LOCAL FANS PICK UP
PROGRAMS OF 2xAR
New High-Power Station Near
Bound Brook, N. J.. to Replace
New York's WIZ.

Scores of Washington radio fans
have reported hearing the test pro-
grams of 2XAR. the new high-power
station of the Radio Corporation of
America, near Bound Brook, N. j.
The station will replace WIZ In New
York and It's tests were FASTENED at
the request Of the Department OF
Commerce in order to have a report
on its efficiency for the fourth ma
tional radio conference, now in ses-
sion in Washington.
The new station and It's 50-kilowatt
transmitter are practically completed.
All of it's tests have been conducted
after WIZ has signed off between
midnight and 1890 am. WIS wave
of 455 meters has been used in the
tests.
During the tests fans picking up
this station are asked to report to
the Department of Commerce upon
the reception on so kilowatts. noting
interference with any other stations
which may be on the air. This sta
ton, although planned as the first
super station and so announced by
David Sarnof of the Radio Corpora
ton at the third radio conference,
has been, beaten to the air, 80 to
speak. by WGY, which now operates
eXperimentally late Saturday and
Sunday nights. However, WIZ will
be the second super-power station In
the world and. along with WGY,
should reach to all the far corners.
WIS new transmitter uses eight
10-kilowatt tubes on the oscillator
circuit and II similar tubes in its
modulator. The nearest approxima-
ton to its full power, however, is
said to be around so kilowatts. The
tests will reveal the efficiency of the
set and establish It's power rating.
