England Establishes Direct Contact with New Zealand
LONDON. — Two British amateurs have achieved the record feat of exchanging Radio messages across the world. They listened to New Zealand and transmitted a reply. A cable has just arrived to the postal address Radioed from London the previous night, which confirms the almost incredible achievement.
Describing the feat, the secretary of the Radio Society of Great Britain said: E. J. Symonds, an amateur living near London, whose call sign is G20D, was
astonished on the morning of October 16 to hear the Morse call sign of Z4AG, calling up U6ARB, an American amateur station with which he was apparently in communication. He realized that for the first time an English station (home-made and with ridiculously small power) had got a message across thirteen thousand miles of space.
The first tramp steamer to be equipped with a Radio fitted motor lifeboat is the Geraldine Mary, recently designed and built for the Anglo-Newfoundland Development company.
Site for England's Super Power Station Determined
LONDON. — Britain's new super power broadcaster, to take the place of 5XX at Chelmsford (which was never intended to be more than an experimental station), is likely to be erected at Northampton.
The British Broadcasting company's engineers have examined several other suggested sites, and a final decision will be made shortly.
The new station will have a transmitting power of at least 25 kilowatts.
Walter Johnson at KHJ
LOS ANGELES, Cal.— The mighty Walter Johnson took his turn in the broadcasting studio of KHJ here recently. In a two minute speech, he expressed the desire to settle down in California when "finis" is definitely written to his major league career.
Ef f arsee for Better Reception
YOU get less noise and more music on an Effarsee Portable Antenna. It brings in stations from coast to coast on sensitive sets, and very good volume and distance on other sets.
It stops all aerial troubles in congested places and makes it easy to install a radio set. It reduces static and improves the tone. Used in series with an outdoor aerial it stabilizes and improves the signals. Every set owner should have one for nights when static is bad. In apartment houses Effarsee can be put under the rugs. Dealers are using them for demonstrations.
Three Sizes:
$1.00, $1.50 and $2.50
If your dealer cannot supply you, write us direct — money back if not satisfied.
Jobbers and Dealers: Effarsee is
going big this year and offers a
real profit opportunity.
