Rugged to MaSts.
Because the Bowdoin carries sail.
rigging the antenna was somewhat
difficult. The antenna Is rugged to
the two masts with all four wires
leading a slant forward to the fore
mast, the lead-1n wire being taken
off one end of a small spreader swung
about half way between the top OF
the foremast and the tip OF the bow
spirit.
The lead-in insulator presented a
peculiar problem, as difference IN
temperature of 140 degrees between
the forecastle interior and that above
deck Will often be encountered-a
temperature outside of 20 below zero
and inside of 70 degrees above. The
slightest metallic connection between
exterior and interior under such a
great difference in temperature con-
ducts the heat so rapidly that 1t is
almost impossible to prevent Ice COL
lecting on the inner end of the con-
ductor.
Accordingly the insulator itself was
constructed of three concentrlc tubes
surrounding a long slender brass rod
The outer tube is of specially treated
wood, the next of hard rubber. and
the inner tube is of glass. This in

box in the bow of the boat and con-
meets directly with the radio COM
