В. I remember when I started translating the original articles it really took me a lot of
time and I made many mistakes, but now I have succeeded in translating them rather
quickly and almost without mistakes.

                 TUBE PARAMETERS OR CHARACTERISTICS

1. Three important ratios, obtainable from either set of curves, are helpful in
analysing tube performance. These are the amplification factor, the mutual
conductance, and theinternal plate resistance. They are called the tube parameters or
characteristics.
 2. The amplification factor, symbolized by the Greek letter µ (pronounced "mu"), is
defined as the ratio of plate-voltage change to grid-voltage change, when plate current
is maintained constant. It is a measure of the relative effectiveness of the grid as
