86 THE RADIO DEALER July, 1922 THE MEN BEHIND " ARECO " The new factory of the American Radio and Electric Company, which was opened at Union Hill, N. J., last month, is busily at work producing the radio equipment that the company sends out into the world as the " Areco " products. Convinced that radio is here, and here to stay, the company is earnestly spending its energies in perfecting both its products and its organization of distribution. Milton Stilwell, an electrical engineer of repute who has devoted many years to wireless and electrical apparatus, is in charge of the technical work at the Union Hill factory, while at the New York office, 1 133 Broadway, the Siamese twins of Butler and Baldwin are in command. George G. Hyde is consulting engineer for the company. With this array of talent the American Radio and Electric Company is one of the outstanding companies in the field. Their "Areco" crystal sets, tube detectors, variometers, horns, grid leaks and amplifiers show the quality of the men behind. HIGH GRADE CRYSTAL SET The Regal Junior crystal receiving set manufactured by the American Specialty Mfg. Co., of Bridgeport, Conn., is the result of months of experimental work on the part of their engineering staff. This set has been tested under all conditions and it is claimed that it will receive concerts, music and all news of the day from all broadcasting stations clearly and distinctly within a radius of 25 to 40 miles. Code messages are distinctly heard on this set over a distance of 800 to 1,000 miles. The set is designed to overcome the. objections commonly attributed to crystal receiving sets, and this company, with its thirty years' experience in electrical precision work, stands back of this set with an absolute guarantee. The set sells for $20.00, complete with one set of Federal head phones of 2,000 ohms, and is enclosed in a mahogany finished cabinet. CANADA TAKES UP RADIO The charge that Canada has been slow to take up radio is no longer true. Eastern Canada is soon to be transformed into a network of 360 metre wave lengths, while in Western Canada newspapers of enterprising character are taking it upon themselves to do the broadcasting. Such a paper is the " Manitoba Free Press," which is now broadcasting as well as conducting a daily radio department in its columns. DEALERS ! JOBBERS !
