause of trouble.
33. Locating Trouble. —
The following possible of trouble are suggested in the

causes
event that detailed examination of the receiver becomes necessary:
SYMPTOM CAUSE

34. Trouble Shooting. —

a. General. —
The simple tests described above will reveal the cause of the
trouble in most cases of inoperative receivers. In cases where they
do not, it is necessary to adopt a definite procedure. A competent
repair man can readily find the "dead" stage by starting at the
TM 11-8SO
BC-342-C), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
output end of the receiver and working progressively back toward

the antenna. A Signal Generator 1-72- (*), or equivalent, is used
as the signal source during the tracing process.
b. Checking Audio Amplifier. —

After the receiver and the signal generator warmed up,
have
turn the output switch of the latter so that a 400-cycle output
from the modulator section becomes available at the output cord.

Ground the shielded side of the cord directly to the chassis of the
receiver. Plug phones into 2nd audio phone jack. Connect the
"hot" end, by means of the test clip, to the triode plate of the
second-detector tube, and listen in the headphones. If a good signal
is heard, the final or second audio stage is operating satisfactorily.
To check the operation of the triode audio-amplifier or first audio
section of VT-88, clip the generator output to the center lug of
the outer volume-control potentiometer, with the receiver set for
automatic volume control, and turn volume control on full. The
signal should be louder than before.
c. Checking Second Detector.- —
Adjust the signal generator to give 470-kc7, 400-cycle modul
ated output. Connect the "hot" end to the signal diode plate of
VT-88 (pin No. 4). If the diode detector is operating, the 400-
cycle tone will be heard in the phones.
d. Checking Intermediate-frequency Amplifier. —
Adjust the signal generator for a modulated 470-kc7 output
Turn the receiver to manual volume control. Connect a 300-ohm

resistor in the "hot" output lead of the generator to act as a dummy
antenna. Remove the grid clip of the .second intermediate-frequency
tube and fasten the dummy antenna to the tube grid cap. If the
second intermediate-frequency stage is working, the tone will again
be heard in the headset. Use the minimum output from the gener
ator that gives a comfortable signal. Work back to the grid of the
first intermediate frequency tube, and then to the first detector.
When testing the latter, turn the CRYSTAL PHASING knob
(if the set has a crystal filter) to OUT. Reduce the output of the
generator as more stages come into action. Each time the genera
tor output is connected to an intermediate-frequency grid, rock the
frequency dial of the generator very slightly and note if the
.V.M:;:IO <)— 44 n 63
TM 11-850
34 SIGNAL CORPS
volume of the signal goes up. If maximum volume is obtained at

frequencies above or below 470 kc7. the adjusting screws of the in
termediate-frequency transformers probably have been moved.
Do not undertake realignment. This will be done after it has been
definitely determined that the circuit components themselves are
in good order.
e. Checking Radio-frequency Oscillator. —
( Check the plate voltage against the values shown in figures
1 )
24, 25, 26, 27 or 28. This oscillator is dependable and rarely gives
trouble. However, to be absolutely sure of the check, remove the
first detector tube from its socket and twist a bare end of an insul
ated wire, 2 to 3 feet long, around the injector grid pin of the tube.
Be careful not to short the bare end to another pin. This is pin
No. 5 counting clockwise from the key of the locating pin when
looking at the bottom of the tube. Reinsert the tube in its socket,
leaving off the grid cap, and place the wire on the bench near the
Frequency Meter SCR- 21 1- series. For each position of the receiver
band change switch, set the frequency meter to a frequency about
the center of that band. Turn the receiver tuning knob and listen
for heterodyne signals in the frequency meter. These indicate that
radio frequency oscillator output is present. Remove the wire and
replace the grid cap before proceeding.
(2) There is a quicker alternate method for checking the
radio frequency oscillator. With the oscillator Tube VT-65, in
the socket, tap the grid terminal with the point of a lead pencil.
The oscillator if
is functioning a popping noise is heard each time

the grid is tapped with a pencil point.

f. Checking Radio-frequency Amplifier. —
Replace the 300 ohm resistor by a 100 /tjuf capacitor. Leave on
the 400-cycle modulation. Adjust the generator to any frequency
falling within the tuning range of each position of the band switch.
Leave the grid clips in place, and connect the new dummy antenna
successively to the first detector, second radio-frequency, and first
radio-frequency grids, and to the antenna post. Vary the generator
or receiver tuning until a signal is heard in the headset, and use the
minimum generator output for a comfortable indication. If no
signal is heard with the signal injected at any tube, check the
components of the stage immediately following.
7Use 470 kc for all of the high-frequency receivers, und 92.5 kc for the
low-frequency models.

BC-342-(*), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
35. Repairs. —
a. General. —
Insert the tubes firmly all the way into their proper sockets
and make firm grid cap connections. The chassis should be secure
ly locked into its box by means of the five locking screws on the
front panel. Repair service of this equipment in the field consists,
almost entirely, of replacing tubes, pilot light bulbs, and fuses,
and making minor repairs. Alignment and major adjustment or
repair of these receivers are to be done only by authorized Signal
Corps repair units of trained personnel, supplied with the necessary
tools and instruments.
b. Cords. —
Should a cord be found defective, examine and repair the

connections to the plugs. If the cord is damaged internally, tem^
porary repairs, may be made, all joints being thoroughly insulated.
Install a new cord as soon as possible.
c. Headset.- — -
When a headset fails to operate properly, the trouble usually is

due to a defective headset cord or plug. If the damage is within
the phones proper, new headset must be secured and the defective
a
units shipped to the proper agency for repair.
DM-17-A, DM-21-(*) and DM-21-CX. —

d. Dynamotors
Normally, if these dynamotors are defective, they should be

replaced. The replacement of brushes, turning down of commu
tators, freeing of bearings, and all repairing of defective receiver
dynamotors is done at Signal Corps repair shops or at Signal
Corps radio sections at air depots. Only when a replacement dyna-
motor cannot be obtained, or when an emergency arises, are local
repairs permitted. When repairs are made locally, careful sanding
in of new brushes to fit the commutator, proper spri-ng adjustment
and a running-in period are necessary to insure quiet receiver oper
ation. If results following such local replacement of brushes are

unsatisfactory, return the dynamotor to a depot for overhauling.
Commutators that are not worn excessively may be cleaned by
using a fine grade of sandpaper (never use emery cloth) and/or
by wiping off thoroughly with carbon tetrachloride. If the bear
ings are not damaged but merely need freeing, add a drop of light
65
TM 11-850
35-37 SIGNAL CORPS
oil to each. Replace the dynamotor if the trouble is caused by an

open or short-circuited winding, scored commutators, or some
other serious defect.
e. Rectifier RA->Q. —
Rectifier RA-20 may appear to be defective or show a low-
voltage output because of a short circuit in the receiver. Disconnect
the high-voltage or B+ lead to the receiver at point 7 of the con
nection strip, and measure the rectifier output voltage. This should
be considerably higher than the normal voltage at the plate of the
tube, as given in paragraph 31. If the rectifier unit appears to be
defective, remove it for checking. Make individual checks of the
electrolytic capacitor, the filter choke, Fuse F3, Tube VT-97, and
the power transformer, if measurements indicate the power supply
to be at fault. If the rectifier is found defective, return it to an auth
orized Signal Corps repair station, together with the two support
ing brackets.
f. Other repairs. —
Repairs other than the foregoing will not be attempted by
using personnel unless specifically authorized by the provisions of
appendix C, Signal Corps General Catalog.

Unit Assembly. —
a. Replacement of Radio-frequency
Turn the BAND CHANGE knob to Band A and remove the set
screw in the switch shaft sleeve (see figures 34 and 35). Then
remove the single plug in the side of the r-f oscillator cover at
the end of the receiver. By means of long nose pliers, draw the
switch shaft through the hole. Remove the shield behind the tube
shelf. Remove the shield behind the coil boxes and remove both
round-head screws at the front, and the two spacer studs at the
rear corners of the tube shelf. Raise the tube shelf as far off the
mounting shelf as it will go. Make certain that the gang-tuning
capacitor is closed; then unsolder the connections to the radio-
frequency units and remove the screws which hold the units to the
mounting shelf. Tag each wire so it will be replaced correctly. The
unit may now be removed. When replacing the unit, be sure that
the switches in the unit are in position for Band A before replace-

ment. Be sure all connections are made correctly before resoldering

the wires.
b. Replacement of Radio-frequency Oscillator Unit Assembly.
Remove the screws holding the outer cover, which incloses the
upper and lower compartments. Then remove the outer cover.
Unsolder the four leads from the terminal panel below the tube
socket. Tag each wire so it will be replaced correctly. Remove the
four screws holding the unit to the bottom of the shield com
partment. The unit may now be withdrawn from the chassis
without removing the band switch shaft. When replacing the unit,
make sure the switches in the unit are in the same position as the
switch shaft.
c. Replacement of Rectifier RA-20 and Dynamotors DM-2J-

(*) and DM -21 -CX.—
Unsolder the connections to the power unit at the connection
strip and remove them in a group. The connections should be noted
or tagged so that they will be replaced correctly. Remove the two
screws adjacent to the 1st and 2nd intermediate-frequency tube
sockets which secure the two mounting-support posts at the back
of the power unit. Remove the two stud bolts which holds the
hinge sections together, or remove the six screws holding the power
unit hinges to the front panel.

a. Apparatus Set-up. —
Figure 40 shows a typical set-up for an alignment job. Note

«specially that the receiver is standing upright. In this position,
all the adjusting screws and controls are readily accessible. The
illustration shows the most usual combination of apparatus avail
able under field conditions, as listed in paragraph 39c.
b. Dynamotor or Rectifier Support. —

The primary adjusting of the three intermediate-fre
screws
quency transformers are on the under side of the chassis. In order
to reach them, it is necessary to remove one mounting stud of the
dynamotor or rectifier and to swing the latter up on its outer hinge.

d. Precautions Prior to Alignment. —

Before an attempt is made to align or calibrate a receiver, it is
essential that all components be operating satisfactorily. It is assum
ed that all the tubes have average constants. The receiver must be
warmed up for about an hour prior to alignment. This is to per
mit stabilization of the radio-frequency circuits and other circuit
elements. The signal generator and frequency meter also must have
about an hour warm-up before an alignment is attempted. In con
necting the receiver for alignment and calibration, be very careful
that the sensitive meter located in the signal generator is not short
ed to ground by the power supply employed in the receiver. Atten
uators and meters of certain signal generators burn out very easily if
improperly grounded. Check to ascertain that the same side of the
power line is grounded in both signal generator and receiver in the
case of the a-c operated receivers. Since no fuses are provided in
the output circuits of signal generators, it is impossible to provide
protection against this source of trouble. BE VERY CAREFUL
IN HANDLING THIS EQUIPMENT. The signal generator
must be placed as close to to enable the
the receiver as possible
use of short leads. Long leads
no useful purpose and often
serve
cause the equipment to operate erratically. Some of the alignment
screws for the i-f transformers cannot be reached unless the
dynamotor unit is removed. Instructions for the removal
of components are given in paragraph 396. Note the locking
arrangement on the i-f alignment screws. IT IS IMPERATIVE
THAT THE LOCKING NUT
BE RELEASED BEFORE THE

ADJUSTING SCREW IS TURNED. Be very careful when

manipulating the alignment screws.

(2) Radio-frequency capacitance markings. —
The trimmer capacitor adjustment screws, in addition to the

band letter markings, show the relative value of capacitance in
cluded in the circuit. A red dot is located on one side of the screw

driver slot in the end of the screw. The capacitor is of the air-
padded type composed of a stator and a rotor. The rotor can be
rotated through 360 degrees; at the completion of one revolution,
the initial capacitance value is repeated. When the receiver is set
ting in a normal position, the stator plates are located below
the center line (screw driver slot) . Capacitance is at a minimum
when the red dot is above the center line, and at a maximum when
the red dot is below the center line.
(3) Intermediate- frequency markings.- —

Each intermediate-frequency transformer is marked on top of
the container with its functional purpose. For Receivers BC-314-
(*) and BC-344-(*) the markings are: 1ST DET TRANS and
C-292, 1ST IF TRANS and C-293, and 2D IF TRANS and
C-294. An adjustment screw is located on the top of each trans
former. Adjustment screws on the under side of the chassis are for
1ST DET TRANS and 2D IF TRANS. There is no under side
adjustment for the 1ST IF TRANS. For Receivers BC-312-(*)1,
BC-312-(*)X1 and BC-342-(*) the markings are: 1ST DET
TRANS and C-2821, 1ST IF TRANS and C-283, and 2D IF
TRANS and C-284. Each of these transformers has a top and
bottom adjustment screw. The 1ST DET TRANS2 also contains
the crystal phasing circuit equipped with a crystal. For all types
of receivers, the adjustment screws on the intermediate-frequency
transformers vary the position of the iron cores as a means of
tuning. Each adjusting screw is locked by means of a lock nut.

(2) On bands, A, B, and C the radio-frequency oscillator

operates at a 470 kc above the radio-frequency signal
frequency
being received. For bands D, E, and F the radio-frequency oscillator
operates 470 kc below the radio-frequency signal being received.
(3) On bands A, B, and C set the radio-frequency oscilla

tor trimmer capacitors for the minimum capacitance for which the
radio- frequency oscillator can be peaked. Set the radio-frequency
oscillator trimmer of bands D, E, and F for the maximum capa-
tance for which the radio-frequency oscillator can be peaked. This
automatically avoids setting the radio-frequency oscillator at an
image frequency.
(4) Receivers BC-314-(*) and BC-344-(*) use an in

termediate-frequency of 92.5 kc. The radio-frequency alignment
frequencies for the different bands are:

frequency oscillator operates at a frequency 92.5 kc above the
radio-frequency signal being received.
(6) For Receivers BC-314-(*) and BC-344- (*). set the

radio-frequency oscillator trimmer capacitors for the minimum
capacitance that will peak the oscillator circuit.

g. Alignment Procedure. —
( 1 ) General. —
This alignment procedure applies to Radio Receivers BC-312-
(*). BC-312-(*)X, BC-314-(*), BC-342-(*) and BC-344-
(*). The following panel control settings are made before the
alignment is begun, and are left in these positions unless otherwise
stated:
89
TM 11-850
39 SIGNAL CORPS
fa) Set OFF-MVC-AVC switch to MVC.

(M Set CRYSTAL PHASING control to OUT (if
receiver is equipped with crystal) .
(c) Set CW-OSC OFF-ON switch to OFF (except

for CW-OSC alignment.)
(d) Set VOL control for maximum output.
(e) Plug output meter into PHONES 2D AUDIO.
(2) Calibration of Test Equipment. —

Frequency Meter Set SCR-211-(*) can be used to check the
frequency and stability of the signal generator used. This is done
by coupling (inductively or capacitively - not directly) the output
of the signal generator to the antenna of the frequency meter. Set
the signal generator at the test frequency to
adjust be used, and
the output so that a satisfactory heterodyne note is heard in the
phones which are plugged into the frequency meter. When this is
accomplished adjust the frequency meter for zero beat with the
signal generator. Check the frequency by reading the setting of the
frequency meter, and make the necessary readjustments of the sig
nal generator to keep it on frequency (using the frequency meter
as the standard) .
(3) Order of Stage Alignment. —

An over-all receiver alignment is accomplished by adjusting
the various stages in the following order:
(a') Second intermediate-frequency transformer

(6) First intermediate-frequency transformer
(c) First detector output transformer
(d) Continuous-wave oscillator
(e) Crystal filter (when employed in the receiver)
(f) Radio-frequency oscillator
(g) Grid circuit of the first detector
(/?) Grid circuit of the preceding radio-frequency stages
(i) Antenna alignment capacitors
(4) Intermediate-frequency Alignment. —
(a) With receiver controls set as instructed in paragraph 39g

(I) and the signal generator set for the intermediate frequency of
the receiver to be aligned, introduce the into the mixer
test signal
stage by connecting the signal generator output through a 300-
90
TM 11-850
BC-342-C), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
ohm resistor to the grid cap (which remains on the tube) of the
mixer Tube VT-87. The ground side of the signal generator out
put must be connected to the ground connection of the receiver.
Always use the lowest signal generator output for which a good
resonance indication can be obtained. Align the intermediate-
frequency transformer and working back toward and including
the 1st detector output transformer. Repeat the adjustments by
going through this sequence until the i-f circuits are perfectly
aligned, as indicated by maximum output meter reading. In the
event that some major repairs have been made in the i-f -circuits,
the latter may be so far out of alignment that this procedure cannot
be used. If so move the signal generator connection to the grid cap
of the second intermediate-frequency stage, without changing the
ground connection. Adjust the intermediate-frequency transformers
for maximum response, as indicated by the output meter.
If this circuit will not peak at the frequency specified, a
check must be made to determine the source of the trouble before
the alignment procedure can be continued. Make a circuit contin
uity test to determine whether or not the i-f transformer con
cerned is defective. After the 2d i-f stage has been peaked, con
nect the signal generator output to the grid cap of the 1st i-f tube.
Align this stage by proceeding as in the 2d i-f stage. Here again,
if the circuit will not peak at the specified frequency, the source of
trouble must be located before continuing. Move the signal gener
ator connection to the grid cap of the 1st detector tube. Use the
same procedure to align the 1st detector transformer. Go over all
the stages again and adjust for maximum output. The i-f ampli
fier stages then will be aligned, and a 1 50-microvolt signal from
the signal generator should produce an output signal of at least
1 0 milliwatts, with a noise component of not over 1 milliwatt.
If a signal generator which tunes to 92.5 is not available

use the following method of i-f alignment of BC-314-(*) and
BC-344-(*):
( 1 ) Set FREQUENCY dial of receiver to any frequency
of any band, for example — 200 kilocycles.
(2) Plug headset into frequency meter, and insert the end
of antenna lead from the frequency meter into the receiver oscil
lator compartment (open hinged cover) so that its end (no con
ductors exposed) lies close to the stator plates of the oscillator tun
ing capacitor section.
91
TM 11-850
39 SIGNAL CORPS
(3) Tune frequency meter to 92.5 kc above the frequency

at which the receiver dial is set for (if 200 kc, 200 + 92.5 or
292.5 kc), then slowly tune the frequency meter dial back and
forth, about 15 kc, until a varying beat frequency note is heard
in the phones. When zero beat is heard in the phones, cease tuning,
and note the point on the frequency meter dial at which zero beat
is heard. Consult the frequency meter calibration book for the
frequency. If the frequency obtained is not 92.5 kc more than the
frequency indicated by the receiver dial, adjust the receiver oscil
lator trimmer in small steps until a zero beat is heard in the fre
quency meter headset exactly 92.5 kc above the receiver dial setting.
(4) When trimmer is finallly adjusted to

the oscillator
the desired frequency, tighten the locknut
on this adjustment so
that it cannot change. Disconnect and turn "off" frequency meter.
Do not change receiver dial.
(5) Connect the 1-72- (*), through a 250 ^f capacitor

dummy antenna, to the receiver antenna post. Connect the output
meter to the receiver's (final) output jack.
(6) Set the dial of the signal generator to the same fre
quency as that indicated on the receiver dial (200 kc) . Use a
modulated signal from the signal generator, and align the i-f
transformers for peak output in the output meter as described in
paragraph 39g (4) (a) above.
(5) Adjustment of the Continuous-wave Oscillator. —

With the i-f circuit properly aligned, the c-w oscillator can
be adjusted. Set the CW-OSC OFF-ON switch to ON. Adjust
the signal generator for a c-w signal (Modulator turned off).
Set the arrow on the CW-OSC AJUST control to the horizontal
position. The trimmer capacitor of the continuous-"wave oscillator
is accessible through a hole in the front panel (located above CW-
OSC OFF-ON switch) after the slotted cap plug is removed. Vary
this capacitor until a heterodyne note, zero beat, and finally a
heterodyne note again are produced. Back up on the trimmer until
zero beat is obtained. Rotate the CW-OSC ADJUST control 90
degrees to the right, then back to the horizonal position again,
and then 90 degrees to the left. During this rotation the signal
should increase in pitch, decrease as the horizontal position is ap
proached, and then rise in pitch again as the control is rotated to
the left. Check the adjustment for beats between the continuous
92
TM 11-850
BC-342-C)t BC-314-C) AND BC-344-C)
wave oscillator and the radio-frequency oscillator by varying the

tuning of the receiver over
a wide range of frequencies. The audio
note should not change if the continuous-wave oscillator adjust
ment has been made properly.
(6) Alignment of the Radio -frequency Oscillator. —

Check the r-f oscillator alignment with the c-w oscillator turn
ed off and modulation applied to the signal generator (with the
signal generator output still connected to the grid of the first de
tector tube). Adjust the signal generator to the proper frequency
for the band being aligned. With the receiver set on the correspond
ing band, the trimmer capacitor of the r-f oscillator must be ad
justed until maximum response is obtained on the output meter.
There are two possible adjustments of the trimmer that will
produce identical output meter readings. One of these corresponds
to the image frequency, while the other is the desired frequency.
At this point it is impossible to tell whether the r-f oscillator is
above or below the r-f frequency unless it is checked by means of
the frequency meter. Such a check will also provide a means of
double-checking the intermediate frequency, since this should be
the difference between the signal generator reading and the reading
of the frequency meter. When the above operations are completed
for each of the bands using the specified alignment frequencies,
the receiver is ready for alignment of the radio-frequency stages.
The adjustment of the radio-frequency oscillator trimmer capac
itors is very critical and the slightest change in position of the trim
mers detunes the radio- frequency oscillator circuits. In the fiiTal

adjustment, rock the main tuning dial of the receiver back and
forth, and note the point of maximum output. If this test results in
good centering of the frequency markings behind the hair-line
indicator, the trimmer is properly adjusted. If, however, the max
imum output is obtained at a different frequency marking than
that of the signal generator, repeat the adjustment of the radio-
frequency oscillator trimmer until exact frequency agreement is
attained.
(7) Alignment of the Radio-frequency Stages. —
Remove the flat-head screws and shield plate that cover the r-f
amplifier coil trimmers. The signal generator output must be
connected to the grid cap of the 2d r-f tube through a 50 ja/if
capacitor for all receivers except the BC-314-(*) and BC-344-
93
TM 11-850
39 SIGNAL CORPS
(*) : for 250 /i/if capacitor.

these use a The grid circuit of the
1st detector must be aligned for maximum output. Then con
nect the signal generator output to the grid cap of the first
radio-frequency tube, and align the grid circuit of the 2d radio-
frequency stage for maximum output. Leave the caps on the
tubes whenever connecting the signal generator to them, and while
working on the trimmers for a particular band do not touch the
trimmer adjustments of other bands. Proceed with the alignment of
one band and work towards the 1st r-f stage grid circuit. Recheck
the overall r-f alignment before starting to align another band.
Be sure to use. low signal generator output.
(8) Alignment of the Antenna Stage —

With the ALIGN INPUT control set in the mid position
(arrow pointing up) , adjust the trimmer across the grid of the
first r-f stage for maximum output. This alignment must be
checked over the entire range. Perfect alignment over the entire
ranges of bands A and B is not possible in receivers of the BC-
312-(*), BC-312-(*)X, and BC-342-(*) types. In these cases
a compromise position of the antenna trimmer must be determined
by checking alignment over the band several times, and then choos
ing the setting at which best results are obtained.
(9) Crystal Filter Check. —
When the i-f and r-f circuits

are properly aligned, turn the
CRYSTAL PHASING
control from the OUT position and

adjust for minimum background noise. Set the signal generator

to an unmodulated signal. Turn the main dial sharply back and
forth across the band point for which the receiver is tuned to
receive the signal generator output. Under these conditions a musi
cal chirp will be heard. If the chirp is present this indicates that
the crystal is being excited by the varying i-f signal produced by
the above tuning operation. The effect will be more pronounced
for one direction of the main tuning dial than for the other.
After a careful alignment, a retrim of the r-f oscillator with the
signal generator output introduced into the receiver at the signal
antenna, will yield the maximum crystal sensitivity. This adjust
ment will be very critical for each of the six bands and care must
be taken that the previous alignment work is not lost. Do not
touch the radio-frequency or intermediate-frequency amplifier coil
trimmers or the main tuning dial during retrimming operations on

RADIO RECEIVERS BC-312-O, BC-312-C)X, 39
BC-342-(*), BC-314-C) AND BC-344-(*)
the radio-frequency oscillators. During the retrimming opera

tions the phasing adjustment must not be disturbed. When retrim
ming operations are complete, set the CRYSTAL PHASING con
trol to OUT, and check the signal sensitivity. There should be no
loss in sensitivity.
(10) Check of Final Alignment.- —
With the receiver aligned, the main tuning control

should be
varied throughout the band and the alignment checked for at least
three different frequency settings in the band. Satisfactory perform
ance will be obtained if the r-f oscillator is following the radio-
frequency stages correctly and producing a difference (or beat)

frequency equal to the intermediate frequency. In actual practice,
absolutely perfect tracking is never obtained. It is essential that the
receiver be checked throughout each band, and the circuits so com
pensated that optimum results are obtained. When a receiver is out
of alignment, the radio-frequency oscillator often may be adjusted
to the wrong side of the radio-frequency stages, in which case
tracking with the receiver and preceding stages is not possible.
Consequently, extreme care must be taken to see that the initial
radio-frequency oscillator alignment frequency is on the correct side
of the radio-frequency stages so that proper tracking wilt be pos
sible. The final check of correct alignment is the sensitivity and
selectivity of the receiver, after completion of all test. Receivers BC-
312-(*), BC-312-(*)X, and BC-342-(*) will be capable of
producing a 10-milliwatt output signal with a signal-to-noise ratio
of 4 to 1, with not more than a 5 -microvolt input at any fre

quency in the range of the receiver. Receivers BC-3 14- (*) and BC-
344- (*) will be able to produce a 10-milliwatt signal output with
a, signal-to-noise ratio of 4 to 1, with not more than a 10-micro-
volt input at any frequency within the range of the receiver.
h. Special Alignment Procedure for the Crystal Filter. —

Under the alignment conditions described in g above, the receiv
er sensitivity without the use of the crystal is at its maximum. Con
siderably less sensitivity than that indicated in paragraph 39g (10)

is obtained when the CRYSTAL PHASING control is set for
maximum crystal selectivity. In the event that maximum sensitiv
ity in conjunction with crystal selectivity is required, use the fol
lowing alignment procedure:
(1) Align the receiver as described in paragraph 39 g.
-44 7 9.R,
TM 11-850
39 SIGNAL CORPS
(2) Set the CRYSTAL PHASING control for minimum

background noise.
(3) Vary the signal generator frequency above and below

470 kc by means of the fine frequency control adjustment, so as
to bring the signal generator frequency to exact coincidence with
the natural frequency of the crystal at the above mentioned setting
of the phasing control.
(4) Readjust the top core trimmer screw (located at the

top of the 1st detector output transformer) for maximum output.
(5) Repeat the operations of (2) and (3) again. Do not

change the setting of the crystal phasing control during operations
Indicated in (2), (3), (4) and (5).
(6) The receiver now will have a considerably higher crystal

selectivity and sensitivity than before, but when the crystal oper
ation is removed, sensitivity will be slightly less.
