BUYERS ASK TESTS
OF RECEIVING SETS
BY RADIO EXPERTS
Appeals Made to Bureau
Of Standards for Trade
Protection.

Ever-increasing public interest IN
radio has added to the troubles OF
department store buyers and others
handling such equipment. Because
OF the rather technical problems in
volved. actual and prospective SELL
ers of ether wave" receiving de-
vices say they are up against IL In
their efforts to satisfy the trade.
Finding no information available
to use in selecting good or reject
ing bad apparatus, and fearing the
loss of established good will. ap-
peals have been directed 70 the Bu-
reau of Standards of the Depart
ment of Commerce to devise stand
ard testing methods.
Performance test methods for
immediate use by commercial
testing laboratory were recently
agreed upon in an outline by rep
resentatives of the Bureau of
Standards, the electrical testing
laboratories of New York, and the
National Retail Dry Goods Associ-
alton. Suggestions regarding i'm
provements on these methods, or
new methods for testing the equip
ment submitted by the National Re-
tail Dry Goods Association, will be
subject to approval Of the Bureau
of Standards.
The tests outlined include exam
ination as to the materials and
workmanship ,of construction, the
mechanical and electrical design,
simplicity of adjustment. rugged
ness, sensitivity. sharpness of tun-
ing. wave length range, and faith
fulness of reproduction in radio
telephone reception.
