It is your col- lutrtn for your use. If you wish any matter cleared up, write care of this paper. If a personal reply is desired. include a stamped, addressed envelope. We welcome your I enquiries. Conducted by EDMUND DALY This is the initial appearance of our Radio Column. We hope we -can make, it of value to you -use it -for clearing up your radio difficu'1- -ties. We feel that a local review of -radio reception and stations receiv- .,ed locally will. be more valuable than some national review, • regardless of fnow accurate it may be. Interference During the last few weeks there h as been a gradual increase in inter- ference caused •by more than one sta- •tiron on each dial setting. It might .'be a surprising thing for us to say, 'hut the trouble is that radio recer• lion is too good at the present time: Let us explain by giving you a few q uick facts: Your Glial is marked -from 1500 to 550 kilocycles -a range mf 950 kilocycles. One station re- quires a hand 10 kilocycles wide. 'Therefore there is room on your dial Tor 95 stations. That's all simple arithmetic, isn't it? Now here's the trouble, Your radio is exposed to signals from -about 2,000 -.stations -and still here's only room for 95. Certain channels ." as these divisions are called, ..are given exclusively to the .'highest quality stations. These are comparatively free from interference. The second grade stations are bunch - .ed, in on the rest of the "channels." SOrdinarily these low-power stations are only received a. few hundred miles -from the source of origin. Therefore 5f we are 100 miles from one of these etations we get it without interfer- ence from a station on •the same fre- quency situated 1,0001 miles away. Now here's what I mean when T say reception is too good: These low - powered stations are being received. -'five to ten tines the 'distance, they are normally heard, That is. along. with the station' we usually . hear on a certain setting of the dial, we are' also getting anywhere from one to a dozen extra stations, The rosullt "bedlam, and lots of it! These low - '.powered stations are mostly at the 'higher frequencies -that. is why thc: stations from 000 to 1500 a -e the hardest ones to receive clearly. Questions and Answers Question. -Why can the Govern- ment tax me for using the air to re- ceive a radio station -the air's free, isn't it? Answer, -In the above talk on in- terference 1 mentioned the fact that stations interfere with each other. To my mind one of the most import- ant services that the government renders is a constant study of the hest placing of stations on your dial. It's some job to try and satisfy all listeners. Listeners in Seaforth and vicinity alight be satisfied to have a certain station corning in at a certain dial setting. But this might be high- ly unsatisfactory to a larger number f (people a hundred miles away; therefore, it must be changed. Natur- ally this constant supervision re- quires financial aid. Furthermore, it costs money to keep up this .sup- ervision in harmony with Anerican stations, so that Canadian and Amer- ican stations do not interfere with each other. IInc1s entally I believe that there would be a great deal less 611 -feeling if the Canadian Radio 'O 1m'lihission did give a-"ll•e more • ublicity to the work it is doing and to what it is giving you for your license fee. Question. --'Why can't I get Kit- chener on my radio any more? !Answer. -In the first place, on Monday, Nov. 13, 'CKICR changed its frequency from 1650 kilocycles to 1510 kilocycles -that is slightly higher than the highest number (1500) on the average radio. Maybe your set won't tune high enough..Incidentally 'the volume of this station has de- creased to about a tenth of its form- er power.. I tried to get it on all 11 - tube set and, with full volume, I could just hear it. It might be pos- sible that they are temporarily using lees power till they have the equip- ment accurately, adjusted t(o 'their •nerw frequency. Question. -(Why does WIN drown ,out °FRB at night, while CFRB is "loudest in the daytime? ' Answer.-CFRB uses 10,000 watts of p'o'wer all the time. I•n the day- time WLW uses 5,000 watts -half the power that CFRB uses, At night FREE ACCOUNTANCY BOOKKEEPING COURSES Complete home study course.
