Daring the intermissions of the long musical programme {rom Schenectady many amateur operators en route were communicated with by means of the small transmitting set and some in- Yeresting conversations in code and voice were held. Both reception and transmission was almost perfect, and not-once was it necessary to repeat or ask to have repeated any of the “ver- al gr dot and dash traffic.” During the trip a special message sent over the un “Amateur Relay Route” ved from the Lackawanna si tendent's office.

This proves con- sively that radio's penetrating power is only partly understood at the present time and it has many uses not yet thought of.
