TLDR
In this article, the general principles of the design of concentric conductor lines and means for compensating temperature changes are discussed, and the line controlled oscillators may be used with frequency multipliers, or to control oscillators at lower frequencies.
Abstract
Vacuum tube oscillators for radio frequency signals above 25 megacycles may be controlled with a high degree of precision by resonant lines, and at lower frequencies may be used to obtain a larger power output than is obtainable from crystal oscillators. The general principles of the design of concentric conductor lines and means for compensating temperature changes are discussed in this paper. Line controlled oscillators may be used with frequency Multipliers, or to control oscillators at lower frequencies.

Resonant Lines in Radio Circuits

TL;DR: In this paper, the mathematical relations governing their operation and several applications are discussed, including the use of the lines as circuit elements in the ultra-short wave range as a means of obtaining high impedance with low loss, where the lines may be either concentric tubes or 2 wires, and are sufficiently small that they may be placed within the apparatus.

New Methods of Frequency Control Employing Long Lines

TL;DR: In this paper, the advantages of using crystal oscillators as frequency standards and the economies and reliability of long line transmitter frequency control are discussed for short-wave transmitters, and a method is given for obtaining both the advantages and reliability for long line transmission lines.
