Figuring as important factors in
the increased broadcasting power are
more than a score of stations that
have jumped their output from 500
to 1000 watts or to 5000 watts. and
tne Genera! Electric station. WGY.
at Schenectady, and the Radio Cor
poration OF America station at Bound
Brook, y. j., which have stepped
their power to between $4,000 and
80, 900 watts.
Among the most interesting
changes in the broadcasting situa-
ton is the regularity with which
Gulf Coast cities send their voices
into Washington, regardless of
weather and atmospherics, and the
increased strength of signals from
Chicago and several other Middle
Western cities, particularly Omaha
and Des Moines.
On the other hand, a change which
is less pleasing to the more persistent
radio fans OF the East is the mud
ding of the lower wave lengths,
which has made it increasingly diff
cult to tune in distant stations
whose wave lengths are below $50
meters and whose power is less than
! 900 watts.
