 Radio listeners who were tuned in cn radio broadcastng station WJAR Monday night at S;30 o'clock were told that they were listening 10 a special test program being conduct ed by that station in conjunction with Francis R. Hoyt, inventor of a new form of radio phonograph re- Cording apparatus, and that through the courtesty of the Providence -Bilt- more hotel Erwin White, director of the Biltmore orchestra, would play two of his own compositions for ex- pcrimental recording, and the radio audience was further advised that it would be told of the outcome of these tests at later date.
 The tests were highly successful and the recording perfectly accom- plished and these records will in turn be rebroadcast from WAR In the very near future.
 The Outlet company arranged to have the first complete test of this remarkable new machine made in Providence and through its radio- phone broadcasting station, WJAR, permitted a Providence audience to he the pioneer listeners and wit Ecsses 10 the experimental tests which finally closed a revolutionary radio development; a development which opened a new page in radio history, one which takes place along side Of radio photography.
 Tho radio equipment which made this recording possible might be re- ferred to as a nlulti-purpose ma chine. It is simplicity in itself and at the will of the operator, through the manipulation of switches, can be made to function as ar ordinary radio receiver, again as an ordinary phonograph, or it can be made into a photograph record producing ma chine for permanently recording radio concerts and programs, and by another operation Of the switches it becomes a home recording ma chine for permanently recording any of the many interesting home pro grams, which everyone would like 10 preserve from time to time. Another arrangement of the apparatus per mits duplication of phonograph rec ords of the standard type or dupli- cation of tho homemade records.
 This new invention should not be confused as q combination Of a radio set and photograph, for. while it plays photograph records, the play ing Of these records is accomplishrd in an entirely different manner from any method known in the past:
 Until the development of. Mr. Hoyt,s device, it has been customary 10 reproduce sound from a phono- graph record by mechanical means, that is, the sound waves on the rec ord have been caused to actuatc mechanical diaphragm, which TO- gnnnlHd ta NRhraHf,rH a
