WTIC PLEDGES ANNUAL GIFT OF 310,000 TO SY!PHONY Station WTIC has pledged '510,000 per year for the next three years to the Symphony Society of Connecticut to help finance the recently reorganized Hart¬ ford Symphony Orchestra, NEW 50,000 WATT FL NO N-COI LERCIAL STATION IN CHICAGO Chicago's first and only 50,000 watt FI. s tat ion, WliBI-FN, recently went on tho air. Since 1943 the 1 ,'oody Bible Institute has operated the station at 1000 watts in connection with its 5000 watt A1 outlet, WLBI. While the ceiling power allow¬ ed in Chicago by the FCC is 40,000 watts with a 500 foot antenna, WI BI-FI.' was granted a permit to operate at 50,000 watts because its antenna was only 490 feet high. Antenna and transmission lino to bo used in tho enlarged station operation wore invented by WiFi's chief engineer, A. P. Frye and received the approval of tho FCC. According to Frye, tho WIBI transmitter will carry 10,000 watts and will actually run at 7,500*watts. However, with the multi-bay antenna which Frye has invented the power will be multiplied 8 times. Allowing for some line loss, total ERP will bo 50,000 watts. The new antenna consists of a total of 32 folded dipoles of copper pipe attached to the four sides of tho original WMBI tower at intervals of seven and a half feet. . ' . Using. this antenna gives tho effect of multiplying the power by eight. „_ TRAN SFER OF VOICE OF AI ERICA” RECChi ENDED BY HOOVER C0UIISCION Transfer of the State Department's international information program, including shortwave broadcasting and motion pictures, to an independent Government cor¬ poration, has been recommended by the Committee on Organization of the Executive Branches headed by former President Herbert Hoover.
