It will be about 450 feet high and eievetors wifl • be installed to carry- people to the top, rti will be located in Berlin and it will be used in radio research work, The Eiffel Tower in Paris has' been used regularly as a radio mast to sup- port antennae and it has been found, very effective for this work, - One of the large commercial Corn- 'panies which operate a radiobroa,d- casting station in Chicago tried a no- vel stunt. The advertising manager annouaced from their station during the course of one of their regular pra- t grams, that any advertising man who Was listening in might copy the ad- vertisement which they would broad- cast and publish in the next morn- ing's paper which he represented. All the morning newspapers had the ad- vertisement copied exactly and the test proved that the various advertis- ing agencies in Chicago were equipp- ed to accept for advertising by radio, Station WGY at Schenectady ap- pears to get through to Europe about the best of any of the broadcasters on this side of the Atlantic. They have • received over 6o letters from Europe- an fans, acknowledging receipts of programs. Station CKAC of La Presse, Montreal is also getting across the Atlantic very regularly. One English fan in writing CKAC stated that he enjoyed one of their midnight concerts while he was eat- ing his breakfast the next morning, the differenc7, in time being six hours. Many fans report hearing programs sent out by the Radio Corporation station Notated at Porto Rico. Un -for- tunately all the announcing at this station is done in Spanish and 'it is rather difficult ,to tell just what sta- • tion on& has. The station of the Ca- nadian National Railways at Winnipeg has been considerably etrengthenad and it comes in with good volume, in fact it is about as good as the average American station, Many lens report 111051.10,13M1.11•1•11ZIPLIa...
