Broadway was heard with excellent quality in | all parts of the country, but a gréat many radio fans right in Greater New York, principally parts of Brook- lyn, found it difficult to tune in to the station. This was due entirely to the mass of steel and other air obstructions about the midtown dis- trict. So, for many months WGBS | engineers conducted tests in all parts of Greater New York and New Jers with the result that the location in Astoria, Manhattan, was selected as heing the best possible place for its smitter.
