TIN ROOF AERIAL. The tin roof of a new Fifth Avenve bus has proved to be an excellent aerial for radio concerts, This was revealed {n. experiments conducted Tuesday af }ternoon on coach No. 805, which has been nicknamed ‘The Petters’ Para- dise" because of its inclosed upper deck construction. This was selected for the radio experiments which were conduct- ed under the supervision of John A Ritche, President of the bus company, and E. C. Buychignant of the Radio Show. In preparation for ® demonstra- tion for the public during the week of the show, electricians found that con- trary to the usual practice no aerta Wires were needed for catching the elu- sive waves that carry the concerts and WP news. matter that have become a part * of the dally entertainment of the west- erm hemisphere. ‘The radio equipped bus will be pressed into service starting Monday. If the experiment, which wil run for the week, is successful It is more than probable that radio will be installed on ul! buses for the amuse- ment of the patrons of the line. Ne extra charge will be made for the music REGULARS TO DRILL BY RADIO. A detachment of regulars from Gov- ernor’s Island will be put thr tons of the L. © R, and n arms at the 7ist ‘giment Armory dur- ing the Radio Show by commands given by officers of the staff of Major Gen. Robert Lee Bullard trom a distant broadcasting station. Army authorities are anxious to test the success of such a method of directing troops and to try out eeveral other novel forms of direct communication without the aid of wires, A-LETTER CONCERNING WHO WAS FIRST. In The Evening World Radio Phone Service Column I have noted with terest the claims of various stations to priority in the field of regular radio broadcasting of news and music. For the information of «ll concerned there is w broadcast- ing station right here in our own city that used to broadeast regular- ly during 1915, 1916 and 1917. That station belongs to the De Forest Radio Telephone and ‘Telegraph Company in the Bronx, From this station I heard the election returns of the Presidential election of 1916. Baseball scores, news and music were hroudcasted every night from this station between the hours of 8 and 9 o'clock ‘d game, the last e@ before our entrance Into the World War, was transmitted over this radio set How is it that jon as impor- tant in the early lopment of adio and with as great a record 1s ‘orgotten 50 soon? AN OLD TIMER IN RADIO. RADIO TO TRY TO LOCATE LOST VETERAN. Radio has been put to no end of spectacular uses. Not long ago a little woman who had been lost to her {amily for many years was located in Middie t by the use of radio. h this success of radio's power in ynind,- the mother of Jacques Montser- rat, a veteran of the World War who served in the navy, has made an ap- peal through the K. of C, to try and jogate her son, who has not been heard from since June of last year, The missing man took a radio course ‘at the K. of C, War Veterans School in New York and was enguged pre- sumably as ® radio vperator on a pri- yate yacht last summer, His principal hobby was radio, and jis mother believes that co-operation of radio fans throughout country will eventually locate her s All of the K, of C. radio schools will conduct 4 vigorous campaign through the ether to try and locate Montserrat, RACING TOMCRROW ar JAMAICA $6,000 STUY VESANT HANDICAP CASTLETON PURSE AND 4 OTHEK #LNE RACES Leg.nning at 2.30 r.

What additional apparatus will 1 nedd to convert this Into a vacuum, tube set? What kind of a tube shall 4 set and what {fs the beat hook-up for these Instruments?’ Answes—The following hook-up {s the one that you want: If you do not care to construct @ tickler cot!, which should be placed in proximity to the secondary of the inductance and contain «_ proxl- mately one-quarter the number of turns of the secondary coll, connect the plate lead directly to the positive side of your “B" batteries. In addition to the in- struments that you have you will need & grid leak and fixed condenser, a volt "A" battery, a 22-volt * tery, @ vacuum tube socket and a com- bination detector amplifying tube, Note—This hook-up has been requested by thirty-two others in the last few days.

Bureau the Uni Fiddle,” dren, H, Stolt! planist FH. 8., clty—T have a regenerative set consisting of a detector and two stages of amplification. I purchased a light- ning arrester that has been passed by the fire underwriters and have hooked it up according to requirements, and would like to know if it Is now safe to listen-In during a thunder storm? Answer—While lightning 1s known to take the shortest and most direct path to the earth there 1s no way of making sure that It will not change its course under certain conditions, which, would result disastrously not only to the re- ceiving set but also to your personal safety. My advice wherever an out- door aerial is used ts to disconnect the Instrument during all electrical dis- turbances. With an indoor aerial you can continue operations regardless of thunderstorms, but not otherwise. Name Broadcat Fan, Yonkers—Can I use plate glass for a panel Instead of bakelite?
