MARITIME RADIO
WAVES CHANGED
Commission Makes Sweep
ing ReaIlocation of Lengths
Affecting 5000 Stations.

A sweeping realloeation of wave
lengths, affecting the operation OF some
1900 American ship and coastal radio
stations has been ordered into enect
by the Federal Radio Commission al
most coineidentally with the converting
of the annual meeting in Washington
Of the Institute OF Radio Engineers.
Since many OF the teehnicians now
here for the Institute of Radio Engl-
neers' Convention are afaliated with
maritime wireless interests, the COM
missions order Ii attracting eonsidera-
bic attention among the delegates.
The Institute Of Radio Engineers
convention opens today with about 500
radio engineers attending, and will con-
tinue through Wednesday. The opening
session will be devoted to symposium
on technical problems of radio regula-
ton and gives considerable attention
to the hroadcasting situation.
The maritime reallocation Is regarded
as the most far-reachtng action taken
by the Federal Radio Commission since
the brosSicasting reallecation of last
November. just as nearly all broad
casting stations had to change wave
lengths to conform to the reallocation
so all American ship and shore stations
on the ocean and Great Lakes must
shift their high and low frequency call
ing and working channels.
Effective Immediately.
The changes are effective Immediately.
They primarily affect the stations of
the Radio Marine Corporation OF Amer
lea, using SO channels; Mackay Radio
Telegraph Co., using "a: Tropical Radio
Telegraph Co, using %; other COM
panies, using Ia, and ships, using 80.
Ten new frequencies are also assigned
to shore stations owned by American
press interests fer working ships ct sea.
seven new ship-calling frequencies are
designated.
The marine reallocation is the result
of long study by the commissioners engi-
neers specializing on the long and short
waves. 1t is wholly agreeable to the
