J. hurtled acroxs the Atlant Riversid ic to Warsaw, and was relayed back to the club via Radio Impulse From U. S. to Poland Impregnating heavy static and a severe thunderstorm in Poland, radio impulses made a complete circuit of £.500 imiles in .054 seconds between the Radio corporation’s high pow- ered transoceanic stations in New i York and Warmaw in a speed test conducted last night especially for the Washington section of the Amer- fcan Association of Electrical Engi- neers In session at the Cosmos Club. It was the first public tempt at accurate measurement of radio jm- pulses. A motion picture film device, con- neoted with a powerful radio receiv- ing set, tuned to the transoceanic receiving statlon at Riverhead, N. Y., was used as the measuring instru- ment. The photographic record was produced by a tape attached to the receiving set and the tima was measured by the distance between the photographio impressions made on the film by a stvius. Consider Wire Speed. In calculating the transmission of time of the radio signals a carefull fizured deduction was made for the slower wire transmission between the sending key and the broadeasting point on this side of the Atlantic and between the thirty-five miles sep- arating the receiving and transmit- ting stations at Warsaw. With the wire transmission inciuded the laps of time between the sending and re- turn of the signal was figured at .130 second The speed test was conducted by Capt. R. H. Ranger, radio_engineer of the Radio Corporation. Radio ap- paratus of all types had been set up in the club for this and subsequent demonstrations.

Lincoln Tells Radio Audience of Show Plans. Radio receiving sets, ranging from the simple crystal to the latest crea- tions in the complex hetrodynes and super-hetrodynes and a varied as- sortment of regenerative receivers, will be on display at Washington's firet annual radio show, which opens next Wednesday at Convention Hall, Fred S. Lincoln, general chairman of the committee in charge of the expo- sition, told the radio audience last night in a speech broadcast from WRC, the Radio Corporation of America station. Mr. Lincoln also outlined the vari- ous entertainment features of the show, and cmphasized the magnitude of the event, which, because of the numerous government exhibits, is x:lesunefl to attract nation-wide atten- on. Confronted by Problem. “Most radio shows,” he said, “have been held in hotels. This will con- vey what their size must generally have been. Al one needs to do is to visualize the space available in the average modern hotel to get that, so we measured the limited space usual- 1y required for radio shows and for shows In citles many times larger than Washington, and thus by com- parison with our immense Convention Hall were brought to a realization of the thing we wers undertaking.
