CONSTRUCTION STARTS
ON STUDIO BUILDING
Broadcast Station Will Be Built
Atop New Hotel in
MINNEAPOLIS.

MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi. January 27.
Constitution of a building has be-
gun on top of the new Nicollet Hotel
to house the new broadcasting studio
for the Gold Medal station, WCCO.
Washburn Crosby Company, owners
OF the station, announced that this
studio will be completed late in Feb
ruary, simultaneously with the COM
pletion of the new 5,000-watt super
power broadcasting station which is
being constructed Is miles northwest
of st. Paul and Minneapolis.
A one-story building, constructed
on the roof of the Nicollet Hotel be-
tween the penthouses and on its two
wings, will be used to house the stu
dtos, and studios themselves will be
or a design unusual among American
broadcasting stations.
Cost of erecting the Minneapolis
and st. Paul studios will be met by
the Washburn Crosby Company, under
their agreement with the Minneapolis
civic and Commerce Association and
st. Paul Association, by which Min
neapolis business men pledged $4,000
annually for three years and St Paul
firms 100000 annually toward an an
nual operating budget of $1,000

frequency of type which will affect
a reproducer such as a pair of phones.
The detecting means can be vac
uum tube of the standard three cleo
trode type now used; n two electrode
tube, commonly known as a Fleming
valve; an ordinary form of galena and
copper crystal detector and by any of
the other means usually employed for
detection.
While it would seem that the use
of tube for this purpose would be
the ideal arrangement, there are
difficulties in getting a tube to
work efficiently as a detector in this
type of circuit, while the crystal de-
tector circuit gives very good results
at very low cost both as to first cost
and upkeep.

SCHEDULES TO CHANGE.
Davenport, Iowa, Station to Broad

Beginning February / or shortly
thereafter, several radical changes
will be made in the broadcasting
schedules at woo, Davenport, Iowa.
Under the arrangements which are
now being contemplated all forenoon
schedules will be discontinued and
the broadcasting of market. reports
viii also be done away with.
Those in charge of the Davenport
station feel that the complete mar
ket service being offered by Chicago
and other Midwest broadcasters
justifies this change, and woo will
devote it's efforts to broadcasting of
educational material and homemaking
hints and evening programs of an
entertaining and instructive nature.

Adjudication Divided.

Amplification in radio circuits IS di-
vided into two classes. In the first
case ampliflcation of the current flow
ing in a circuit and caused by the
flow OF current in the antenna circuit
by passing wave Is effected at radio
freQuencies, while in the other case
amplification is effected at audio fire.
Quency. Radio frequencies are arbi-
trarily fixed as those which do not
affect a reproducer-that is, they are
vibrations which are not sensible to
the human ear, while audio frequen-
cies are those which are perceptible
to the ear. OF course these vary with
different persons, but radio frequen-
cies include, by agreement, freQuen-
cies above 10000 cycles per second.
while audio frequencies include those
below 10000 cycles per second.
So far we have considered only the
amplifying elements of the circuits,
and in all cases these elements are
three electrode vacuum tubes. Be
sides application, 1t is necessary to
have some means of detection or rec
tification SO as to reduce the incoming
radio frequency vibrations to an audio

What goes on behind the scenes in

What goes on behind the scenes in
a reflex circuit.
The reflex circuit, first brought to
light by Schloemilk and Van Bronx,
Is one of the most unique circuits
now in existence and shares with the
neutrodyne and the superheterodyne
the distinction of being one OF the
triumvirate of what might be termed
the most important and favorite cir
cults of today.
While it was invented as far back
as 1914 by the men mentioned and
perfected later by Marius Latour, the
circuit did not become popular one
until about 1921 and 1922.
The trouble with the circuits OF
earlier days was due to the fact that
special apparatus, especially suited
for such circuits, had not yet been
perfected and though the principles
of the circuits were developed to the
extent that the fundamental actions
were understood and the practicable
ity OF the circuits demonstrated, 1t
was difficult to construct reflex cir
cults that were as efficient as might
be desired.
Special research laboratories were
organized, however, to study the Pc
culiar characteristics of reflex cir
cults, and steps were taken to de-
velop special apparatus to bring out
the best that COulQ De ODlalneu from
the undoubted possibilities of this
new circuit.
Superior Efficiency Given.
The result has been that. tube for
tube, circuits OF this type will give
more efficiency than any other type
of circuit known today.
The proof that such reflex circuits
have inherent in them marked char
acteristics that make for tube efft-
cheney and economy is shown by the
fact that most of the recent new cir
cults, such as the regenofiex, the
reflex neutrodyne, the Roberts cir
cult, the Browning Drake and many
other new circuits, employ this prin-
ciple.
1t would seem difficult to under
stand how a single tube could amplify
more than once, especially since II Is
generally known that radio waves In
terfere with one another to a greater
or lesser extent when they are pres
ent together in the same circuit.
This would be the case IL both fire.
Quencies were separated by only
short distance on the frequency scale.
When the wave length or frequency
of the two or more currents are sepa-
rated by q sufficient span, the inter
ferences between the two waves can
be neglected, and a radio frequency
current and an audio frequency cur
rent can both be present in the same
circuit without causing any trouble
or interference between the two.
