RADIO TRABE FEEL ~ CRUXTHIS SEASON . Shaped Through Coming Winter in Air Programs. S 'The radio season that ushered in throughout this month is looked upon by most of the leading radio manufacturers and Broadcasters as the most critical that the industry and art has vet experi enced. During the coming Winter, it is ex- plained, the method by which the listener interest in broadcasting is to be gained and permanently held must be definitely decided and policies out lined for the coming years. With this idea in mind, the for tunes of the National Broadcasting is being Co., formed by the Radio Corporation | of America, a8 a medium for a scheme of national radio programs. will be closelv watched by the entire radio world. : Millions Are in Sight. There is littie doubt that the ven- ture will prove a profitable one for at | least a year. Manufacturers are flock ing to the microphone for the na tignal publicity and good-will advertis fng that is to be had thropgh mechanism. and several millions of dollars are to be spent in the course of the next six months for the privi- lege of transmitting trade names and slogans to the country's radio listen ers. At the end of the season. however. will come the check-up. If the sales of receivers continue their upward trend at the same pace as in the past three seagons. if the demand for bat terfes and tubes continues to increase. and if the broadcasting manufacturers continue in a state of prosperity, the good-will type of radio program will be considered acceptable to the listen- ers and therefore most acceptable to the radio industry and the nation’s broadcasters New Ideas Expected. On the other hand. should the an ticipated sales of recelvers, batteries and tubes fall below expectations and should the broadcasting manufac turers encounter a year of only moderate financial gain, it 1s con sidered very likely that both broad- casters and the radio industry will begin serfously to think of other ways in which to attract the attention of the vast listening audience. To this end. therefore, many and original ideas are expected to be injected into the good-will entertain ment that will come through the air during the next six months. Entertainment experts and prom- fnent showmen gre being attracted into the radio studio to design pro grams that will make the listener want to stay at home with his re ceiver and additional hundreds of thousands of dollars are to be spent by commercial broadcasters through the ordinary advertising mediums in calling attention to what's on the air.

A weather service by radio will be put into operation within a month between the Naval Radio Station at Arlington, Va. (NAA), and the trans. port Kittery and the light ecruiser Trenton. it has been announced by the Navy Department. Instruments for the reception of weather maps by radio are being in stalled on the two vessels. The mape will be transmitted by the Jenkins picture transmission system. using a transmitter on 38 kilocveles. Fargers of Denmark are suffering heavy losses caused by the hoof-and- The ‘P William T.

Five new stations went on_the air | last week with licenses issued by the | Department of Commerce and ten es- tablished stations changed their wave lengths. The new stations are located | in Newburgh, N. Y.: Monroe. Mich.: Jersey City. N. J.: Carthage. IIl.. and Prescott, Arlz. They are all small stations. the Jersey City broadcaster being the largest and having enly 200 watts power. The new broadcasters | bring the total number licensed since July 1 to 47 and the total on the air to There were no licenses issued during the preceding week. Of the ten changes in ether chan- nels. two do not amount to anything, since they show changes of only one kilocycle. an amount of space impos sible to estimate on a receiving set dial. Unforfunately, however. these two shifts take stations WDRC and KSBA off the standard channels es. tablished by the Commerce Depart ment radio supervisors, leaving only nine kilocycles sepavation between them and some stations on adjacent waves. On September 18 total shifts of wave lengths numbered 40 since | the authority of the department to | assign definite wava lengths was denied. The five new stations are: WKBM, New York. 215.7 meters, 23 | watts. WKBL, Moproe. Mich., 252 meter 15 watts. WKBO, Terspy 309.1 meters, 200 watts. | WCAZ, Carthage, Tll, 245.8 meters, | 50 watts. KPJM, Prescott, 5 watts. City, N. J., Ariz., 215 meters, Foreign Stations Boost Power. Foreign bhroadcasting stations are rapidly approaching' the American stations with regard to the use of high power, although Amer . with | from 5-kilowatt transmitters, still leads in this respect. Daventry, England, has the most powerful broadcaster abroad. according to Lawrence Batson of the Department of Commerce, who has made a world survey of radio power. This leading British broadcaster is rated at 16 kilowatts. Moscow, Rus. sia. ranks mnext with an S-kilowatt station, while Paris, Prague and Burketon Junction. Canada. follow with stations powered at 5 kilowatts. Paris, France, also has a 4,000-watt transmitter, London a 3,000-watter and Rome one rated at 2.600 watts Eleven stations of 2.000 watts are located in Jugoslavia. Austria. Latvia Russia. France, and Germany, some of these countries having two stations each. Twenty-three broadcasters with 1,500 to 1.800 watts are operated in rope and 30 more rated from 1.000 1,200 are. reported as in use throughout the world. The total for eign stations rated at 1.000 watts or | over is 7 International Call Letters. Now that many American radio fans are able to pick up foreign broad casting stations, and trans.oceanic listening is not only possible but pop- ular, it may be worth while to explain | the international call letter assign-| ment system and the distribution of | the groups to the different countries. The international lists of radio calls, used by both commercial and broad- casting stations, is prepared and kept up-to-date by the Berne Bureau of the International Radio-telegraphic Con ference. Most of the calls contain three significant letters, although four are sometimes used In the United States, as is pretty well known, we are assigned all W and N calls. ag well as the K calls| KDA to KZZ _ Our hroadeast twe A0-kilowatt stations and many | calls fall within the K and W groups | with WMAL, will have charge of the - {arrangements for the opening and future programs of the station.

Just at this moment vou could operate a hed ‘more efficiently.” T need the air.”" he decided take a spin in the car.” “No thanks: In a mood like this vou would make a mess of gear shift. ing and more than likely have a scrap with a trafic cop. Maybe it would he more refreshing if you would think | back over recent pleasant evenings at the dials and try to discover why they were pleasant. I think vou will find it's a matter of temperament and moods."" Smith gave the antenna tuning dial a more gentle twist and was surprised to find that he picked up the station for which he had been trying. “There you are” I said. “Tune| leisurely and you get what you want Be impatient and you sit forlornly be- fore a silent set.” “That was just a matter of luck, Smith argued. “Possibly,” 1 agreed, “but you know | luck comes to those who cast about for it.” Smith began thinking it over, but 1 decided to bring to his mind some matters he doubtless had overlooked. Proud Radio Fan. How well 1 remember the first evening vou had this new set.” T be. gan. ‘You were the proudest radio fan in the neighborhood. It was a foregone conclusion that you would be able to give us an evening of good reception because vou were deter- mined to demonstrate your new | wonder. The upshot of it was you helped the set. “Don’t you remember the trouble we had with the humming ‘C' battery? You tried to make the old one do in the new set with the new ‘B’ batteries, but it didn’t work. It puzzied you for more than an hour until you re- membered what you had done? Rut did it discourage you? No, sir! You were in a mocd for reception, and re ception is what you got. Trouble merely gave You an opportunity to | learn more about the set. | ““Temperamental persons are apt to taste both the heights and depths of radio reception. They get the best | and the poorest, and seldom get what | they want when they want it. The fan who has his own way the mosat often is the fellow who is wise enough | to control his temperament. He keeps from going off at a tangent and is particularly careful to be always in a receptive mood. In other words, he tries to accept whatever comes his way as being for his own good, and | then by adjusting himself to condi- | tions obtains the best results that pos- sibly could be had. ‘Suppose you find static bad but | have made up vour mind to take what- | ever comes along and make the best of it. Do yeu tune for distant sta- | tions> Not much! You tune for a | 1ocal and cut down on the power as much as possible. That gives you a | maximum of velume with a minfmum “Let's — e —— | | of static. “T've been watching redio fans for | some time and 1 find that they get the best pepults, regardlossof & when they are in the mood for them. The other evening Brown and I came in from a long drive and planned to | spend the rest of the evening talking business. Before starting. however., he turned on the radio and tried to get a certain station. I made a bet with him before he started that he wouldn't succeed and quite surprised him when I proved myself a good prophet. His mind was on the busi- ness we were going to hash over, and one can't be doing two things at once. “After we had reached on agree. m™ent on the business dea), Brown went over to the set and got his sta- tion. He tried to argue®that his luck was due to the fact that it was later In the evening when reception gen- erally is better. But T don't believe that had much te do with it, for when I checked up with vou the next day T found that vou had been listening to this station all evening. That was the night you were home alone. You had told me you were planning on a real radio evening.” I see what you are driving at, you want me to be an optimist,” Smith broke in. “'Yes. but don't overde your opti- mism.” 1 cautioned him. “ It doesn't pay to assume that you are going to do wonders with the set or that vou can tune for what you want any time you want it. That's a good way to stretch your optimism until it breaks. What you must do is be in a receptive mood ‘when you are at the dials. Don’t make your radioing a stop-gap between other activities. Don't try to get DX while you're waiting for Mrs. Smith to deelde what hat she will wear. “And here’s a parting shot: “If you happen to be in a bad mood and the rest of the family wants radio let some one else operate the get. You'll simply slur over the dials and say there's nothimg worth hearing. Tt's tmportant in radio—in family radio, 1 mean—to know when to take a back | seat.” Next Week, No. 84: The Antenna System.
