That on five continents, amateur radio operators were tuning up their sets to participate in history's first world amateur radio conven tion, an event proposed by South Africans and held last week from the General Electric Co.'s station at Schenectady...
That at Astoria, L. I., two Chinamen-Wei Yoh Wu and Pin Ling Shen-were discovered by the press. They had been studying in the U. S. for several years and were about ready to go back to China to set on foot there a radio industry which might quickly swell to the enormous proportions achieved in occidental countries...
...When the War broke out, we radio engineers, all of us, at once fell to adapting radio to warfare. For my part, I returned to experiments of my boyhood with the short-wave range, seeking to devise means of secret communication. We evolved the 'direction finder' for spotting the enemy's sending stations and giving our own ships their bearings. I worked out a rudimentary (compared to now) system of 'narrow-casting,' using skeleton parabolic mirrors to converge my waves in a beam, thus saving generative power and preventing messages from being diffused 'broadcast...
...inventive energy exerted during the War, and its later overflow into commercial and popular radio when peace came, are well known. It was not, however, until 1924, that we fully appreciated the superiority of short waves over long ones for daylight work. It is with short waves that all my present experiments are concerned; with short waves that I have supplied the British Postoffice with its Canadian 'beam' service and propose linking the entire Empire. Here still, not to divagate upon my work in wireless telephony, my multiple message inventions, my experiments with music and many another related...
...Radiano". Inventors Fred W. Roehm and Frank W. Adsit of Minneapolis announced the perfection of a device to "revolutionize" the piano business, hard hit lately by radio and phonograph competition. The device was the "radiano", attachable to the sounding board of any piano, and with modifications to violins, banjos, mandolins, to replace the microphone of a radio receiving set. Connected through the "radiano" with a radio's amplifier circuit, the piano or stringed instrument's sounding board would act, it was claimed, as a loud speaker, reproducing broadcasted piano tones with a clarity unattained hitherto; reproducing also...
