SINGLE DIAL CONTROL IS BECOMING POPULAR Inventor Tells of Availability of Device for General Use. ngle control for a group of tuned eircuits is coming into wide use, ac- cording to an announcement made to- day by John V. L. Hogan, who was granted a patent on this device in 1912. The invention has beén applied to commercial and Government re- celvers for some years, but is only now becoming available to the broad- cast listener. “The tremendous increase in the number of broadcasting stations is making selectiveness even more im- portant than sensitiveness in radio broadcast receivers,” said Mr. Ho- gan. “Single dial sets having only one tuned eircuit will no longer sat- isfy the broadcast listener, for most ot them will mot reach out for dis- tance while local stations are in op- eration. Increasing selectiveness by using several tuned cricuits is very effective for cutting through inter- ference, but the large number of ad- Bustnrents necessary when the cir- " oults are individually controlled is not only troublesome but often pre- ‘vents the user from getting the most sut of his set. I find that most peo- ple object to twirling as many knobs as would be necessary to open a safe in order to hear a distant station.
