Introduction

yET again important progress in valve design Is

revealed in this new Marconi Catalogue.

Recent developments leading to greater Interest in the ultra short waves are reflected In the new trlode-hexode frequency changers and efficient h.f. pentodes, among which the novel diode combina-

tion is of special Interest.

We are always ready to assist users of Marconi valves in their radio circuit problems. on receipt of full details addressed to the Valve Department. Marconlphone Co. Ltd .• 210. Tottenham Court Road. London. W.1.

Marconi X21

2 volt Heptode

Marconi X21 is a 2 volt Heptode with a high value of Conversion Conductance combined with a minimum H.T. Battery consumption.

The Variable M u characteristic is so proportioned that adequate control is obtained with the usual value of A.V.C. voltage available. without risk of rectification or harmonic distortion. Using the X21 as a frequency changer. it becomes possible to construct a 3-6 valve superhet with A.V.C. for Battery operation.

Marconi A.C. Valves

THE growing interest in short waves is catered for in the Marconi range for 1935-36 by the introd uction of several new types.

First is the triode-hexode, an improved frequency changer which will operate efficiently up to television transmission frequencies.

Second are new radio frequency amplifying valves: the VMP4G with

Marconi X41 low grid-anode capacity, and the

Triode Hexode WD40, which is an entirely new type

of screened pentode with the grid taken to the top of the bulb and two diodes added at the lower end of the cathode.

New high slope output pentodes appear, and a general change to dometopped bulbs adds to the rigidity of many types.

If you have a problem connected with an A.C. receiver, and use or intend to use Marconi valves, let us help you.

MSP4 has an exceptionally high slope, combined with a high working impedance which is of value with efficient circuits such as are used increasingly in modern design. Normally the 7 pin base valve is recommended, as it enables the metal coating to be earthed directly, and provides a means of controlling the suppressor grid voltage.

Heptodes

Marconi X30 is a Heptode frequency changer with a high conversion conductance. The tetrode section has a Variable Mu characteristic so proportioned that rapid gain control is obtained with freedom from cross modulation. X32 is identical in electrical characteristics. but has an extra shield for reducing modulation hum In difficult cases.

Marconi Rectifiers and Barretters

Marconi GUI Mercury Vapour Rectifier.

THE rectifier has the unenviable

d isti nction of bei ng the hardest worked valve in the vast majority of receivers, and In accordance with tradition, it is usually the least considered.

Th is. certai n Iy in the case of Marcon i Rectifiers. may be due to the fact that their reliability induces users to .. fit and forget." The robustness and uniformity of the U.12, for Instance. is such that total troubles over the past 12 months do not reach t per cent. of sales.

Marconi Barretters are current regulators for the D.C. and" UNIVERSAL" ranges of valves. Their function is to maintain a constant current in the filament circuit. despite any reasonable variation in the voltage of the supply mains.

Two types are listed here. to cover all normal requirements, special cases being dealt with by the addition of fixed resistances.

Valve Base Diagrams

The advent of multiple valves has led to the Introduction of new bases. so that we now have as standards four types. with four. five. seven and nine pins respectively. Additionally. there are side and top terminals.

The following diagrams will therefore be very useful to the constructor and experimenter. and are as complete as possible. They represent the view of the pins as seen when looking at the underside of the valve base.

INTRODUCTION

THE diagrams given in the following pages are intended as a guide

to the enthusiast who prefers to design his own circuits or modifies published circuits to his personal tastes. They are not in any sense layouts. but give the best circuit arrangements. with component values as far as possible. A combination of diagrams may also be used to form a complete outline circuit for a set to meet' almost any need. whether superhet or straight. and for mains or battery.

Here we have the new battery heptode, Marconi X21. in a suitable circuit. The optimum screen voltage is 40. no advantage being obtained by exceeding this value. The oscillator reaction coil should be about i ~he tuned coli.

QP2! OUTPUT STAGE

The popularity of Marconi QP21. In Its • constant slope' circuit. Is steadily advancing. For clean. definite reproduction It Is undoubtedly the best battery set output stage when economy Is essential. Note that no screen matching Is required.

This circuit using the new triode hexode gives really satisfactory frequency changing on all wavebands. .. Pulling" due to stray couplings inside the valve is negligible. even at the highest frequencies. and no chance should be given of external coupling spoiling this state of affairs. Signal and oscillator circuits should be very carefully screened.

The frequency changer circuit. Here a useful point Is that the reaction coil in the oscillator circuit should be I to i the tuned coli. and fairly tightly coupled. The screens, which require about 80 volts. may be fed from the same point as the screens of the H.F. and i.F. amplifier. as this tends to: keep the voltage stable with changing bias.

This Is the standard circuit arrangement for A.V.C. with simple receivers. Note that the A. V .C. is taken from the transformer primary. tapped to a suitable impedance, This minimises side band screech if the secondary winding is made to tune more sharply than the primary,

Circuit Diagrams

When A.V.C. Is applied to one or two stages only, full control Is best obtained by using amplified A.V.C., with a circuit of the type shown here. The triode portion of the M.H.DA amplifies the A.V.C. voltage as well as the L.F. signal. The exact value of R7 depends on the total cu rrent taken by the

This is one of the many arrangements possible with Marconi WD30 and WD40. The pentode acting as I.F. amplifier is controlled by A.V.C. from one of the d i 0 des. The other diode givessignarr-eCti~ fication. Delay is obtained from the drop across R4. Very good A.V.C. results in circuits where the L.F,
