RADIO EXPORTS SET NEW HIGH RECORD Shipments to Foreign Countries for March $633,695 Over Last Year. Large shipments of radio apparatus figured in the setting of a new high rec- grd far electrical equipment exports from the United States during March. Radio shipments amounted to $1,486,898, or $633,695 more than the same month last year, and the total for the first three months of the year was $3,849,896, or $1,594,347 more than the exports of the same period in 1928. A large increase in the exports of trans- mitting sets and parts is attributed to 2 great extent to broadcasting activities in the Philippine Islands, Brazil and Russia, the Department of Commerce says. Next to Canada, Argentina was the largest importer of receivers, takin, $90,943 worth, while Italy, with $73,889, Wwas next. ‘WEAF to Present “Nathan Hale.” The four-act drama “Nathan Hale, first produced in 1899, will be presented as the Memorial day feature of the con- cert bureau program on WEAF and sta- tions Thursday night. ;4 ““, 09 Major “Chain” Features TODAY 3:00—Cathedral hour; Pales- trina program—WMAL and C.

HITS SHORT-WAVE RADIO RECEIVERS |Engineer Says They Must Go, to Curb Interference in High-Frequency Bands. | NEW YORK (#)—Short-wave re- | ceivers which radiate large amounts 280.2—WTAM-WEAR Cleveland—1,070 of power will have to be discarded be- fore serious interference can be elimi- nated in the high-frequency bands, says | John V. L. Hogan, radio engineer. About 90 per cent of the receivers now in use at frequencies above 1,500 | kilocycles, which is the end of the pro- gram broadcast band, are capable of radiating substantial amounts of power that disturb reception at many points | around them, Mr. Hogan says. Ra- diating receivers, he points out, have been eliminated to a large extent in the broadcast band. “The heterodyne interferences pro- | duced by the use of such receivers in the high frequencies may destroy long- | distance telephonic or telegraphic re- ception, may cast a blanketing pattern on the screen of a television receiver or may spoil a musical program being re- broadc: to thousands of listeners,” he said. High Frequency Coming “In the vast high-frequency range above 1.500 kilocycles, which is rapidly coming into more and more extensive use, the principles taught by expe- rience in broadcasting should be care- fully applied. The strictest frequency requirements commensurate with the state of the art should be made and duplicate station assignments to the same channel must be scrutinized with care if unnecessary interference is to be avoided. “It is particularly important to keep clear the channels assigned to long-dis- tance public radiotelephony, to the various radio picture services being de- veloped and to relay broadcasting. “The elimination of radiating re- celvers, proper spacing of channels, strict carrier frequency control and thoughtful geographical assignments will go far to prevent the development of heterodyne interference problems in this newest field of radio.” D. C. VOTE AIR TOPIC OF TWO SENATORS Cnppér and Jones Will Discuss National Representation Next Friday Night. National representation for the Dis- trict of Columbia will be discussed in the “Half Hour With the Senate,” to be broadcast from coast to coast by the National Broadcasting Co. next Friday night at 9:30 o'clock. The speakers will be Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas and Senator Wesley L. Jones of Washington. Both are closely identified with affairs in the Dis- of the Senate District committee. Sen- ator Jones also is a member of this committee. A new presiding officer for these pro- grams also will be heard when Senator Jesse E. Metcalf of Rhode Island offi- ciates in place of Russell M. Arundel, executive secretary of the Senate broad- casting committee. Senator Metcalf is chairman of the Senate committee on broadcasting and began last week to officiate on the regular “Half Hour With the Senate” of the National Broadcast- ing Co.

Although scientists greeted with smil- | ing skepticism the recent experiments| of an Englishman in wireless communi- | cation with Mars, the “master minds” | of radio are speculating upon the prob- | ability of signals speeding millions of | miles to that and other planets. Dr. E. O. Hulburt, physicist at the Naval Research Laboratory, has gone so far as to calculate radio communic: tion’ conditions on Mars. His calcul tions are based on a study of atmos- pheric_conditions at the surface of the “neighbor” planet caused py the ultra- violet light of the sun. Owing to the supposed density of the TRANSOCEAN RADID NETWORK PLANNED Technical Difficulties Seen as Causing Delay in Start- ing Programs. BY C. E. BUTTERFIELD, (Associated Press Radio Editor.) Before another Winter is well under way, an interchange of radio programs with Europe will be in effect. At least | that's the interpretation placed on the trips overseas by N. B. C. officials. Technical difficulties, together with Summer static and less reliable recep- tion, are holding up definite announce- | ments as to when the exchange will | start. _Present plans call for the transmis- sion at certain periods of American | programs to Europe and at other times the reception and rebroadcasting on American networks of programs com- ing from England and other coun- | tries. Frequent Announcements. At the start of the service it is ex- pected that programs will be rather spontaneous, but later it is hoped to have them on a regular schedule, with more frequent announcements than in the first chain rebroadcasting of 2LO. It seems that so far in the experi- ments Europe has had better luck in picking up American music and talks than has been the case on this side. Those who know say that the reason is that America has more powerful trans- mitters. Radio Circuit Opened. Some day the sender of a message to an intracontinental American eity will have to stop and puzzle whether it will go by wire or radio. If the message is from New*York to San Francisco, he does not have to wait for that “some day.” R. C. A. Communications, Inc., has opened a radio message and radio photo service between New York, Boston, Washing- ton and San Francisco in competition with wire lines. The “some day” had reference to other cities in the country, 30 of which it is planned later to link into the invistble radio circuit. ‘Tricks Doomed. When the drama goes on the radio its “bag of tricks” for the proper noise bfickground looks like a discarded junk pile. Chains, broken glas, sheet iron, water and a thousand and one other things | whose usefulness in the studio might be questionable, are to be found in the | props cabinet of the radio noise maker. | Besides, there are bells of many pitches, whistles, keys and linoleum on | the floor to reproduce the sound of | footsteps. ‘There is no end to the sounds that the simplest thing will reproduce for | the radio. Not long ago WABC sought | to represent a man walking in heavy | armor. After six hours of tests, a bunch | of keys did the stunt. i “Cavalcade” Will Return. “The Cavalcade,” formed in the earlier days of WEAF and regarded as an important feature, will return to the air Saturday evening. The program atmosphere there, which causes radio| waves below 100 meters to skip, Dr.| Hulburt figures that conditions on Mars are not suited to short-wave communi- cation. The conclusion is drawn that the Martians, if such a people exist, | have no radio apparatus for waves be- low 100 meters. | He then points out that waves longer | than about 100 meters will not pierce the atmosphere of the earth. This| leads to the. conclusion that “only a | very optimistic experimenter would look | for’ successful wireless communication | between the earth and Mars.” 1 From Dr. J. H. Dellinger of the Bu-! | reau of Standards comes the statement | that “some of the long-echo signals re- | corded have been interpreted by some | as indicating radio wave paths extend- |ing out from the earth farther than the moon and back.” Whether this is correct or not, he| says, the scientists now have a vision of radio measurements as an instru-| ment not alone for use on the earth, but for exploring the depths of space. To the radio amateurs who did so | much in the development of short-wave | communications the scientists now 10ok | for aid in investigating some of the mysteries of the universe. Dr. A. E.| Kennelly of Harvard University believes | that as time goes on specially equipped | amateurs will help in the cosmic re- searches. | Monday Evening, Models 36, 38, 40 and leading Radio Retailer or six weeks and guara Exhibition after 2 ve I \\5\ P,'\'i\ C‘\G Everything of tainment was never cially ATWATER and MAJESTIC! trouble.” demonstration . will be a 60-minute review, and will have listeners on the Pacific Coast. you?
