Radio Stations Jump Wavelengths

Since last July when Congress adj
journed without the passage of any
of the radio bills designed to cope
with the present RADIO situation,
broadcasting confusion and interfer-
ence has become steadily worse. Num-
erous stations in New York and Chi
cage has jumped their wavelengths
and many others have increased their
power, and worse yet, many new sta
tons are opening up.
The stations which have appropri-
ated new wavelengths have in every
case gone up to higher wave in order
to secure larger audience. The shift
ing of wavelengths, the unregulated
increases in power and the croWding
in of the new stations have all COM
bined to increase the interference for
the listener. And the indications are
that conditions will probably continue
to become worse until the first of the
year at least.
WJAZ Verdict the Cause
The immediate cause of the present
confusion was the court decision won
by station WJAZ over Secretary
Hoover. This decision leaves Mr..
Hoover in charge of radio, but without
any authority to assign wavelengths,
power limits, operating hours, etc.
Any broadcaster on the waiting list,
with the proper equipment, may now
demand license, may select any
wavelength which he desires, and may
operate with any power. He doesn't
even have to stick to the wavelength
he chooses, but may go anywhere
within the broadcasting range of
wavelengths. The Department of
Justice still has the power however,
to punish stations which refuse to
stand by for sos calls, and stations
which violate other specific provisions
of the old radio laws of 1912.
The National Association of Broad
casters is attempting to prevent the
increase of radio confusion by extract
ing pledges to stay on their present
wavelengths from all of the stations
in the country as well as from their
own membership. Mr.. Paul B. Klugh,
the executive chairman of the associa-
ton, declares that the principal
trouble does not lie with the present
broadcasters so much as with the six
hundred prospective broadcasters who
The Carbon County news. [volume] (Red Lodge, Mont.) 1924-1931, 1926-10-21
xxx Boulevard

xxx now claims the distinction of
being the first station to have boule-
ward named after it's call letters. In
the new subdivision of Hollywood,
Calf, known as Glendale Highland,
there is now a xxx Boulevard. The
naming of one of the streets after it's
call letters is being considered quite a
tribute to the station.
If this practice is continued, we may
in years time be eating KYW candy
bars and be reading KDKA collar ads
in the street cars.

Standard WaveIength Signals May
Be Discontinued
The United States Bureau of Stan
dards is considering the termination Of
standard frequency transmissions, &C.
cording to tht radio Service Bulle-
tin" of the Department of Commerce,
Since the early part of 1928, the
Bureau has been transmitting twice a
month, raGlo signals of a definite pre-
announced wavelength, to be used by
the public in the standardizing of
wavemeters and the celebrating of
transmitting and receiving SETS The
Bureau of Standards station, WHY,
at Washington, and the Stanford Uni
versity station 6XBM in California
have been broadcasting these signals.
The reason for discontinuing this
service is that other means for obtain
ing standard frequencies have become
increasingly available. The other
means referred to are the use of the
quartz crystal ocillators, and the wide
availability of reliable standards and
the testing service from a number of
laboratories that do commercial test
ing of wavemeters. None of these
means were available when the STAN
dard wavelength transmissions were
inaugurated.
