Properly lermed the heart of the net, vacuum tubes have kept pace with the speedy progress made by the radio receiver as a whole. Models of detecting and amplifying devices that appeared shortly before the days of broadcasting today would hardly be recognized as radio lubes. While the enrly Instruments were cumbersome, their delicacy required that they he carefully handled. Sometimes they erformed. but more often their life was short. Some of them contained a double filament one to he used in ease the other burned out. In addition some did not have a base, merely having protruding wires to be soldered to the wiring of the receiver. Rroudensting, which really gave the Impetus to radio to carry It to Its present! status, 'quickly brought rapid changes In the tultes. The current consumption of the earlier types wus heavy, being one ampere per tube. A three tube set then would draw as heavily from the storage battery as does the modern 12 tube outfit. . Filament . Changed. One of the first great changes was the design of a filament that would not require so much current. This model cut the consumption to one quarter aniere and has become the modern standard. With the changes in the design of the filament other Improvements were Incorporated, such as the replacement of the old type metal base with one made from bnkellte. Also the contact prongs at the bottom of the tube were lengthened to provide a better socket connection. Further efforts saw the production of special amplifiers and detectors. Included were the so called power tubes, which, with higher plate voltage, gave greater volume. The power tube Is Intended largely for use as an amplifier. In addition there have appeared improved detector tubes whose prlncip:. purpose Is greater senslv-ity- . with an Increase In volume. Consumes Leas Power.
