FIFTEEN MINUTES OF RADIO EACH DAY BY JOSEPH CALCATERRA Noted Authority on Radio Reproduction Prohibited. All Rights Reserved. Buying Radios by Comparative Test. An indication that the radio buying public is growing more and more sophisticated in its selection of the merchandise it buys is the demand among buyers to be given comparative tests of radio sets, loudspeakers, and practically every other instrument that can be tested comparatively against other similar merchandise. It is very difficult to compare two pleces of merchandise when any appreciable time interval passes between the two demonstrations or when local condi- tions intervene to make an actual demonstration under exactly the same conditions impossible. Few women have a perfect sense of color shading and materfal texture o | keenly developed that they will risk buying a plece of material to match some other material they have at home without bringing a sample along. It Is just as difficult to re- member just how that other set in the other store looked 8o as to be able to compare it with something else in another store as it is to match cloth samples and color shades without having the two samples side by side. It is even difficult to compare two sets on demonstration, side by side,- unless means are available to make a change from one set to the other or from one loudspeaker to the other instantaneously. Reception Changes Rapidly. PBroadcasting and voice rendition of ngs br instrumental pleces that are transmitted from a broadcasting sta- tion change very rapidly. An artist | may be singing very loudly one instant and almost die away to a whisper the fext instant. It would be manifestly unfair to judge two { receivers on the basis of connecting up one set for one number and then changing the connections slowly for another number, 5o as to make a com- parison of the volume and tone quality amount of “A" and ‘“B” battery cur- | rent consumed by any set so as to obtained from one set or speaker and ! another. The demands for such comparative tests has proven so Insistent that ! several manufacturers have perfected Instruments to make such compara- tive tests possible. One of the simple ways of making such a com- parative test is by connecting multi- plugs to both instruments so that con- nections from one set to the other can be made by plugging the batteries, aerial and ground connections from one set to the other. Some one else can quickly switch the loudspeaker from ©One set to the other at the same time. This, of course, s not a con- clustve method although it is much better than the slow method of chang- ing each individual connection. “Comparameter” Used. For commerctal cofparative test- ing, one manufacturer has developed an instrument called a ‘“compara meter,” which performs a number of switching operations very quickly. thus making it possible to change the | aerfal, ground and batteries from one set to another, using the same loud- speaker and can also be used to test loudspeakers by switching loud- speakers to a set one after another. This instrument also shows the determine beforehand how much it will cost to keep the set supplied with current. With this {nstrument four different sets or speakers can be tested | simultaneously so that any difference in performance of different types of | sets or even of sets of the same type | can readily be detected. The instru-| ment of course is not for home use as it sells for over $100, but radio dealers are using them to sell sets on the basis of actual performance as deter- mined by comparative tests. i TEACHES DEAF CHILDREN | NEW READING METHOD Dr. Arthur I. Gates Uses System in Which Words Are Learned by Visual Study. A new way read, in which the word symbols are learned by the deaf child by visual study, has been made practical by re- cent advances in psychology, accord- 1. Gates, professor of educational psychology in Colum- bia University. Dr. Gates is attend- ing the convention of school superin- the National Education Association to present the results of recent tests before the educators. The main difficulty has been to convey to the deaf child the meaning of such words as ‘when’ ‘above, ‘these’ and ‘but; which are quite es- sentfal to ordinary reading,” Dr. Gates explains. “These difficulties w n;\ of | able, but principles of learning now avatlable from psychology —suggest of teaching the deaf to | {members of the North American News- [PLAN NEXT POLE FLIGHT. Short-wave Radio Equipment for Planes Proposed. When the next Polesflight is under- | taken, between March 22 and April 22, the two airplanes of the Detroit Arctic expedition will be equipped with ultra- {modern short-wave radio apparatus, |according to Malcolm P. Hanson, who is handling the radio equipment. The plane set is rated at 50 watts on 45 and 61 meters, and will operate un- der a mewly assigned call, KDA, sig- nificant in the last two letters of De- troit Arctie. When in the air on the trip across the Pole, the planes will try to keep in communication with the ad- vance station of the expedition, KFZ at or its mobile | station, KF the plan of the fiyers to transmit radio press matter to the land station for release to the paper Alliance.

Batavia is one of the few countries free from radio interference, but, as this is due to the fact that there are no stations on the air there, it i3 ap- parently of little benefit. Some venturesome citizens plan the erection of a small brondcaster, al- though it will be in violation of local laws and subject the promoters to legal action. Nevertheless, it will probably serve as a t case, foreing the authorities to take a definite stand on this modern problem al- ready accepted in most countries as a blessing, although accompanied by considerable trouble.

It s not alone in the United States that announcers fail to repeat the sta- tion's call letters frequently enough to please all fans, espectally those at some distance from the station who seek to determine its identity. British fans are also comylaining that the an- nouncers are careless and do not give the station calls often enough; they want the call after each and every item on the program. R L S Berlin Plans Exposition. Berlin is planning another radio exposition, to be held September 3 to 12, 1926. A e The station at Koenigswusterhau- sen, near Perlin, operating on 1300 meters with 10-kilowat (input) trans- mitter, relays the Berlin evening pro- gram from 8 to 12 and broadcasts {rom its own studio on Sunday morn- ings. | being ma | York Society | Instruction of the Deaf, with promis- | ing words presented visually quite as| readily and as fully as the normal ehild learns to understand words pre- gented orally. There seems no reason to believe that it is harder funda- mentally to assoclate meanings with | Visual symbols_than with auditory signs.” The first test of this procedure is de in the school of the New for the Improvement of results. That methods of teaching the deaf children to read are not fully adequate at present is shown by Investigations made two years ago. Dr. Gates showed. Tt was found that deaf children, even those taught in first-rate Institutions, are rarely able at the age of 15, or often later, to read ordinary prose readily enough foreither information enjoyment. O oy ehildren often suffer pititully ! from loneliness,” said Dr. Gates. b ) they could be taught very early to read, their lives could be immeasur- ably enriched and enlightened RADIO PHONE SYSTEM. Successful Line Operates Between Two Hawallan Isles. ‘The first practical automatic radio telephone system in the United States is now in operation between the Islands of Oahu and Lanal, T. H., covering & distance of about 60 miles. It was established in October, 1924, being now over a year old. Through co-opetation with the shore telephone systems, people on one island can be connected with those possessing telephones on the other vin rndlo. Communication by radlo between the station at Honolulu, known as KYB, and that at Lanal City, KRQ, is said to be perfect. . RAD!0 HEARING GOES OVER Instead of taking further testimony on the alleged radio mos oly in New York the Federal Trade Commission has postponed further hearinzs until April, 1, when further testimony will be heard. X This is the second time the commis- sion ‘has Investigated the radio in- dustry; the first, at the request of Congress. was concluded over a vear ago when the charges were eviden’- 1y not sutstantiated.
