BY ROBERT MACK. Additiona’ millions are being poured | into radio broadcasting by most of the 600 stations in the United States to at- tain technical perfection in operations. That broadcasting is an expensive {business and a hazardous one is at- tested to by the fact that some $75,- 000,000 is expended annually for pro- grams offered the public. But perhaps equally as large an expenditure is in- volved in the installation of new trans- mitters and studio fittings—that side lc‘!'. und\o about which the public hears e. So switt is the march of radio prog- ress that replacements and alterations in technical apparatus are being made almost constantly. Innovations de- signed to improve service may be rendered obsolete within a month and depreciation in apparatus is estimated at about 25 per cent annually. Committee Reports Costs. What it costs to run a radio station from the technical side is estimated for the first time in the new report of the Advisory Committee on Engineering Developments to the National Advisory Council on Radio in Education, made up of the Nation's foremost radio en- gineers. While the committee strikes general averages as to the cost of sta- tions in the various power categories, it makes clear, however, that conditions yet are too unstable in this young in- dustry to set down any fixed evaluations. A " 50,000-watt station—the most powerful licensed—represents an in- vestment and a first year operating cost of $634,150, according to the com- mittee. And it must be remembered that this does not include program or talent costs, but simply the cost of technical maintenance, together with the cost of the apparatus itself. 5,000 Watts Cost $281,100. A 5,000-watt station, by the same deduction, represents an annual outlay, including investment, of $281,100. A 1,000-watt "r'[lnnl]" station costs 5 9,300 for the first year. No com- ons are made for lower powered mtmm The capital investment for a 50,000~ watter is estimated at $338,000. Annual maintenance and operating costs for an avcrage 12-hour day for the same category of station is computed at $296,150. Of this figure, $213,150 repre- sents “plant” expenditures and $83,000 for studios and offices. A 5,000-watt station has a total an- nual cost on a minimum schedule of five hours’ operation daily of $125,000, of which $73,100 is for plant and $52,000 for studios and offices. On the basis of a 10-hour day, this cost would b increased to $154,100. 1,000-Watt Station. ‘The 1,000-watt station expends an average of $49,050 as its total annual cost on minimum schedule of five hours daily. Of this figure $24,150 represents plant and $24,900 studios and offices. Increased to a 10-hour operating sched- ule, the cost would be $64,400. Equipment expenditures by stations have been increased becaus of recent actions of the Federal Radio Commis- sion, setting down rigid requirements as to station efficiency. __ (copyrisni i1y i931) ILOW PRICE OF MATERIALS SPEEDING AIRPORT WORK Greatest Sums Being Spent by Mu- nicipal Governments, Aero C. of C. Reports. Atrport operators throughout the country are taking advantage of the decline in the price of building mate- rials to imprové their property, accord- ing to reports from nearly 100 cities reaching the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce. Last Spring more than $2,000,000 was spent in airport con- struction. ‘The greatest sums are being spent by municipal governments on construction of hangars, runways, drainage systems and radio stations. Oklahoma City is spending $580,000 on improvements and Chicago $426.000. Other cities making large expenditures for landing-field im- provements are: Boston, $200,000; Fort Worth, Tex., $175,000; Burbank, Calif., $155,000; San Francisco Bay Airdrome, Alameda, Calif., $125,000; Denver, $85,- 1700; Mobile, Ala., $79,500. e THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.
