Receiving Radio Message (Principles of Radio - Part Two) Erpi Classroom Films Inc. Radio antenna described w/ animated diagrams showing aerial ground circuit. Transformer or tuning coil shown w/ primary coil causing magnetic field.

Animated diagrams showing positive & negative build up of electrons on condenser. 11:15:47 Oscillating current path shown changed to modulating current; reception & change back to oscillating. 11:16:24 Animated diagrams of crystal set shown w/ direct current thru crystal; earphone attached to circuit & current changing diaphragm to cause sounds through peaking of voice current. Condenser’s use to fill gaps from radio frequency variation. 11:18:50 Diagram showing steps in radio reception w/ electromagnetic waves striking air, corresponding oscillations set up in aerial ground circuit; tuning mechanism selects one radio frequency wave; the crystal changes the radio frequency current to a direct current; amplitude of this current is determined by audio frequency impressed on the carrier wave at the transmission station. Audio frequency current operates the earphones or speaker. 11:19:32 Boy listening to crystal receiving set w/ earphones; parts shown mounted on wooden board as simple receiver. Parts added & named.
