greatest amount of general interest. All
questions SHOULD be accompanied slaInna 6y q
dressed to Graham McNamee in care Of this
newspaper. Please make your questions
briefD .
Q. About how many programs do the
leading stations put out per week and
what proportion is advertising pro-
grams?-Charles L. Wilton, Newark,
A. wEAF puts out '2so programs
week and WIZ 255. OF the former,
90 are sponsored programs. WIZ has
about the same proportion.
@. Will you kindly tell me the names
of the men who pioneered the wilder
ness of the air."-Mrs. r. H. Scott,
Vinita. Va.
A. presume you mean broadcasters
and not technical men. They were
Milton Cross, Andrew White and my
self One of the very earliest paid
artists was May Breen, of Breen and
De Rose, singers and composers. Miss
Breen has since gained fame as the
"ukelele queen" having been the first
person effectively to score popular songs
for the uke.
@. 1 am informed that the theaters
and the radio are joining their inter-
ests, and that some of the theaters have
broadcaSting stations. Is this true?-
l.. C. Parmenter, Haverhill, Mass.
A. While one leading moving pic
ture concern has recently made radio
alliance, it is not generally true that
radio and the theater are coming to-
gether. In the large cities, however,
there is natural alliance between radio
and the theaters which brings them
together in many ways. Theatrical
talent shades off into radioland, and
that is one reason why large broad
casting stations are coming more and
more to be located in theater districts.
In New York City the stations, WEAF,
WIZ, WABC, WOR, WIN, WPAP,
WNCA, and WPCH all are located in
the midtown theater zone. Several
theaters have special radio studios.
@. Did the big sun-spot last August
affect radio ting?-Everett c.
Smith, Hanover, N. H.
A. 1t happened that I was curious
about that myself. and made some in
quires. DR.. Nicholson of Mount Wilson
Observatory, made the following state
ment: Magnetic storms do not affect
weather conditions, so far as we know
at the present state of scientific in
quiry, but they have noticeable con-
nection with Geographic communication
and radio reception. It has been be-
lieved that they might increase radio
static. But no foundation for this be-
lief has been found" While scientists

new TYPE SPEAKER
TO BE GIVEN TRIAL
Latest Invention, Made on Prin
ciple of Condenser, Is
Electrostatic.
Nv the Associated :

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO.-A type Of speaker not
heretofore used in a receiver designed
for home use is being given its first
chance this year.
A product of two years laboratory
effort by Colin Kyle, its inventor, and
his associates, this instrument, made on
the principle of a condenser, is an cleo
trostatic speaker. The set into which
it is built also contains tuning circuit
giving uniform application across the
entire broadcast band
The speaker consists of six fiat Sec
tons, the supporting frame Of which is
one plate of the condenser. On top of
the frame is special dielectric known
as Kylite. The other plate is aluminium
leaf which vibrates in step with the
audio current flowing through the
speaker and thus reproduces sound.
Two sections of the speaker are
mounted just back Of the front opening
in the console, while the others are
placed at an angle on either side Of the
center sections.
Five kinds of tubes make the receiver
perform. The principal ones are three
screen grids in the RI section. The
detector and first audio are 227's, and
there are two PASS in the output push
pull stage. The power supply is from
$50, and a 1919 provides the current
required to keep the condenser plates
charged.
Removable shields are provided for
the RI tubes and the detector. Each
of the four coils mounted just below the
four-gang condenser is individually
shielded.
The tuning coils are constructed so
that amplif1cation at the top of the
broadcast channel is the same as that
in the center and at the low side. Spe-
cially would primaries produce this re-
suit, the primaries being in two sections,
one to boost the longer waves and the
other the lower bands. The dial is
marked in kilocycles only.
The audio system is combination of
resistance and transformer coupling,
with a power detector.
