A new type of “bootlegger” has ar- rived. This time his appearance is in Bulgaria, where private radio receiv- ing stations are prohibited by law. Fear of its enemies has stimulated the Bulgarian government to pass this law, but the radio fan neverthe- less finds that he can obtain a receiver through the aid of persons who make a business of smuggling sets into the “O¥nmms time ago about 70 of these private sets were confiscated by the Bulgarian government, but receiving apparatus is reported to be smuggled into the country in spite of the re- strictions. — Tip on Sockets. Removing and replacing tubes grad- ually weakens the tension of the socket prongs against the tube legs. By bending the prongs upward with a screw driver you will prevent cur- vent losses that cut down the range of your receiver. KEEP JACKS CLEAR. Sandpapering Often Rids Set of Sizzling Noises. Although the contacts of all high- grade phone jacks are made of silver, which has a” high degree of condu tivity, dust or dirt may possibly get in between the metal surfaces. The result will be sizzling and frying nolses in_the headphones or loud speaker. The simplest way to clean these jack contacts is to let them close on a piece of fine sandpaper and then pull the sandpaper out. Repeat this| process with the sandpaper turned over and you will then be sure that both contacts are clean. Do not use emery paper because emery powder is conductive and may partially short- circuit the fack. Tubes Often Vary. By changing your tubes around in the sockets, you will often find some that work better as detectors and others as amplifiers. To avoid mis- takes, unscrew two tubes at a time.

C, Use of Two Aerials, One High, One Low, Is Found to Reduce Static Annoyance A means for overcoming statis inter- | ference to a marked degree, and at the same time causing no diminution of received signals has been discovered by Frank Conrad of Pittsburgh. The inventor finds that static changes and static induetfon in an- tennas of different heights are sub- stantially the same, whereas the in-| tensity of the impulses set up in an-| tennas by incoming signals varies | with the height. This phenomenon is ! pictured in the dlagram. | The signals, as we know, aro stronger at greater heights. On the FIFTEEN MINUTES O basis of this phenomena the inventor claims to eliminate the disturbing ef- fects of static discharges through the use of two antennas for the intercep- tion of messages. These antennas are 80 associated with receiving apparatus that the equal static discharges in the two antennas cancel each other and become imperceptible. On the other hand, the unequal amounts of energy of transmitted sig- nals picked up by the antennas, that result from their different heights, fail to cancel each other; whereby a residual_effect remains that may be amplified to produce a readable signal. F RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA, Noted Authority on Radio. All Rights Reserved. Be Careful in Constructing Your Aerial—Part 1. 1t takes a lot of pains and expense to build a set to overcome the handi- caps imposed by a poor aerial. There is no part of a receiver installation which will respond as nobly to good treatment as the aerial system. As far as cost is concerned, it takes very little extra material or quality of parts to make a good aerial than it does to make a poor aerial. Yet many a fan slights this part of his equip- ment The reason for this lack of care in constructing aerials is no doubt due to the fact that hard and fast rules or detailed information on aerial con- struction cannot be made for all in- stallations. Detailed step-by-step in- structions can be given for construct. ing a receiver, but when it comes to aerfal installation only general rules can be glven. The fan must use his own judgment in erecting an aerial that is as good as cirmustances will allow. Length of Antenna Explained. The length 1o be used is governed largely by local conditions and the type of set you are going to use. If you have a powertul set of the five-tube type, do not use an aerial longer than 100 feet, including the length of lead- in wire.” If your aerial is to be erected on the roof and you are iocated on the first floor, say about 50 feet from the roof, count the length between vour aerial and make the horizontal portion not more than 50 feet If you have a small set of the one- to-three-tube type, your aerial can be AMATEURS FACING CUT IN WAVE LENGTHS Now Polling Ranks to Determine If Diminution Is to Be Contested. | Confronted with losing another t lengths at the national radio conference, the amateurs of the United States have begun to poll their ranks as to what, if any, opposition shall be made to the proposal According to all indications, the downward trend of the wavelength bands for broadcasting stations un- doubtedly will necessitate the annex. ation of the wave lengths De tween 130 and 200 meters, at present used extensively by amateurs. In return for the appropriation of this band, it is expected that addftional bands lying. below 150 meters will be offered to the amateurs. And, in view of the intense interest being shown by many amateurs in the exceedingly low wave lengths, it is believed that at least a large group will make no complaint. There are. on the other hand. & great many amateurs who have reed- justed their transmitters and receivers to work around 180 meters and have made use of their amateur licenses solely for the entertainment they de. rive in conversing with their fellow radio fans in other cities and other countries. To them the loss of the 180-meter wave length would he a matter of considerable annoyance. Hiram P. Maxtm, head of the Radio Relay League, at the last radio con. ference represented the amateurs and urged at that time that the rights of the orlginal radio fans be respected and that they be allowed to keep the wave lengths assigned to them. He pointed out that broadcasting had al- ready taken away nearly all of the wave lengths originally enjoved by the amateurs. COOLIDGE SPEECH ON AIR WCAP Will Broadcast Memorial Day Address. Among the leading events scheduled for broadcasting at eastern stations this week will be the Memorial day exercises at Arlington National Ceme- tery at which President Coolidge will deliver the principal address, and a Cantigny day banquet program from the Arlington Hotel, to be attended and addresed by Gen. Pershing, Gen. Summerall, Gen. Bullard and other of- ficers of the A. E. F. The Memorial day program will be broadcast by WCAP and a chaln of seven stations, and the Cantigny day program by WRC and four other stations. the pro atch next bility of of their wave ‘WJAZ to Resume Broadcasting. WJAZ, the Zenith Radio station’s call letters which have undergone probably more changes in ownership than any other set of air letters. are | scheduled to return on the ether at an early date. Although without a wave length at present, it s expected that WJAZ will obtain a claes A length and employ high power. 1t is understood that WJAZ will endeavor to rebroadcast messages from the MacMillan expedition into the Arctic. i .

Reproducticu Prolubited. as long as 150 feet without bad results, uniess your set is not selective. If you find after erecting your aerial that it 1s too long and you're troubled by interference and cannot eliminate sta- tions very easlly, cut down the length of the aerial. All that is necessary to do this is to lower the support at the far end of the aerial, cut the horizontal span about 20 to 25 feet nearer to the lead-in end and insert another aerial insulator. A good plan is to start with a long aerfal, about 100 to 150 feet in length over all, including lead-in, and then shorten it about 10 feet at a time until you get a length that gives you best results. You will find it easier to fit your aerial to your set than to fit the set to the aerial. Long and Short Antennas. In many cases very little attention can be given to such fine points as directive properties, because the man- ner in which the aerial is erected is governed not by preference but by the conditions imposed by location of the apartment and supports. If vou interested only in local programs, very little is to be gained by considering directive properties of aerials. For distance reception, however, erect your aerial, if ppssible, so that a line drawn from the far end of your aerial and passing through the lead-in end, if continued, would pass through the dis- tant station which you would like to receive with greatest eflicfency. The use of more than one wire for an aerial is not recommended, except where the length of the aerial is lir ited. If you can get a horizonts stretch of 50 feet, do not bother with two or three wire er SEEK BROADCASTING OF ONE-ACT PLAYS Booking Agents Circularize Vari- ous Radio Stations on Sub- ject of Playlets. Several booking agencies for the one-act play, either for direct or in direct advertising, have sprung into existence and circularized the leading broadeasting stations in an effort to determine what use they can make of the playlet on the air. Several statlons, including the three General Electric Co. stations, WGY, at Schenectady: KGO, at Oakland. and KOA, at Denver, have worked out a scheme of broadcasting plays which met with considerable success during recent months. A full company of plavers, recruited for the most part among the employes of the Gene Electric plants, provided one presen- tation a week at each station Other stations have taken occasional fiyers into the radio drama game, but most of them have laid it aside until it can be developed to a greater de- gree. Under the plans of the agencies now at work on the broadcasting of one-act plays, skits will be written which are especially adapted to radio and which can develop their effects through the spoken word and other sounds. 1If the sketches prove popu- lar they will be offered to broadcast advertisers, who will then make the presentations under their trade name. One of the most interesting pieces of work of this sort was carried out by WEAF and a chain of seven sta- tions in broadcasting a radio version of “Camille” some time ago. It is understood that WEAF is planning another attempt to interest radio listeners in the radio drama. . TEST OF BALLOON TIRES ON SPEEDWAY PLANNED First Tryout to Be Given in 500- Mile Auto Race Saturday at Indianapolis. By the Associated Press. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. May 25.— Balloon tires will receive.their first test on the Indianapolis motor speed- y track next Saturday in the thir- teenth annual 500-mile automobile race. Most of the “big league” drivers have equipped their cars with the low pressure tires, which they say have performed satisfactorily in the long practice spins. The local course is of brick, that have settled with age, making the going the roughest and most dange: ous, the pilots say, of any track in America. Most speedways are of wood and very smooth. The drivers are confident that the new tires will cushion the way to their personal comfort and at the same time not hold down their speed. Tomorrow is the last day for pra tice before the start of the qualifs ing trials, set to begin Tuesday after. noon. PR RADIO SEEKS EXPLORERS. Three Stations Send Calls for Nut- ting Arctic Party.
