production Of the second act Of
Wagnerss 'sVa1ISyrie, which ID
known as one OF the most difficult
pieces Of orchestra music. Steidle
had numerous micropho installed
on the stage OF the STATE Opera
and also with every desk Of the
orchestra.
Amplified BY electron tubes,
microphOne oscillations were re-
layed to the head telegraph station,
whenco they were transmitted 10
the regular telephone cables by Q
special switching device.
Listeners-in who wanted to -.
ceive or make regular telephone
calls were disconnected automati-
cally with the opera, and the con-
nection was re-established auto
naatically on demand. The city
telephone service continued undis.
turbed while the performance was
going on.
Doctor Steidle says that by
means Of his invention every tele-
phone client viii be able to listen
| in at any moment. He proposed
to start running general broadcast
ing service over the telephone In
October.
Successful tests with broadcasting
by wire have also been made In,
various other parts Of Germany.
The German ministry OF posts and
telegraphs achieved good results In
broadcasting by wire through es-
tablishing relay senders near high
pressure current cable stations,
without metallic connection. Com
munication by wire with various
points has been achieved. It 10
said that the time Is not far dis
tant when people can listen-in in
every house or home where high
pressure current cable IL ct hand.
This means that broadcasting would
no longer require establishment Of
an antennae, but simply q receiver
