New Waves Approved.

Officials of the Commerce Depart
ment report that the schedule of new
wave lengths for broadcasting sta
tions has met with a cordial recep-
tion throughout the country. and that
Improvement in reception is noted al.
most everywhere.
All nine radio supervisors report
satisfactory results in the ALLEGATION
of the class B and A wave lengths.
stating that almost all listeners-in
are experiencing better reception than
ever before in summertime. Last
summer, they point out, some 500 sta
tions were operating on 400 and $50
meters, whereas today the B stations
have some nearly forty exclusive ma
tional waves. and the A stations have
thirty-one waves assigned individ-
ually in the nine radio districts.
More than 300 of the old stations
continue in class c, satisfied, appar-
emily. to operate on $50 meters. Ex-
perts of the department express sur
prise at this condition; they hoped
fer early applications for transfers to
class A and B. with Independent wave
lengths. Although no new stations
are being licensed under class c. the
fact that over 800 stations, scattered
all over the country. continue to
transmit on the 360-meter wave tends
to maintain interference which 1t
was expected would be eliminated.

largely eliminated as a result of a
series OF experiments conducted by
physicists at the United States bu-
reau Of standards
The experiments deal with two
main factors directional antennae for
transmitting and receiving. and the
use Of exceedingly short wave
lengths.
with a few exceptions radio COM
munication has been conducted on
wave lengths of not less than 200 me-
ters. and there has been comparative
ly little experimentation on shorter
lengths. The bureau experimenters
are using q wave length Of only ten
meters.
The directional antennae used apply
virtually the same principles involved

sends a narrow beam OF light in
parallel lines for a long distance. so
does the parabolic reflector collect

the radio impulses. At least rs per
cent of the radiated power Is said to
be confined to an angle of 40 de-

The apparatus as constructed is
small, but strong signals have been

measure when broadcastfng became
popular and a restriction of amateur
air traffic was undertaken on a CO.
operative basis The hours of 1880 to

commended to all amateurs by the
leagues board of direction and affili-

Recent recommendations of the
league to the department have been
adopted and among other things pro-
vide for the issuing of special anna
teur licenses for stations using pure
continuous wave. These permit the
owner to operate on wave lengths of
$50 to 220 meters
The use OF any type of transmitter
(Cw, spark, ACCw;, lew, unfiltered
