The popularity of the contest &hown by the fact that more thanj 400 fans attempted to identify the stations listed during the week. A creat majority of them, however, ap. Parently made a blind guess. For in Mance, the first station which the mtestants were asked to identify froadcast a concert by the Reading Rallway Band. Some of the fans as eomed that the band gave its con @art somewhere in Pennsylvania. and Yioe replies received by the contest| editor listed practically every station in the State, the Philadelphia broad casters predominating. The list of sta tions selected during the week, which will be published with thé announce- ment of the winner, will show that the band did not play at any station in Pennsylvania.

Consequently higher power ap- proaching 50 kilowatts is believed es- sentlal for stations which serve many distant listeners or which strive to provide anything like State-wide or national programs. Field strengths, or the actual poten- tial of a radio wave recelved on a set, should be of 10,000 or more micro- volts to be desirable and free from interference so as to insure reliable, year-round reception, the report of the telephone engineers, written by Lloyd Espenschied, states. The dis- tance at which this requirement 1s met, of course, depends upon the power of the transmitter. For example, the re- liable range of a one-kilowatt trans. mitter is between 10 and 20 miles, depending upon the absorption of the emitted signals; and the common 500- watt broadcaster is held entirely t®o small to adequately serve large areas. 204 [ A two-kilowatt station would increase 594 |the rellable reception range by but | 204 | few miles, while a 5kilowatt trans- 403 [mitter might cover a zone with a 03 | radius of 40 miles, and a 20-kilowatt 05 | set_a circle with an 80-mile radius. 42 | It should be added that a fleld strength 2 ' i} 504 204 | 4] i [of onetenth the desirable strength 2 | might carry to about 80 miles from a 97 | five-kilowatt station and still be audi- 3 | ble, although not relfable or satls- 204 | tactory for music. 204 Crux of Operators. 123| Unfortunately the increased range 204 | 8¢S up very slowly with the increase igs | of power. Even if there were no ab- 390 { sorption, the range of a station would Increase only as the square root of 204 | the increase in power. To extend the 694 110,000-microvolt fleld, or desirable re- 142 | ception strength, from 15 to 30 miles 195 | would require an increase in power 303 | from 5 kilowatts to 100 kilowatts. 204 [ This 1s, of course, discouraging to the 204 | operators of broadcast stations who 123 | buy their electric power or think of increasing their transmitted energy 204 | bY purchasing more powerful equip- ment so as to reach out into other land and gain new listeners. In general this technical 204 | recommends’ that a station be rated 204 lat least 5-kilowatt, if a community 594 | 1ying 40 miles in any direction is to be g | SUPPHed with audible daily programs 123 | regardless of absorption. It is prob- 937 | able that ordinarily the programs 142 | could be recelved up to about 100 204 | miles and perhaps 500 occasionaliy 38% | well enough to serve, but mot with 471 208 e report the reliability desired by radio en- gineers or critical listeners. Increases Are Required. Twenty and fifty kilowatt stations are decidedly in order now, the report 594 | continues, by broadcasters desiring to 04 | INSUre good reception at greater dis- 301 | tances. " Such increases in power will i23 | be required, it‘is held, if the broad- 892 | casting art is to be advanced to meet '153 the higher standards of the future. 3 No greater interference “between 389 | stations would be caused by higher 03 | power, if the increase in power was 123 | general among all stations. The inter- ference difficulty today arises only in 204 | particular cases where one station 393 | suddenly makes a large increase in 321 | power while the others remain at 504 | thelr previous low-power levels, Mr. Espenschied explains. 204 | One of the greatest difficulties en- 710 | countered today is due to the plural- WMAL—Washington Radio Forum (2939 Meters). 730 to 8:30 p.m.—Concert by the ‘Wardman Park Little Symphony Or- chestra.

NEW PHONE SERVICE STIRS INTEREST HERE Transatlantio Radiotelephony Wel- comed by Federal Experts in Capital. ; Keen interest was manifested in ‘Washington in the newly inaugurated Transatlantic wireless telephone serv- ice, even though the proposed ex- change of greetings between President Coolidge and King George was not finally arranged as the initial conver- sation. Government technical men, notably Army and Navy experimenters who have done work of their own on two- way radiotelephony, evinced particu- lar satisfaction in the consummation in a commercial way of an advance in radlo they long foresaw. One of their most interesting experiments along this line worked out a system where- by an aviator might keep in verbal communication with a land station during the flight of his plane. On the part of those in the Govern- ment who are concerned with the Na- tion’s business, they looked to the new system as another business and trade promotional unit that provides a quicker and better means for an ex- change of information and opinion be- :ween business men and bankers in the two countries, The diplomatic people are somewhat dublous as to the transatlantic tele- phone’s probable utility to them be- cause it lacks the element of privacy at Its present stage of development. Secrecy, of course, is the essence of diplomacy. Only New York and London are now connected, but the highly developed telephone connections in the United States and the newly developing tele- phone cables from England to Ger- many and nearly the whole of conti- nental Europe make more than mere speculation the possibility of extending the service to many countries, in the view of experts he; R T Patrol Boats Have Radio: Practically all of the United States Coast Guard vessels, including most of the 75-foot patrol boats, used in chasing rum runners, are now radio equipped. Some of the vessels have two installations and most of them can communicate with the shore.sta- tions or other craft for a distance of about 3,000 miles. Some of the Guard cutters in Alaska are heard in Seattle, but these circuits are not held reliable the year round. If It Isn’t Right Bring It ) '816 F St. N. Console 5- tube—built-in speaker — American two - tone walnut $79.95 | Back RADID IMPORTANT LCHTHOUSE ELP Sets Used to Communicate With Ships at Sea and to Amuse Keepers. tadio has come to be a very impor- tant adjunct to the United States Lighthouse Service. It is used exten- sively in the operation of about 30 radio beacons, on board the tenders for communication and in the many lighthouses as a means of entertaining the keepers, whose lives are quite dr: and dreury, isolated as they are from the rest of the world. The bureau, Commissioner Putnam states, now operates 29 radio beacons, utilized by many American and for- elgn_ships when approaching our shores in darkness or fog. These bea- cons, 13 of which are new, emit special and distinctive radio signals at estab- lished intervals, charted as are the many navigational lights. Of course, the use of radio compasses or direction finders is required on the part of the ships, but about 400 American flag vessels are now equipped with radio compasses, besides many foreign ships. Upon hearing a radio beacon signal, the navigator or master is able to iden- tify it, and can readily determine its exact bearing from his vessel by turn- ing his compass cofls until he gets a maximum signal. An error of about 1 degree is usually allowed. Frequent bearings are sometimes necessary to establish the exact position of course desired when approaching shoals, channels or the entrance to a port, or bearings on two separate points or beacons are taken. Off New York ves- sels making that port first pick up and locate the radio beacon signals from the Nantucket Shoals Lightship, when 800 or 400 miles at sea. They get the Fire Island signal when nearer shore, and finally those of the Ambrose Chan- nel Light Vessel. A new radio beacon is being Installed in Long Island Sound for the vessels using that inside route to and from New York. The active beacons are distributed pretty well along dangerous points on our coast lines; there are nine on the Pacific, one in Alaska, nine on the At- lantic, two in the Gulf and eight on the Great Lakes. New installations are being made in Hawail, off the Florida coast and on some of the keys, two in Lake Michigan and one in Lake Superior. The beacon system on the lakes, al- though relatively only one full season old, is reported as satisfactory, many lake boats being equipped with radio compasses to ald in navigation. Re- sults on the lakes are almost as suc- cessful as with sea-going vessels, in which service all of the transoceanic passenger ships are equipped with both radio transmitters and com- passes. Life in the lighthouses, even those distant from our shores, is far happier today than it was a year or two ago, due to the generosity of two big radio manufacturers and a number of indi- viduals, who have contributed about 200 receivers for use in the unequip- ped lights on our shores and on light vessels lying off the coasts. Practical- ly all these posts are now supplied ith radio sets, and through a recent gift by & New York woman of a check amounting to $12,000, all the necessary accessories have been secured by the service. No funds for supplying radio receivers and their fairly expensive ac- cessories are furnished by Congress. —_— ST Y oneTess.

NEW YORK, January 8 (#).— Slightly more than $205 a line was paid for poetry here when the Rosenbach Company bought the original autographed manuscript of a nine-line unpublished poem by Ed- gar Allan Poe for $1,860. The same company also paid $900 for the manu- eript of Walt Whitman's essay, Edgar Poe's Significance.’ PATENTS ARE GRANTED ON RADIANT TELEPHONY Rights on New Method for Secve: Communication Given to ‘Hammond. The patents covering & method and means of establishing secret radiant telephony, applied for by John Hays Hammond, jr., of Gloucester, Masa., in 1922, have just been fssued b: United States Patent Office. They are listed as Patents 1612,284-5 and are quite technical in their many specifi cations and drawings. Basically they cover a method of secret communication via radfant telephony. The means and apparatus appear closely related to ordinary radio, except that the generator and transmitter utilize radiant energy, the high-frequency oscillations of which are subject to periodic changes. Ev! dently the receiving apparatus is kept in tune with the transmitter by simi lar means of periodically changing its setting. Apparatus not so equipped could not be shifted accurately nor rapidiy enough to pick up sufficlent successive signals to make the volce messag.- comprehensible, hence the secrecy London has a movement toward the shortening of automoblles, the prevail ing type being too long for many of its narrow streets.
