34 HIGH-POWERED ERA INBROADCAST SEEN Capital Area May Get 5,000- Watt Transmitter of WEAF at Gotham. An ora of high-powered broadcast- ing is forecast by Commissioner H. A. Bellows as the coming thing on the program side of radio. The success of recent experiments on the higher powers, especially in the matter of interference, has definitely convinced the Federal Radio Commission that | ; there is room for more stations of this | acter. | » to 5000 watts output intere ference that is set up by stations | operating on the same wave lengths | is almost proportionate to the sta- | tion's power, Beyond this limit the interfarence is no greater and blanket- ing does not seem to present enough hindrance to the use of more power, according to Mr. Bellows. ignificant to Fan. adio fan the new! among members of the | ignificant.

Hich power such as Statlon WGY encctady has Deen using— watts, or 100 kilowatts—ap- y b proved that programs ©an earry over substantially wide effective o with greater consist- ency than low power affords. Long distance is not as great a factor, in the opinion of Mr. Bellows, as the de- velopment of a means of broadcasting which will override ordinary natural interferences, such as statie, and make it possible for persons within a radius of perhaps 150 miles of the high-powered station to receive its ms more regularly and more clearly modulated. Reception Held Enhanced. For Station WGY, which has been experimenting under a special license granting it the 100 kilowatts of power, making it the highest transmitter in the country, it is claimed that its newly-developed modulation tubes have enhanced its reception quality very creatly. Station 2XZ, experi- menting on 50 kilowatts at Bellmore, Long Island, before being uséd about October 1 as WEAF's transmitter, has had similar good fortune insofar as modulation is concerned. It is report- ed the 5,000 watt transmitter of WEAF, now on Manhattan Island, may be moved to a point nearer Wash- ington for use by WRC. The Radio Commission has just in- definitely continued WGY's license to use the 100 kilowatts and has grant- ed KDKA, Pittsburgh, permission to increase from 30 to 50 kilowatts.

These and 2XZ are the highest : W powered among the program stations, New with WJZ, New York, having 30 kilo- , and WGN, Chicago, and WBZ, gfield, Mass., having 15 kilowatts each, the next nearest.
