RADIO BANQUETS UNIQUE FEATURE Simultaneous Gatherings of Heinz Employes Over World to Be Connected. Specinl 'snateh to The Star. PITTSBURGH, Pa., September 27.— Yor the first time radio will be used to the distance between members of international indus- organization, when 10,000 em- H. J. Heinz Co. attend a series of banquets that will be served the United States, Canada, Scot- land and England The dinner will follow the unveiling of a memorial to H. J. Heinz in the company's admin- istration building, P’rogress street, on Founder's d. urday, October 11. President Calvin Coolidge will speak from the White House to the diners and among the other speakers will be United States Senator George Wharton Pepper and Charles M. Schwab The banquet wos scheduled for a Year ago with President Harding as the special zuest of honor. As a mark of respect to the memory of the President, the banquet was postponed for a year after his death Simoltaneous Banquet The memorial, erected by contribu- tions from Heinz Company employes in all parts of the world, will be un- veiled at noon and the series of ban- quets, all connected by radio with a specially arranged dining hall in one of the larze Heinz buildings in Pitts- burgh, will be served at hours rang- ing from 3:30 to 11:30 p.m. Pitts- burgh time, to be in accord with 6:30 p.m. in this city, at which hour How- ard Heinz, president of the company, will call for the invocation. The same menu will be served at euch of the sixty-two banquets, and the addresses will be broadcast by Station KDKA, the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Co., to other diners in the big group. More than three thousand diners will be seated and served at the same time in Pittsburgh. As there is no banquet hall in the city that is large enough to seat so many people, it will be necessary for the company to make use of one of its largest buildings, which has been equipped with kitch- ens. reception rooms, tables and fur- niture to make it complete in every detail to serve its purpose. All Employes Invited. Every emplove in the big North Side plant will be invited to the ban- quet and the scveral hundred or more special guests will include some of the most distinguished men in the country Members of the Prosident's cabi- net. United States Senators, members of the House of Representatives at Washington, the Governor of Penn- sylvania and State, county and city officials will gather at the banquet table in Pittsburgh with captains of industry and finance, masters of the professions and other leaders of thought Witn dinners served in in this_country, three in four in England and one in Scotland, the speakers in Pittsburgh will talk to a_cosmospolitan audience within the 57 family and with 7,000, of their most interested listeners invisible. Inxtalling Special Equipment. Owing to the size of the Pittsburgh banquet hall, a system of amplifiers will be installed to enable every- body to hear the speakers. The Westinghous Electric & Man- ufacturing Co. is installing special radio equipment to broadcast the ad- dresses and spread the voices raised at Pittsburgh over at least half of the globe. Recelving stations are being placed at each point where a banquet will be held. eliminate an trial ployes of in 54 citi Canade. Local Radio Entertainment Sunday, September 28, 1924.

Reproduction Prohibited. The Function and Value of the Variable Grid Leak. For all general purposes the best approximate value of the grid Jeak which will give best results in the detector circuit may be found by try- ing various values of fixed grid leaks until one is found which gives the best all-around results. The grid leak can then be left in place and no further adjustment will be neces- sary except when it is desired to listen to stations at ‘different dis- tances. A type of grid leak and grid con- denser mounting designed for this purpose is shown in Figure 1 below. This consists of a spring clip mounting so designed that different condensers of varfous capacities and different fixed resistances may be in- serted or removed from their posi- tions between spring terminals which are connected to the terminals of the device. Fixed grid leaks can be obtained in variations of about one-half megohm S0 that the grid leak resistance can be adjusted within one-quarter of a megohm within the exact value for best results. The value of this method lies in the fact that it is possible to know just what value of grid leak was used when tuning in a particular station because the values of the resistances are marked on each cartridge. Before the value of the variable g7id leak in receiving distant sta- tipns can be understood it is neces- sary to know something about the action which takes place in the case of reception from nearby stations and reception from distant stations. Grid Variations Large. In the reception of nearby stations the grid variations above and below the normal value aré rather large because of the -strength of the re- ceived oscillations. In the case of reception from distant stations the oscillations are reduced considerably, due to the lessened strength of the received energy. The greater the amplitude of the grid oscillationd, the greater will be the attraction of the negative elec- trons to the grid and naturally the greater the accumulation of nega- tive electrons on the grid and the greater the necessity of allowing them to leak off quickly. Best re- sults from local stations which cause grid voltage variations of consider- able amplitude is, therefore, obtained when the grid leak resistance is comparatively low, s0 ag to allow the excess charges to leak off quickly and prevent undue accumulation on the grid. In reception from gistant stations the amplitude of the grid voltage va- riations is very much redyced, the ac- cumulation of electrons is reduced considerably, and the necessity of al- lowing them te leak off quickly is not so great. The leakage can be reduced, therefore, by increasing the resistance of the grid leak. To Get Best Results. Best results can be obtained, then, by using a variable grid leak so that the resistance can be adjusted to con- form with the requirements of the va. rious stations which are received, in- creasing the resistance for distant stations and decreasing it for nearby stations. So great has been the awakening as regards the value of the variable grid leak that there #¥e now many de- vices designed to accomplish the pur-) o The means used are many and in- genious. In some of the types shown in Figs. 2.3, 5, 6 and 7 the common method of varying the length of re- sistance element between two ter- minals is used. In others of the types shown in Figs. 4 and 10 use is made of the principle of the variation in resistance obtained from carbon, or graphite, or other such materials are placed under varying degrees of compression. In Fig. 8 Is shown a type in which two cam-shaped elec- trodes are immersed in a resistance liquid and in which the amount of the surface of each electrode exposed to the other, and consequently the amount of liquid between the two electrodes is varied by turning the device around its horizontal axis. The resistance of the device is varied in_that way. In Fig. 9 the length of a resist. ance strip is varied by immersing it into mercury to different degrees. The mercury acts as one terminal, while the other end of the resistance element is attached to another ter- minal. The resistance of the device depends on the amount of resistance material between ome terminal and the mercury. In conclusion, it might be well to mention that where the maximum effi- ciency is desired the variable grid leak should be used. Where sim- plicity of operation is the governing factor the variable grid leak can give place to one of the fixed variety.

RADIO GOSSIP AND NEWS The opening speech of Secretary Hoover at the third national radio conference here will be broadcast from WCAP, Washington: WEAF, New York, and probably WJAR, Prov- idence, and WMAQ, South Dartmouth, Mass. There is a possibility that other stations, usually participating in the Bell system multiple broad- casts, will also be hooked up, but no definite announcement has been made. Due to the difficulties in operating long distance inter-connection lines it is doubtful if western fans will have the privilege of listening in on the opening sessions, to the extent thal they did Defense day. On Monday evening, October 6 those in the East, as well as listeners owning long distance receivers, will be able to hear the Commerce head explain some of the radio problems before the cnference. The names of five more delegates have been received by - Secretary Hoover, bringing the total to 18, and It is understood that the War Depart- ment will be represented by Maj Ben- der, Signal Corps; the Navy by Capt. McLean, chief of communications, and the Commerce Department by Com- missioner of Navigation Carson. There are still a few organizations which have not yet accepted the Gov- ernment’s invitation to appoint mem- bers of the general advisory commit- tee, but the success of the meeting is assured, and all interests will be rep- resented. At the opening session on Monday night Secretary Hoover plans to ask all delegates and guests to file thelr questions aud suggéstions in writing sosthat they may be grouped and cither handed to proper subcommittee chairman or scheduled for discus- sion on certain days. It is believed that. matters designated for consid- eration can thus be properly classi- fied. The tentative list of delegates fol- lows: R. G.

The program prepared for the con- ference includes the general alloca- tion of frequency or wave length bands; consideration will be given to all of the services. For broadcasting stations there will be considered the division of their band among the sev- eral classes and also a possible re- vision of the present zoning plan. General problems of radio broadcast- ing will include power requirements and limitations, the improvement of programs, the revision of class re- quirements and the question of RE-CHARGE YOUR BATTERY BY TELEPHONE Phone us before 10 am. and battery, fully charged, the same SMITH’S Battery and Electric Service North 9928 2119 Eighteenth St. N.W.

Problems to be considered affecting marine radio include the assignment of wave lengths to individual shore stations or groups of ships, the types of waves permitted for various ma- rine services, the possible elimination of free transmission of position re- ports and requirements for op- erators’ licenses. Amateur problems include the sub- division of the band allocated for their use and arrangements by which it may be possible to identify ama- teur calls from different countries. Plans for the reduction of Inter- ference with radio reception include the difficulties encountered from elec- trical devices other than radio trans- mitting stations and from the use of unnecessarily high power, varia- tion from assigned frequencies, broad waves, harmonics, etc. General consideration also will be given to the interconnection of broadcasting stations by radio and by wire. National Broadeasting News. Very soon now the radio public, even the crystal listeners, in New York, Washington, Schenectady, and ssibly also in Pittsburgh, Hastings and Oakland, may get more long- distance radio programs. The Radio Corporation has a wire line connect- ing its New York broadcasters, WJZ and WJY with WGY in Schenectady, and a line strung between New York and WRC at Washington ready for use. The corporation is planning to extend its interconnections by both wires and radio retransmission to in- clude several radio stations, which will, of course, compete with the big cireuit of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company. In confirmation ‘of Secretary Hoo- ver's prophecy that intercommuni- cation through the interconnection of high-power broadcasters was the kreatest development in broadcast- in®, the Bell System and the Radio Corporation are extending their broadcasting nets. On Defense day 19 stations were connected by tele- phone, the greatest number which was ever hooked up, and, as radio fans from coast to coast know, it worked excellently. Some time ago the Radio Corpora- tion also tried out interconnection by | wire and radio, transmitting simul. taneously from New York, Schenec. tady, Pittsburg, Hastings and Oak- {1and. This circuit will in all prob- ability be extended and used upon important occasions. The telephone company does not plan to operate its broadcasting net except on occasions of national im- port, such as presidential addresses, important proclamations, etc., on a ((‘nunl of the great expense and the fact that it ties up their trunk line: It is, nevertheless, safe to assume that both these systems will be used to ad- vantage when occasions arise and fans should appreciate the fact that we have two broadcasting nets ready to serve in emergencies or in the event national broadcasts are desired. No other country in the world has such systems nor are they likely to {have them for many years. Strengthens Radio Signals. A new natural phenomenon, in the form of cold waves, improves radio transmission especially at a distance of between 250 to 300 kilomete radio engineers of the Bureau Standards state. In daylight - aves affect radio transmission long- wave signals from transatlantic sta- tions at New Brunswick and Tucker- ton, N. J., a preliminary report from the bureau points out. The signal strength varied and the apparent direction of the sending sta- ‘ion deviated. according to the ob- servations.

At the same period there were deviations of many de- grees in the apparent directions of the transmitting stations shown by a radio compass, even in forenoons, when long-wave compass bearings are usually free from errors. When cold waves subsided at the end of January, uniform transmis- sion conditions were not restored, but an unstable condition persisted throughout the milder weather of February and March. The signals trequently fluctuated from high tc normal values through apparently mo connection with the weather. After March 19 the irregularities disap- peared. Observations on other long-wave stations indicated that these large variations do not occur at a distance of 50 kilometers, but are large be- tween 250 and 300 kilometers, and again decrease between 400 and 700 kilometers. No definite explanation of this phenomenon has been found, although the cause is believed to be atmos- pherical. The connection with the cold wave suggests that either the part of the atmosphere concerned with the signal variations lies much below the heaviside layer, between 80 and 100 kilometers of that weather phenomena are correlated with at- mospheric action at much greater heights than has been supposed. The Department of Commerce last week issued licenses to two broad- casting stations as follows: KFRC, Radicraft Studio, San Fran- cisco, 280 meters, 5 watt, WFBI, Galvin Radio upply Co., Camden, N.
