An insulated dropped over the side of the hoat has been made to work quite as well as the expensive type strung between masts. The end of the wire must be in- sulated so that no part of the anten can come into connection h the water. This can be done by wrappinz the end with rubber tape and dipping ft in paraffin or by applying two a i to mend inner tubes or ubber - covered in the water. Motion Not Necessary. The hoat need not be in motion when the trail antenna is used, as it will receive the radio impulses when hanging straight down from the boat.

Perhaps the most successful type for the canoe is the loop antenna. consisting of about a dozen turns of wire around a frame some three feet in diameter.

The loop antenna has great possi- | bilities when used with vacuum tubes. ! | With two stages of audio-frequency | amplification and several states of ! radio-frequency amplification, a loop much less than a foot in diameter { can pick up stations in Europe. A visit to the boat clubs of the Hudson rivar shows that there are two classes of members, those Who have equipped their boats with radio and those who are planning to do { so. Even the commodore of the rock- ing-chair fleet, that venerable char- acter who is a sailor in spirit only, is | either enjoying the clubhouse radio | receiver or starting an agitation to | install one. | Complete’ transmitting apparatus is | sometimes condensed into such a mall form that it ¢an be operated {in a canoe or rowboat with the aid of dry cells. Receiving sets, practical on small pleasure boats, need not take up more room than a camera. With a simple aerial and ground connection. such a set can pick up transmitting stations more than twenty-five miles away. Smaller receiving sets are found practical in the race among amateurs for the invention of the smallest, and while the canoeist can carry his in his vest pocket, It i3 quite likery antenna has by running e along the sides of | THIS BY RADIO TODAY Schedule of Tonight's Wireless Entertainment.
