Laboratories at Nutley, N.J., where the broadcast was received on Federal* s specially-designed receivers, the programs being repeated from 67 Broad Street for the group identically as they had been pre¬ sented earlier.
It was explained that PTM, as it functions today, is a method of radio communication which involves the transmission of a series of short bursts, or pulses, each approximately one-half mil¬ lionth of a second long. Unlike previous radio systems, which oper¬ ate by modulating the strength or amplitude of the wave (AM), or its rapidity of vibration or frequency (FM), PTM waves remain con¬ stant in amplitude and frequency. As the name implies, the actual communication is achieved by varying the time interval between the pulses.

WARSHIP DESIGN ADAPTED TO RADIO GUIDED ATOMIC MISSILES
Construction of the new 45,000-ton battleship KENTUCKY and the 27,000-ton battlecruiser HAWAII has been temporarily held up.
They are to be redesigned as the first atomic age warships armed with main batteries of radio guided robots instead of guns.
The theory is that the destructive power of capital ships can be increased enormously by far-reaching missiles aimed at the target by radio beams.
