And there is another thing that the
novice will learn in this radio club. 1t
is this:
The most fascinating thing about
amateur radio is the ability for some
amateur to communicate across several
States with another, or for an amateur

friends who 1--we on the Pacific.
The radio telephone will never take
the place of the radio telegraph as a
method Of amateur communication for
two very good reasons. First, there Is
no fascination in attempting to COM
municate long distances by the radio
telephone. Secondly, to communicate over
a given distance the radio telephone will
require about twice as much power as
the radio telegraph

Men trained in the use Of radio
telegraph equipment are great bulwark
to the Nation in times of National peril.
A large percentage Of radio telephone
fans will find a very natural inclination
toward this means Of communication.
To these. the fact that our Government
has set aside large band Of wave
lengths for the exclusive use Of amateur
telegraphists should DO of considerable
interest.
