WINTER

Cleaning Cobwebs
Out of Skies
BY ALEXANDER r. GEORGE
Associated Press Feature Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-uPe
Americas host of radio dial twisters,
from crystal set to superhet listen
ers, are promised one of the mos,
enjoyable winters in the annals of
broadcasting.
The 60.0O0.o00 people in the Unit
ed States, who live more than 100
miles from a b~roadcasting station
and who have been harassed by
h~eterodynes, will derive the greatest
benefit from the new ALLEGATION of
stations, the engineers declare. With
"a of the 80 channels made available
for high grade reception, the farm
and small town listener, as we'll as
the city enthusiast, is assured a va
riety of programs free from whistles
caused by station interference.
Iith wide geographical distribu-
ton Of high power br~oadcasting sta
tions operating on cleared channels.
the set-up provides for first class re-
ception in all sections of the coun-
try. Forty-one station channels are
distributed equally among the five
zones.
The listener on a ranch in Mon
tana, in a small town in Missouri,
Alabama or Connecticut, will be
served primarily by eight high pow
er stations located in his zone and
sending programs on exclusive wave
lengths. Additional service will be
afforded by regional and local sta
tions dividing time or placed geo.
graphically at distances designed to
reduce interference.
While all classes Of listeners will
benefit by the new ALLEGATION. the
farmers will gain the most, said DR..
J. II. Dellinger, chief engineer of
the commission. "They will not
only be able 70 receive more stations
reliably without interference but
practically all points on the dial will
be free from the pest Of h~eterodyne
whistles. The city listeners will
gain through heterodyne free recep-
ton Of their local stations and also
reception Of distant stations free
from interference"
