Plans Changes to Eliminate “Wave Wab- blings” on Coast. Only slight attention was directed to the recent absorption of the Inde- pendent Wireless Telegraph Co. by the Radio Corporation of America. To the radio listeners along the Eastern sea- board, however, the purchase of the as- sets and_stations of the marine radio concern held more than passing signifi- cance. It meant an immediate step toward eliminating interference to broadcast listeners by marine coast station: whose code transmissions often devial into the broadcasting wave band and spoil the reception of programs. Code emanating from spark transmitters is the sort of thing that cannot be tuned or filtered out of a program of speech or_music. In_purchasing the Independent Co. the Radio Corporation of America an- nounced its intention of replacing the spark transmitters of the stations at New York, New London, Conn, and East Moriches, Long Island, with mod- n tube transmitters. These prevent “wave wabbling” in the ether, holding | the dots and dashes to their regulation frequencies. The replacement is in ac- cord with the spirit of the recent inter- national radiotelegraph convention re- | cently drawn up in Washington. The Independent Wireless Telegraph | Co. will hereafter be operated as an R. C. A. subsidiary, known as the Radio- marine Corporation of America, with headquarters in New York. Its heac Charles J. Pannill, is to continue as vice president and general manager. Mr. Pannill is one of radio’s pioneers and | holder of the first radio operator's license ever issued by the Department of Commerce. The company was one of the lmrgvsx1 independent wireless telegraph com- | panies in the world, operating radio | equipment on approximately 600 ships and at five shore stations and furnish- ing radio maintenance to 850 ships and shore stations in all parts of the world. | | Through these shore stations and through a tie-up with a telegraph com. pany it is possible to reach a ship or a passenger in midocean in virtually any part of the world. Equipment of both ship and shore stations with tube transmission to re- place the obsolescent spark sets wa: urged at the recent international con- | ference in Washington, to which prac- | tically every civilized nation in the | world sent “delegates. It was agreed | that ultimately the spark sets must go, | but time was given in order to make | the replacements without too great loss | of invested capital. American ship | wireless is rapidly being transformed to meet modern conditions, most alreadv having the tube sending apparatus which maintains them on a constant | frequency. It has been alleged that a large part of the Atlantic and Pacific coastal interference to broadcasting emanated from foreign ships, over which the American Government could exercise no control.
