Recent high-frequency short
wave transmission tests from the
Naval Radio Laboratory at Bellevue,
ID. c., have proven so successful over
long distances that one of these trans
mitters is now being used regularly
each night as part OF the Washington
system.
Within three months it is hoped
that seven or eight of the naval dis
trict communication centers can be
equipped with small high-frequency
receiving sets for practical and train
ing purposes. In the interest of de-
veloping amateurs into prospective
naval reserve radio operators, the
Department OF Commerce has been
asked to prepare data and instruc-
ton on short-wave communication 70.

successful that these stations have
been permitted to "unguard" that Is,

This set at NKF. is operated by a
radio relay from the Navy Yard at
Washington, where a 50-watt, 30
meter set is controlled by wire from
naval radio central in the Navy Build

mitter are controlled by a special
crystal at the desired frequency. The

nized iron pipe about 50 feet long
and 2i2 inches in diameter. located
on the laboratory roof. There are no
masts or wires so familiar in high
power work. Compared to most
naval radio stations the power used
in this work is very low, being be

Problems Encountered.

Technical difficulties, especially in
distortion, We're encountered. but
eventually reports from several places
in the United States indicated that IL
might be possible to cover the coun-
try on short waves. The erection of
kFKX at Hastings. Nebr., with
view to transcontinental relaying was
the Immediate result and two new
J0-KW trsnsmitters were authorized.
The first real test was in November,
1923, when a talk given in Pittsburgh
was transmitted from KDKA on 100
meters, picked up by KFKX, and re-
transmitted on 2S6 meters, on which
wave length it was received satisfac-
torily at Salt Lake City. This was
the first short wave long distance re-
lay. the engineers point out
1t is believed that ultimately this
means of broadcast relaying will be
employed by the Westinghouse Co
to distribute single high-class pro-
gram from a central station. That is,
KFKA will put on program just as
WEAF does, sending it out on non-
interfering short waves instead of
on wires to all it's stations, including
xxx, Hastings; KYW. Chica go;
KDPM, Cleveland; WBz, Springfield,
KGO, San Francisco, and probably
many other broadcasters.
