The statement proceeds:- Several Bills considered in part last session will be revived by resolution, and, where necessary new amendments will be added. Among other matters engaging the serious attention of Ministers, and upon which it is intended at a later date to make proposals of an important character, that of Defence (29) . is specially deserving of reconsideration, particularly in view of recent developments.

   LONELY GOATHERD. Serving the Lights (Walkabout, August) brought back memories of boyhood years spent at several “outside” lighthouses. Memories of scrambling ashore from a workboat, removing the water pipes between the roof and the fresh water tanks when gales threw spray from the ocean over the house tops, rounding up the milking goats, and being in bed with whooping cough when the nearest doctor was miles away across the turbulent ocean, have tumbled again through my mind. Before Cape York, the lighthouse tender about which the article tells, there was the Lady Loch, later used as a barge on the Brisbane River. Before Lady Loch, there was the Despatch, which was later wrecked at the mouth of Lakes Entrance in Gippsland, Victoria. F. W. STEVENS, Glen Iris, Vic.

### Benson Thesis

   F. W. STEVENS: F. W. Stevens was appointed as Chief Engineer at 4QG in 1925. His interest in wireless began in 1901, when he was three years old. He recalled an incident when the Duke of York (later King George V) visited Australia. Stevens lived at the Point Lonsdale Lighthouse, Port Phillip Heads. Wishing to welcome the visitors in a novel way, "a small set of apparatus was erected at the Signal Station at Point Lonsdale ... and an aerial was swung from the flag pole ... it was not until the steamer's smoke was dimly visible in the distance that communication was established between ship and shore." How influential this early experience really proved is a matter for conjecture. Stevens commenced his career with the PMG's Department in Melbourne prior to the commencement of World War I. During the war he was unable to enlist, but since he had studied wireless, the Naval . . .

### History of Radio in South Australia - Ross

Haire features prominently in Ross' definitive history of Radio in South Australia - 1897-1978
   WIRELESS INSTITUTE OF AUSTRALIA (S.A. DIVISION) . . . There were many well constructed experimental stations in operation including those belonging to (a) Mr. L.C. Jones of Hawthorn with call sign XVB, (b) Mr. A.H. Evans of Mile End with XVD, (c) Mr. E.R. Stanton of Enfield with XVN, (d) Mr. W.H. Haire with an installation at the Empire Theatre in Grote Street, (e) Mr. C.J. Othen of Glanville with XVT, (f) Mr. J.W. Hambly-Clark at Kent Town with XVX and (g) Mr. A.W.J. McArdle of Kilkenny. . . . (d) Mr. Haire was a well known experimenter. His XVA installation in the city used an antenna supported by two wooden masts on top of the Empire Theatre and it could be seen as a land mark from a long distance. Although the transmitter at first used only an ordinary car ignition coil, Mr. Haire was able to work ships many kilometres out to sea. These ignition coils were very popular with early experimenters. The core of the coil comprised a bundle of soft iron wires about one centimetre in diameter and about 12 cm long. The primary was about three to six ohms resistance and wound with several layers of double cotton covered copper wire of about 18 SWG. The secondary with a resistance of about 2000 ohms was wound with several pies of fine cotton covered wire in series and wound up to an outside diameter of about 5 cm. The configuration of the secondary varied according to the method of manufacture. The usual arrangement was for the coil together with a tin foil and paper condenser wired across the vibrator contacts to be placed inside a wooden casing and the space filled with a bituminous compound. The vibrator was mounted on the top of the box. The contacts were made of platinum-iridium and a knurled screw with locknut allowed a fine adjustment to be made of the air gap spacing. The spark coil had a range of only about 16 km and Mr. Haire later modified the equipment to increase the radiated power. He powered it from the generator used to operate the theatre picture equipment. The plant was located in one of the rooms under the stage. Mr. Haire was one of the first experimenters in Adelaide to obtain a De Forest Audion tube. He experimented with it for some time during 1912-13 but with little success. He passed it on to Mr. Stanton who carried on the work. Mr. Stanton placed a high resistance potentiometer with a sliding contact across the B battery. He was able to hear transmissions from VIA but at a level which was below that obtainable with his crystal. Although experiments continued for some time, little improvement was achieved. These very early tubes were soft types and ionization occurred whenever the B voltage was raised too high. The most sensitive spot for the plate voltage was just below the ionization point or when a blue glow showed inside the tube.

### Radio Broadcast Technology - Ross

4PG features briefly in a schedule of Brisbane amateur broadcasters in 1930 in Jack Ross' definitive "Radio Broadcast Technology"
   Progress in experimental broadcasting by the Amateurs was dramatic. The number of transmitters operating in the 200 metre band increased rapidly and to minimise interference problems, leading Amateurs transmitted on a co-operative roster basis. . . . In Brisbane during mid 1930, the following Amateur broadcasters were active:
   * Tom Starkie, Toombul, (4NW), 249.9 metres, nightly and weekends.
   * Pat Golden, Wynnum, (4PG), 245.8 metres, weekends.
   * Wooloowin Radio Club, (4WN), 241.8 metres, Thursday and Sunday.
   * Cec Morris, Rosalie, (4LW), 238 metres, nightly and weekends.
   * George Hams, Northgate, (4GW), 234.2 metres, nightly.
   * Harold Walsh, Hamilton, (4HW), 230.6 metres, nightly and weekends.
   * Bob Browne, Toowong, (4RE), 227.1 metres, nightly and weekends.
   * G Oxlade, Newmarket, (4GO), 223.7 metres, nightly and weekends.
   * Bruce Munro, Hawthorne, (4AL), 220.4 metres, nightly.
   * Frank Nolan, Spring Hill, (4JU) 217.3 metres, weekends.
   * Cliff Gold, Hill End, (4CG), 214.2 metres, weekends.
   * Bill Young, West End, (4WA) 202.6 metres, nightly.
