At one stroke the new system opens up the unexplored territory in wavelengths below 100 meters, which involve electrical currents alternat- ing at the stupendous rate of more than s,0o0,0OO cycles second.
 It sweeps away from radio broad cast entertainment all need for out side wires or aerials completely, and with 1t music can be reproduced with the volume of a talking machine in connections whatsoever, irrespective of the amount of steel in the frame work of the building.
 Eliminates Interference
 It removes the present bugbear of radio by completely rejecting all in- terference from wireless telegraph signals caused by sparks, and it also wipes out more than 30 per cent of the interference caused by static.
 An Idea of the remarkable charac- ter of the new apparatus may be gathered from the fact that it ampli- fies speech and music 100000 times greater than does the next most sen sitive apparatus knownr-the regen- orative receiver. with two stages of amplification, which was also the product of Armstrong's genius.
 Used for the reception of continu- ous wave telegraph signals, the new apparatus has even greater ampli- fication possibilities. ranging in the order of 100000 times greater than the regenerative circuit. This means that with it's aid it will be possible for a receiving station in this coun- try to receive from any part of tho world so far as continuous wave telegraphy is concerned
 There is not the slightest doubt about the new apparatus being the most important development in the history of radio communication. It is the third epoch making achieve ment that the young wizard of Co., lumbia University has produced, but 1t far surpasses in importance the two others, which were the regenera- tive receiver and the super-hetero- dyne receiver: although the latter enabled Paul Cooley to receive sig nals more than 5000 miles from 27 American amateurs, each with an
