WRELESSBEACON BOON T0 AVITORS Light Signals Enable Flyers to Detect Slight Variations From True Course. BY CARL H. BUTMAN. A_speclal type of radio receiver, which permits air pilots to maintain course through darkness and fog toward a radio beacon is the latest development in radio and aeronautics. ‘This improved radio receivy or indi- cator is visual, in that the pilot does not have to listen in continually for ihe code signals which keep him on | lis route; he merely watches three | electric lights on his dashborad. I'hey are operated by the radio signal vicked up when his receiver is prop erly tuned on the beacon, and ind cates to him whether he is on his vroper course or veering to the right or left. Radio beacon finding, or directional flying, tests have been conducted for ~ome time at McCook Field, in Day- ton, the pilots using the radio beacon t Wilbur Wright Field, which sends out a series of gwiding signals for their use. The development of this stem, patterned somewhat after the marine methods, has been through the co-operation of the ignal Corps and Air Service t MeCook Field and the Air Mail Service. In the te ., pilots frequently flew from the, field and lost themselves in the air, trusting to the radio b gnide them home. In this the always succes v System Used. The origina stem was called the ignal system, in which two sig- nals transmitted simultaneously from the beacon had to be kept at equal strength to assure the pilot that he was on the proper line or fying to- ward the beacon. development 1ade during the past year is an im svement. It is known as the inter- king signal system. Two distinct cnals are still ent out but they combine to form a third character when the airplane is on the right ne.

The only. general rem- edy for electrical interference is co- operative effort on the part of users of radio and owners of the electrical sources of disturbance to reduce or eliminate the causes of the trouble, the Bureau of Standards points out. Much of the work in reducing eleg- trical interference also results in an improvement in the operation- of the electrical devices or supply lines, and is thus a double gain. There are, however, ~some electrical devices which, even when in perfect working order, cause disturbances resulting in interference with radio reception. But in many cases it is possible to provide filters, shields, chokes, et the source of disturbance or at the receiving set, which do much to re- lieve the difficulties. Some of the disturbances from clec- trical devices are practically inevi- table and must be regarded, like at- mospheric disturbances, as part of the inherent limitation of radio reception. A frequent cause of Interference is the presence of alternating current power lines near the antenna or re- , either at | j around a receiving set having a series antenna condenser by connecting be- tween the antenna and ground termi- nals of the set a high resistance, which will offer lower impedance to the audio frequency than will the re- ceiving set itself. Sparks are produced in the normal operation of many types of electrical apparatus such as motors, doorbells, buzzers, gasoline engines, X-ray ap- paratus, violet-ray machines, some forms of battery chargers, rural tele- phone ringers, heating-pad thermo- stats. They are also sometimes. pr duced at defective insulators, tran formers, etc., of electric wire lines. Sparks ‘usuaily give rise to electric waves, which travel along the electric power wires and by them are radlated out and are picked up by receiving sets. The noise thus produced in' a radio set may come from a disturbance which has traveled several miles along the electric power wires. One remedy for such types of inter- ference is to eliminate the spark. This is possible if the spark is an electrical leak and not necessary to the opera- tion of the machine in which it occurs. Many very udeful electrical machines, however, require for their operation might not do and almost no limitations on the extent to which it might de- velop. Fortunately, behind radio were the vision and fmagination of some rare and unusual men. Ideas bred ideas in an instant and there was the faith ! to see them through. Approaches to Maturity.

No Let-Up on Air. While conferences, meetings and hearings are being conducted this Winter it is not to be understood that the air will suffer any let-up in | the quantity of programs that are transmitted either for altruistic er commercial purposes. There are approximately 600 broad- casting stations on many wave lengths and of greatly VAarying power. If anything, the quantity of their pro- gram material will be inereased, and, from present indications, the quality jwill be generally improved. By way of novelty and of pointing out the eventuul possibilities of international broadcasting there will be frequent exchanges of American, British and German concerts and important ad- dresse: tennae of the Radio Corporation of America, the British Broadeasting Co. and the German government.

Low frequency voltage (usually 60 cycles) are induced and the resultant current flowing in the receiving circuit causes a “humming” sound in the telephone receivers. A method of eliminating, or at least duclng, this interference is to plac the antenna as far as possible from the lines and at right angles to them. When the interference cannot be eliminated by such means, the choic of u receiving set may help. An in- ductively coupled (two-clrcuit) re ceiving set may help. An inductively coupled (two 1it) receiving set is less susceptible to such interfe enc than a single-circuit set.

But these are all high-powered stations— not superpower stations, the depart- ment insists. Ships Removed From Broadcasting Band. The actual strength of the broad- casting industry is indicated through the recent action of the United States, British and Canadlan governments in ordering all their vessels to keep off the broadcasting waves when within 250 miles of the shores of these coun- tries. Fans here and abroad will re- jolce, but the old marine radio opera- tors will certainly be astounded. Considering that the ships were the first to employ radio as a practical means of communication, and that they always have been considered first relative to the best channels for com munication, this decision reveals the trend of power toward broadcasting and its satisfactor: eption. The ships, however, are provided for in that they will continue to use the old distress call wave length- that is, 600 meters—and some chan nels above, far enough from the broadcast band as not to cause inter ference even when used neur the shores. According to statements issued by the State and Commerce Departments, commencing October 1 all ships fly ing the United States, British, Irish or Capadian flags are probibited from using the 300 and 450 meter wave lengths when within 250 miles of the shores of the three countries. A similar arrangement made early | this year between Canada and the | States relative to the abandoning of | these ship channels on the Great | Lakes. | Tt is expected,” the statement points out, “that this arrangement | will aid materfally in preventing in-| terference with the reception of pro grams offered by broadeasting st | tions in the United State Recep- | tion by fans in the other signatory | nations will also he benefited, of course. A few rs ago, however, 10 one would ventured to predict that any other use of these marine wave lengths would ever be made. However. there iy mutual benefit to be derived from the new agreement. since the ships themselves will now be free from broadcast interference.

But that wouldn’t do for Radiotrons. A way had to be found—and it was foundin the laboratories contributing to RCA—to exhaust the tube to ten million times less air than in a lamp! Even the metal and the glass itself have been forced to give up air bub- bles hidden inside their very substance. And no one even knew before, that metal and glass held hidden air bub- bles. : If the air isn’t all out—the electrons that carry the radiosignals can’t jump across as they should.
