COMING ISSUES OF “QST”

 Among the other good things in store for subscribers of “QST” are articles on “Tuning,” “Receiving,” “Long Distance Work,” and an article on wireless telephony describing a system which worked well on sixty cycles. This article will tell you how the Secretary of the LEAGUE carried on a number of experiments and succeeded in transmitting music a distance of twenty-five miles with one-eighth kilowatt on sixty cycles. It was practical work and you will be pleased to see the article. A number of well-known writers are going to contribute articles to “QST.”

INTERESTING MEETING OF THE RADIO CLUB OF AMERICA

NEED NOT DISMANTLE RADIO

 Collector Malone was notified yesterday by the Treasury Department that, in accordance with the advice of Secretary of the Navy Daniels, it is unnecessary to dismantle the radio apparatus of bunker coal steamers of belligerent countries which remain in port for so short a time that it is

not necessary for them to enter or clear. In such cases, however, the Collector is instructed to deliver to the master of the vessel a copy of the printed regulations issued by the Navy Department and inform, him that, as the vessel will not have to enter and clear, he will not be required to seal his radio apparatus or to lower his antennae, but that the apparatus must not be used in any way, either for transmitting or receiving, until after the vessel has left the limits of the port.

THE GROWTH OF “QST”

 Along with the rapid development of THE AMERICAN RELAY LEAGUE, came the growth of “QST.” Did you notice the four additional pages in the February number? There are four more pages in this issue. That means, we have eight more pages than when we started; thirty-two pages instead of twenty-four. “QST” will continue to grow, if you do your share. If your trial subscription expires with this number, renew it immediately. If it is going to expire next month, don’t wait until it expires, renew it today and you will get “QST” for a year. It’s very important that you renew your subscription promptly. A delay may mean the loss of a number.
