the reception of WBAL, in Wash
ington, is not due entirely, to its
new wave assignment, according
to a letter received last week by
Radio Commissioner o. H. Cald-
we'll from Frederick r. Huber, di-
rector of the station.
While the reallocation eliminat-
ed pronounced heterodyne on
WBAL's carrier wave, Huber re-
vealed that a new crystal control
and modulator panel have been
installed with a resulting increase
in mOdulation.
"The increased modulation has
certainly been responsible for a
good part of the improved rccep-
ton of WBAL," Huber wrote, but
we feel that the absence of heter-
odyning on our carrier wave also
has been responsible to a great
degree in Improving reception"
Our plea last Sunday for a con-
tinuous program of dinner music
from S to o'clock, stirred up con-
siderable comment in favor of the
plan. One of the strongest sup
porters of the idea is Frederic H.
Powell, 1896 w street. In a letter
to the radio department, he de-

Behind the Microphone
BY THE RADIO EDITOR

/ that the same mail bringing the
commission statement also pre-
duced a report from the National
Electrical Manufacturers ASSocia-
tion containing what purports to
be comprehensive review, from
the listeners point of view, of tile
present broadcasting situation
and the fundamental broadcast
ing problems.
While the committee commend
ed the Radio Commission for hav-
ing reduced the number of sta
tions broadcaSting Simultaneous
ly,"with the effect of leSSening the
prevalence of heterodyne whistles
and cross talk" it declared the
commission failed to accomplish
the prime purpose for which i.
was Overwhelmingly the re-
duction of the actual number OF
stations licensed.
while the effect of license
revocation is obtained, SO far as
reducing interference is concern
ed, by the extensive time sharing
and power reduction put into ef-
feet by the commission under the
new ALLEGATION plan," said the
committee, 'yet, because Of the
economic hardshipS forced upon
station managementS thereby, the
means to accomplish that result
reduces the program standards of
broadcasting and therefore the
desirability of ownership OF radio
receivers.
"A powerful station with large
operating staff compelled to op-
crate half time is in no better
position to expand and improve
the character of its service than
a Skyscraper Office building COM
PEELED by law to keep half of its
Offices empty"
Six other important recon-
mendations bearing on the bread
casting situation are made by the
committee, as follows:
/. Adoption of a standard basis
for rating of broadcaSting stations
for the purpose of deciding the
relative service Of two or more
stations.
2. Adoption of a plan of broad
cast ALLEGATIONS which calls for
SO cleared channels. The COM
missions plan of 40 cleared chan
nels, the committee pointed out, is
a step in the right direction but
it does not go far enough in max
ing possible complete geographi-
cal coverage of the United States
by high grade program service.
3. Complete repeal of the Davis
amendment to the radio act. Divi.
sion of the country into radio
zones as provided in the amend
ment, the committee said, no
matter how skilfully done, is not
fair basis for equalization be-
cause any zoning plan is certain
to discriminate against one zone
or another.
4. Maximum power should be
used on all cleared channels IL
order that the greatest number
of listeners may be served.
5. Wire Syndicated or So-called
"chain" programs should not be
restricted.
6. Publicity should not be given
to mere experiments in station
Synchronization in advance of the
time that the technical and prac-
tical problems of such Synchfon-
ization are solved.

The second Southern group will carry

area has been served spaSmodically on

the Inauguration of a nightly chain
