NEW YORK, December 16.—More than . twenty-five radio operators working with short-wave transmis- slon sets have succeeded in sending messages from the United States to Scotland ms a result of the competi- tive experimental test begun last week. | _ This was announced here today by Prof. Alfred N. Goldsmith, head of' the radio and ‘electrical branch of the College of the City of New York. One of the successful contestants, he added, was located in Cleveland, and others in states boarding the Atlantic. The test, he added, had aroused the keen interest of, more than 100,000 amateur enthusiats in this country, iand if British ' laws permitted amateurs of that country using a wave length similar to that permitted here, “the boys would be talking to each other as they now do from state to state in this country.” “The results show what efficient utilization of - power will +-do,” he added. “Messuges have been exchang- ed over the. Atlantic for some time by government and commercial sta- | tions, but the power they use, meas- | ured in technical terms, is about| 10,000 times as much as permitted the amateurs.” Prof. Goldsmith compared the suc cess of the amateurs with the feal whereby the rays from an_ordinar: incadescent light might be mad visible to observegs in Scotland. “The power,” he asserted, “is abmm the same. the only difference being | light rays are visible, while the radio | energy Is not.” i Joint Test Successful. Among the amateurs who have re- |) ceived acknowledzement that their message was recel , are Maj. E. H. Armstrong, Amy, John F.| Grinan, Minton Cronkhelt, Walter | Inman and George E. Burghardt of the Radio Club of America, who made a joint test. purpose they set up a sta- cnnecticut, in the construction | a nearby fire department as- sisted in setting the poles and doing other necessary work. For three nights they worked sending over and over a certain number of words and then came | the cable announcing success. The messages are being received in Scotland by Paul Godle: tive of the Radio R League of | America, working in unction _with | Phillip Coursey of the Amateur Wire- ! less Society of Great Britajn. 200-Meter At_stated hours, Mr. C i in" with his receiving set tuned to pick up messages at the required wave length | 00 meters. Mr. Coursey alone has | the secret code words of identifica- | tion—and by this means the sender is identified by his letter and number | designations. Preparations for the contest took on the spirit of a sporting event. An elimination contest was held by which contestants were picked on their_abil- ity to transmit a certain distance. These contestants were given first chance to compete for the honor of being first to send their message over the Atlantic. After a certain period the contest was opened to all, fifteen-minute periods being allotted to the various radio dis- triets. Transmission by a’ commercial radio Gompany of an announcement from Mr. Godley giving names of stations heard is as eagerly listened for by the thou- sands of operators as are the results of an international race or any other test of skill, Mr. Armsrong_asserted. representa- and Gowns are beautifully re- stored to fresh- ness and attrac- tiveness by our Cleaning and Dyeing Depart- ments.
