According to Adam Stein, Jr., man
aging engineer of the radio depart
nent, General Electric Company, "The
ultimate object of tests in the use of
superpower in radio broadcasting is,
If course, an appreciable improvement
n the service to broadcast listeners"
This laboratory" said Mr.. Stein,
is designed to permit a thorough
study Of radio transmission in general
and broadcast transmission in par
ocular. The laboratory provides
quipment for obtaining the transmits,
sion characteristics of wavelengths
between five meters and 5000 meters,
and up to powers of 100 kilowatts
In addition, there has been provided
sufficient antenna structures so that
he best type of antennas or radiators
can be determined for the various
wave-lengths.

Master of Grange
Likes Electricity

Permanent good is sure to come of
the present cooperative investiga.
tlons OF the use of electricity on the
farm, according to L. T. Taber. mas.
ter OF the National Grange. Mr..
Taber in an interview just published,
says:
"A generation ago it would have
been supposed that electrical develop.
ment and the use of electrical energy
was OF little concern to the farmer:
that those in cities and towns were
more yitally interested in this mighty
and mysterious power than those who
till the soil.
THE last decade has seen a trans.
formation along the lines of the use
OF electricity in farm homes. and farm
work. The farm electrical plant has
been most valuable The farmer in
many sections will be vitally con.
cerned in the development of high
tension power lines and proper trans.
mission Of electrical current for rural
uses.
1T is probable that we are yet in
infancy in the use of electricity. This
is obviously true as applied to agricul.
ture Any organization that directs
It's attention toward a better under.
standing Of the relation of electricity
TO rural life will perform an invalu-
able service"

the signal above that of the noise.
This should, to some extent, tend to
decrease the effect of static and
other disturbances.
Second, the use Of high power at
the transmitting station may appre-
clably decrease the extent to which
fading at present interferes with re-

Giant Laboratory of WGY Transmits With Greatest

From the largest and most powerful
transmitting laboratory in the world
WGY, of Schenectady, N. Y, has just
broadcast on superpower, using SO
kilowatts on the antenna for the first
time in this country or abroad.
This laboratory was erected three
miles outside Of Schenectady by the
General Electric Company for the pur-
pose Of making a systematic study OF
transmission phenomena. 1t is equip.
ped for research on waye-lengths from
five meters to 5000 meters with power
from five watts to 100000 watts.

The laboratory occupies 54 acres
OF land' and consists of 10 buildings,
three towers 300 feet high. one tower
$50 feet high- and multitude of
smaller towers ranging from 60 to
100 feet in height. From and between
the towers is arranged a network OF
antennas with which we hope to
secure fundamental data on the most
efficient antenna for a given wave
length and power.
ITO return to the subject of what
superpower can be for broadcast
