HoovER's VOICE STRONG AT
5000 MILES

Short wave broadcasters IN the
United States often have their signals
picked up 4 great distances, but sell
dom with so great volume and such
steadiness as in this instance.
An address of Secretary Hoover
was broadcast by WGY and affiliated
stations one Saturday night from
Hartford. Conn. AS is customary on
Saturday nights the WGY engineers
also put the evenings program on
the short wave transmitter, 2AAF
The signals of this station were heard
and permanently recorded in Cape
Town. South Africa, about 5000
miles from Schenectady.
Shortly afterwards the voice of Sec
retary Hoover was on its way back to
the United States wrapped up IN a
form of electromagnetic waves and
neat bundle and carried by train and
ship. The voice had gone out in the
form of electromagnetic waves and
was coming back in the form Of waves
on wax photograph records.
All this was learned on the follow
ing day when W. E. jackson OF
Schenectady, an amateur operator at
station 2AHM, picked up the following
message from Mr.. Oxenham, a
chemist and radio amateur living or
Long Street, Cape Town, South Africa
Greetings, your transmission to-
night very fine business. Speech of
Mr.. Hoover heard perfectly during
your transmission. Records were tax

CROSSING THE POND

The recent transatlantic flights by
Lindbergh and Chamberlain have re-
called early crossings of the big
pond and the time consumed In
making the several epochal trips.
Owing to the varying distances
covered by the different vessels and
airplanes, these must be taken into
consideration in comparing the time
required. Some of the more important
voyages by sea and air are the follow
ing:
1492-Columbu from Palos, Spain,
to the Bahama Islands in 60 days.
162O-Pilgrim Fathers in the May
flower, Plymouth, Eng, to Cape Cod
66 days.
1S19-Savannah, first steamship to
cross the Atlantic, from Savannah,
Ca, to Liverpool, q days.
-Dreadnaught, American clip
per ship, from New York to Ireland,
II days.
Mauretania, from Queens :
town to New York, 4 days, 10 hours,
40 minutes.
1919-Allcock and Brown, in a
British biplane, flew from New
foundland to Ireland, 1860 miles, 16
hours II minutes. This was the first
nonstop flight across the Atlantic
but was from one far outlying island
to another.
Lindbergh is the first to fly from
the mainland of America to the
mainland of Europe without stop
his flight being 5000 miles in 80 hours
20 minutes. He is the only aviator te
cross the Atlantic alone.
Chamberlain flew from New York
to within a few miles Of Berlin, with
Levine as a passenger. Levine is ar
amateur flyer and is said to have act
ed as pilot for short periods during
the flight.
How transportation has been speed
ed up since the days of Columbus!
What new records the next four CEN
turtles shall witness must be left to
the Imagination. Surely nonstop
flight around the world is not many
years in the future.

We do not know yet, however, what
it is going to be like, say ten years
from now, when television sets may

Television Probabilities

We all know what it is to get in
reference on the ordinary broadcast
reception. 1t is often quite humorous
when certain combinations Of pro
grams are being given by the inter
fering stations. For example, your SCI
might give you one station transmit
ting setting-up exercises and stimuli
taneously, another station describing
new cooking recipes. These often re
suit in a ridiculously funny combin
alton coming from the loudspeaker.

difficult around the 20 meter band of

but it does not help very much"
Ans.-The short wave receiver
should be shielded with fairly heavy
sheet of copper, brass or aluminium OF
all six sides. The various pieces of the
shield should be well connected to.

way | can make it stop is to turn the
filament down low, and this causes the
signals to stop also. How can | over
come this?'
Ans.-The ticker coil should be
one or else fewer turns used IN the

coil. Also it may be that the grid
leak is of too high resistance or
that the B voltage is high.
