UNIDIRECTIONAL RADIO
BEACONS PROPOSED
Engineers Study Effect of One
Direction Transmission
on Planes.

Radio engineers at the Bureau OF
Standards, who have been specializing
for some time in the Improvement OF
wireless apparatus for guiding aircraft,
are studying the possibilities OF unldl-
rectional radio beacons.
During the development by the bu-
reau of a directive beacon, it appeared
that the usefulness Of the beacon could
be increased by making the radiated
field unioirectional. AS the operation
of several beacons is planned, all on
the same frequency of ago kilocycles
u,O34 meters) a large amount OF in
reference between the various beaconS
might be prevented by one direction
transmission the engineers believe.
other advantages expected are an
increase in signal intensity in de-
sired direction with given amount
of power, and the fact that the pilot
would be less subject to confusion from
a variety of possible courses.
The method of obtaining one direc-
ton beacon signals consist In the
combined use of vertical antenna with
two crossed coil antennaS The unidi-
rectional signals are said to increase the
efficiency of the beacon from the power
standpoint, reduce interference from
other beacons and reduce the number
of radiated courses to one. 1t is be-
lieved that the polar characteristics OF
the radiated field is about the optimum
for aircraft use.
The method utilizes directive and
rlon-directive fields simultaneously,
with the proper phase and amplitude
relations between them to secure uni
directional transmission.

ENGINEERS ADMIT
RADIO BAD SPOTS
Many Listeners Complain
That They Do Not Hear
Favorite Stations.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
With broadcasting stations operating
more accurately on their assigned wave
lengths there has been steady i'm
provement in reception in most parts
of the country, engineers of the Fed
eral Radio Commission declare. They
admit, however, that there are still sew
eral bad spots
Blanketing caused by broad tuning
of transmitters and heterodyne inter-
ference caused by stations failing to
keep on their frequencies have been
largely responsible for poor reception.
Several stations which have been par
ticularly fragrant offenders have been
warned by the commission to adjust
their apparatus properly under penalty
Of losing their licenses.
Meanwhile the commission has been
patching up some of the weak spots by
allowing stations experimental use Of a
different frequency in an effort to elm
mate interference.
A large percentage of the protests
received from listeners are complaints
that they do not hear the programs OF
tavorite stations as we'll as they did
under the old set-up or regarding reduc-
ton in the hours of operation of the
stations. Much of the dissatisfaction
rivalry between competitive stations in
various communities which are con-
testing for q preferred channel or time
allotment.
Members Of the commission say that
stations will be shifted from time to
time in the interest of better reception
and where broadcaSters have demon
strated the validity of their claims to
better channels, but that the general
steup will be maintained.
Some broadcasters who protested
their assignments when they first went
on the new frequencies have since noti-
ned the commission that they like the
new wave lengths. The owner of a
station in Central California wired
Commissioner H. A. Lafount the day
after the new set-up went into effect
that his assignment was impossible"
and requested another wave few
days later he sent another wire saying
he was getting along fine" and ask
ing that his request be Cancelled.

and includes a varied assortment of
entertainment and educational features.
The new station divides time on a
clear channel under the reallocation
and will have 5000 watts power.
Birminghaii1's allotment in the con-
struction of the station includes an
elaborately equipped studio in a down.
town office building. The transmitter

commission at Montgomery has granted
authority for the expenditure of $500
to $4,000 for Quitting studio In that
city, while Auburn plans to improve its
old studio, which was the former home
of WApI.
WAPI is Birmingham's second broad
casting station, WBRC having broad
cast here for a number of years.
Sensing the need of stronger sta
ton, citizens of Alabama began move
ment to replace the old station at Au-
burn, gift of Victor H. Hanson, pub
Usher of the Birmingham News, with
one more modern WAPI formerly had
been used by the Alabama Polytechnic
