The positions which are thus ad.

No exact check on the value Of
the advertising by radio has been

The noticeable increase in volume
Of the Station WEAF, the broad.

occasioned by the installation Of a

RESONANCE IN GOOD HORN
IS AS SLIGHT AS POSSIBLE

The popular conception of the
function of a loud speaker or
photograph is erroneous. We hear
that a horn ''resonates'' or it con-
centrates the sound or it amplifies
and many other explanations, most
Of which are vague or incorrect.
1t is true that horn resonates at
certain frequencies and for that
reason increases the amount of
radiation at those frequencies.
Any form of resonance Is unde-
sirable, because II Is impossible to
increase the amount of radiating
energy uniformly at all frequencies
within range by this method. If
horn is not to distort, It's walls
should be non-vibrating and it's air
column resonances within the range
Of frequencies used should be slight.
A good horn is one which causes
the diaphragm to radiate almost
uniformly at all frequencieO within
the desired limits.
