Of trouble will find consolRtion in
report made b. an engineering corps
which has been carrying on radio ex-
perimental work in the Mojave Des-
ert, always considered a dead spot"
for radio reception.
The report has been received by
the ElectHcal Research Laborato-
ries in Chicago. The experimenters
arc located at Little Rock, Califor
MIA, and are members Of the Los
Angeles County surveyors camp,
The report is signed by seven en-
gineers, and says;
we believe you will be interested
in the radio experimenting aye have
carried on in our camp every night
since Nov. with various sets with
more or less success.
'Ts Dead Country"
I'm tho beginning we must state
that this has always been consid
cred a dead country; no one be-
fore has had any success to speak
of even the best sets 1--WE mean up
to five tuhes) sometimes refusing TO
register signals even from Los An
geles, twenty miles southwest, but
behind high range Of mountains.
You must visualize a high, sandy,
dry plateau, surrounded by noun
'ains on all sides-the 4Iojave desert.
In addition to this. we experience
daily. high electrical winds. We have
seen an intermittent spark gap jump
a three-fourths inch gap between the
antenaa and ground leads continu-
ously for hours at a time.
Tn order TO obtain successful ra.
do reception we have had to bury
the ground twenty feet deep to find
eveh a moist condition. and to raise
the aerial sixty feet high. We are
using an L antenna 1S5 feet long
from point TO set. This has given
best results over all other types"
Reflex Tube Works
The report then gives a list of
high-powered standard three. four
and five-tube Sets which failed to
get any results or succeeded only in
getting very unsatisfactory results,
and then says:
"The only set which has brought
any degree of success is the Erla
three tube reflex. We believe that
the future universal receiver will be
one using the reflex method. We
believe that your judgment, based on
radio research, Will bring a decisive
change in the construction of all re-
ceivers; that tube rehexing is the
most efficient of any method so far,
and that your discovery of synchron-
izatlon which few had suspected,
win be the ultimate goal of the per

TO use the radio in telling what she

livered from station WAR and re-

knowledge concerning the part played
in the war by the woman.
All the members of women's post
served in the navy as yeowomcl dur
ing the war, or as overseas nurses.
The post has made distinct hit with
the citizens of Norfolk because of its
work in the hospitals, Commander
Bucking declared, in her address.
Disabled ex-seryice men, needy vet
Grams, hungry veterans-all find sue
cor at the women's post regardless Of
reasons. When other welfare agen-

total was found one short of the quota
expected of the post by department
headquarters, Because the territory
has been thoroughly combed for mem
bers, post officials believe that they
may have to import a veteran to OBJ
