Times change and so does terminology. Some of the old terms were quite colorful and convey a sense of hands-on adventure in those early days of experimentation. You may not consider today\u2019s language as evocative, but just wait a few decades to see what future generations think!<\/p>\n

1) Which type<\/strong> of component was referred to as a \u201cgrid leak\u201d?
\na. Capacitor
\nb. Resistor
\nc. Inductor
\nd. This referred to a gassy vacuum tube<\/p>\n

2) If you used a \u201cbasket weave\u201d style<\/strong> in construction, what did you construct?
\na. Transmission line<\/strong>
\nb. Coil
\nc. Headphone covers
\nd. Detector<\/p>\n

3) What function was performed by a \u201cslop jar\u201d?
\na. Rectification
\nb. Modulation
\nc. Storing charge from a grid-leak
\nd. Filtration<\/p>\n

4. What was the earliest type<\/strong> of condenser?
\na. Tesla coil
\nb. Rheostat
\nc. Leyden jar
\nd. Voltaic pile<\/p>\n

5) What part of early stations was often constructed as a \u201ccage\u201d?
\na. Transmitter shield
\nb. Antenna
\nc. Entire shack
\nd. Power supply<\/p>\n

6) A \u201cgetter\u201d performed what function?
\na. Tuning tool
\nb. Gas adsorption
\nc. Filament rejuvenation
\nd. Connections to open-wire<\/strong> transmission line<\/strong><\/p>\n

7) What construction technique was (and still is!) called a \u201cWestern Union\u201d?
\na. Rack-and-panel enclosures
\nb. Breadboard and Fahnstock clips
\nc. Point-to-point
\nd. Wire splicing<\/p>\n

8) What does \u201cTRF\u201d stand for?
\na. Tuned Receive Feedback
\nb. Tuner-Rig-Feeder
\nc. Tuned Radio Frequency
\nd. Transmit-Receive Feeder<\/p>\n

9) What type<\/strong> of equipment was referred to as a \u201crush box\u201d?
\na. Receiver
\nb. Transmitter
\nc. Amplifier
\nd. Modulator<\/p>\n

10) Which of these is not a type<\/strong> of oscillator circuit?
\na. Hartley
\nb. Colpitts
\nc. Lorentz
\nd. Meissner<\/p>\n

Bonus — What did a \u201ctickler coil\u201d tickle?<\/p>\n

Answers<\/p>\n

1) b — Grid current through the resistor developed a self-biasing voltage.
\n2) b — The basket-weave style<\/strong> minimized inter-turn capacitance.
\n3) a — Early rectifiers used a somewhat-caustic electrolytic solution (the \u201cslop\u201d) in glass jars.
\n4) c — A Leyden jar is a simple capacitor that stores a sizeable amount of charge at high voltage!
\n5) b — A cage antenna consists of several parallel wires in a circular arrangement.
\n6) b — The getter was an unpowered vacuum tube element that captured unwanted gas<\/strong> molecules.
\n7) d — The telegraph system\u2019s standard splicing technique.
\n8) c — The TRF<\/strong> receiver<\/strong> required each amplifying stage to be tuned separately.
\n9) a — The rushing sound from a regenerative receiver<\/strong> on the edge of oscillation gave it the name.
\n10) c — All the others are different oscillator configurations.<\/p>\n

Bonus — In a regenerative receiver<\/strong> stage, a carefully adjusted tickler coil coupled some of the output signal back to the input, \u201ctickling\u201d it into near oscillation.<\/p>\n

one more just for fun<\/strong> – What was its when the old Hams said ” Setting here having an 807″….? <\/p>\n

The answer: The way I understand it, the term<\/strong> “let’s go have an 807” or “just sitting
\nhere reading the mail having an 807” comes from when tubes were referred to
\nas “bottles”, and of course beer<\/strong> was always in bottles, so the term<\/strong> “807”
\nfor “beer” stuck.<\/p>\n
