Writes Appreciation.
Dr. CUlpepper relates that ne was
so enthusiastic about one Of the re-
cent concerts from the latter sta
ton that he could not help writing
his appreciation 10 the company,
them particularly on
the playing Of a selection called
The American Legion March Three
nights later he was again listening to
Roselle Park and was surprised to
hear his own name.
DIR. Culpepper. are you listening7
Listen extra good now. we're going
to play the American Legion March
for your benefit"
c. G. Powell, Judge Hubbard, @.
F. Cunningham and c. B. STEELE who
have all acquired sets recently, re-
port favorably on the concerts. DR.. |
Sensenich is waiting imratiently for
the arrival Of his outfit, and i'm the
meantime gives glowing reports of
his neighbors' concerts. Mr. l. Fruit
Of the Electric Service Co. together !
with Mr.. r. +. Glavin, a former
navy operator, have been obtaining
excellent results with set assem- |
bled by Mr.. GIavin. Myron L. Har- /
mon Of the Y NJ. G. A. is installing /
a set as this article goes to press.
Orie Parker has been receiving
good service from the Atlantic coast /
with a Grebe receiving instrument /
Asked how he happened to become /
interested in radio. he replied that /
it all came about in one day. on a |
trip TO Chicago he met a doctor /
friend of his who was so interested /
in the subject that he took him over /
to the Edison CO. 10 show him a set
similar 10 his own. M. Parker left /
the building the owner OF a receiv- I.
ing outfit.
Youth Setting Pace.
When il comes to long distance /
receiving records, it must be admit /
ted that the younger generation IS /
setting a pace which is hard to beat /
Frank s. Lbbe has received code |
MESA es from Pearl Harbor /
from Eiffel Tower, Paris, /
and from Nauen, Germany. The /
source Of these messages is certain, /
because the sender signs the mes /
sage with his registered call num- /
ber', repeating the call number so /
often that there can be no mistake.
Clement Portman. another mem (
Der Of the younger generation, dates /
his wireless experience to the days
before the war. He began playing
with wireless when he was nine
years old, when wireless itself was
IN its infancy. His first station which f.
he installed at his home in Lowell 1
Mass, consisted Of a tomato can. a
lump Of coal and some wire with 1
this make-shift apparatus he was
able TO hear signals from ships
along the coast. With his latest re-
ceiving set he has been able 20 hear /
312 different stations i'm a month. F.
His long distance record for receiv- /
ing radio phone is a message from /
Catalina Islands, Calf, which was
transmitted by voice.
Mr. Portmau and Mr. Lbbe both I
hold government licenses as anna /
teur operators, to secure which it is .
to know the Morse Inter /
national Code and 20 comply with
certain government regulations.
Other licensed operators in South .
Bend are Kermit McDermott. Albert
Kahn. James Freyermuth, John .
Kuespert, Everett Potter and John .
Housekeeper. Edward Niespodziany
holds a commercial license and has .
operated on boats sailing to South .
America
Boys Greatly Interested.
The boys take a great interest i'm f.
the Geographic side because they
are able through 10 TO communicate
with one another and with amateurs
ut a considerable distance from
South Bend. Each licensed anna
tours call number is listed in a di-
reCtory so that the operator who .
picks up his message can at once .
find his name and address. Wireless f.
friendships are sometimes formed .
which lead TO rather interesting re- .
suits, when the hams come to-
gether.
For the older generation, how
ever, the learning Of the code proves .
a barrier; but az long as a man can
hear every thing from a stock re-
