RADIO EXPERT | aie Ser fee ON STAR STAFF: oa Announcing the Opening of ON BEAUTIFUL PUGET SOUND America’s Foremost Radio Authority A thing which puzzles many radio fans is their ability to receive concert programs from a broadcasting station one! night and their inability to get anything from the same station the following night. In some cases the credit for the reception is given to the receiving equipment, while in other the novice assumes that the success is the result of his own skill. Many receivers have been discarded for no better types) because of the failure of a particular set to get these nightly }concerts regularly.

Godley’s hold on the hearts of America’s radio fans is largely explained by the fact that he refused to patent his regenerative receiver, because he wanted them to have its full benefits at the lowest possible cost! He wanted nothing for himself but a clear field to make better and better radio outfits.
