P, Cleveland, Ohio TT Hllllllllllllll <L Short -Wave Station 2 AG Uses Crystal Control IN A TALK given recently at Columbia University before a wellattended meeting of The Radio Club of America, C. R. Runyon, Jr., gave a detailed description of his short-wave radio station located at 544 North Broadway, Yonkers, N. Y. Seven transmitting tubes are employed, as follows : one 7.5 watt UX210 as a crystal-controlled amplifier tube; two more of the same type in the first intermediate amplifier: still greater amplification through the medium of two 50-watt tubes (UV203A) in a second intermediate stage of push-pull amplification ; and a final stage of amplification employing two 250-watt tubes (UV-204-A) in a push-pull amplifier circuit. The output of this powerful amateur short-wave transmitter is radiated from an antenna system which is suspended from the top of a 112foot mast which is erected in the rear of Mr. Runyon's home. A counterpoise is employed to increase the efficiency of this station.
