MIDGET RECEIVER
WINS POPULARITY
Kew Development, Semi-Portable
Radio, Looks Like 0ld-Fash-
toned Mantel Clock.

Out Of the west comes news Of the
development Of a new type Of radio re-
ceiving set, midget affair, which has
swept into popularity almost overnight
and which gradually may be expected
TO appear in the Eastern and Middle
Western markets.
It is known as the mantel or clock
model receiver Already some 20 Pa
cif1c Coast manufacturers are making
It and May production was estimated
to have reached about $4,000. Looking
somewhat like the old-faShioned mantel
clock, but with modern artistic features
Ill its own. the mantel set Is being
touted as the ideal extra set for the
homes upstairs rooms, guest rooms and
servant quarters.
Small, compact and low-priced, the
mantel set in semi-portable which
combines novelty with utility. Possibly
its ready acceptance in recent months
may be explained by the depression
which hit purchasing power that would
otherwise have been directed to the
more elaborate types of receiver. It Is
confidently expected however that its
tremendous popularity in California,
where it was introduced, augurs SINH
lar reception in the East.
Besides being an acceptable article Of
furniture for the most fastidious home

Of radio listeners, the commissioner
stated. With this information before
them, commission engineers are study
ing the problem of duplicating station
assignments on the same channel and
methods of reducing interference.
There is a constant clamor of small
stations trying to grow up" for change
in wavelength. increased power, and all
around improved assignment, as well as
a steadily increasing effort on the part
of individuals and companies to break
into the broadcasting business with new
stations. Most Of these applications are
for regional stations and the COM
mission almost invariably denies those
for new stations.
ct is very evident that most appli-
cantS are being misled by the commits
sion's present ALLEGATION of regional
stations" says Commissioner Lafount
They base their applications and urge
grants on the basis of those already
made, little realizing the present over
crowded conditions, which is result of
the commissions desire to accommo-
date all existing stations"

RADIO FANS BOTHERED
I'm UNKNOWN STYLE.
Ailment of Congestion Has Over
come Broadcast of Very
Early Dates.

Broadcasting's chronic ailment of
congestion, which evidences itself in In
reference for the listener, affects most
seriously the great middle class" of
stations, or those ats broadcasters using
power from $50 to 1000 watts.
This is revealed by survey just
completed by the Federal Radio Com
mission. Regional stations are crowded
so closely on the limited number of
channels reserved for them that nearly
80 per cent of them suffer from inter-
ference from stations on the same or
adjacent channels, Federal Radio Com
missioner Lafount declared
Questionnaires were sent to this group
of stations to get the facts about inter-
ference and to determine, once and
for all, whether the ever-increasing de-
mand for added radio facilities in this
regional category can be met Because
of the examining of these stations, the
commissioner asserts, the results of the
survey show that the average night
service area Of a 1,000-watt station Is
only about so miles in radius. It
showed also that the service area in
creases and the interference lessons
where stations on the same channel
are 1000 miles or more apart, indicat-
ing clearly that there are too many
stations on the air and that the neces-
odtJ SCOSA dPAAAIdl ocPnA aCAOA S1AAAAOE Nc
allowed under the existing set-up.
THE only way to materially improve
radio reception in the United States,
Commissioner Lafount concludes, lis to
eliminate number of stations and to
apply strictly sound engineering prin-
ciples in making any future assign
ments"
The data supplied by the stations
themselves coincide ito a remarkable
degree" with the reports and observa-
tons of the radio supervisors through
out the country, based upon thousands
of monitoring checks and with reports
