All Rights Reserved. Interference Ellmination. Once an idea takes root it is diffl. cult to change the mental attitude of a community on the subject. This holds true regarding the idea that Summer time is the off season for radio, from the standpoint that it is impossible to operate a receiver during the hot months. There are several type of interfer- ence which affect radio receivers and make good reception difficult if not impossible. Most people think of in- terference in the form of static. 'This type of interference is at its worst in the Summer time, while most of the others are with us all through the year. The annoyance from static has been cut down considerably This is not due to the use of static elimination devices or from any change in atmospheric conditions, but rather to the greatys power of the stations. { Static Condensed. The degree of interference from any particular source of disturbance is measured by a ratio of signal to in- terference strength. If the signal is very much stronger than the interfer- ence, the interference is scarcely no- ticeable. If, on the other hand, the interference is much stronger than the signal, enjoyment of & program is out of the question. It is this ratio of signal strength to interference strength that must be taken into consideration in using a radio set during periods when interfer- ence is particularly objectionable. The strength of interference for any particular location varies greatly from hour to hour and day to day. There are days in Summer when static is less noticeable than on any Winter s, and, of course, there are other <" when static interference is un bearable. circumstances, of course, is to make the be: ot it. Shut off the set when static is very bad, but don’t come to the conclusion that it is necessary to put mothballs on the radio set with the first blast of hot weather. In very many cases during the Summer you will find that static is this season. | The thing to do under such | JULY 3, 1925. Reproductici Prohibited. not ebfectionable enough to cause an- noyance if you tune in local stations Under such conditions ithe ratio of signal strength to static strength is very high and the annoyance is at a minimum. If, however, you try to tune in a distant station under such circumstances you will be disappoint ed, because in” that case the signal strength of the distant station i very weak, while that of the static remains the same as before. The result is that the ratio goes down, static pre dominates and reception is out of the question. If you will choose the more powerful stations under bad static conditions you can get falrly good re ception without much trouble. Leave distance hunting for better days and nights and enjoy the programs of your local broadcaster for a change. The increased power of broadecasting stations has also minimized interfer- ence from power lines, electric appli ances and other such gources of trou ble by making the ratio of signal strength to interference much greater than it formerly was. There is no reason why you should pass up the pleasure of listening in during the Summer months. If you have a receiver, use it during the Summer. If you haven't bought one yet, now Is the time to get it. Collegians on WEAF.
