NEW RADIO MARVEL
ENGLISHMAN'S CLAIMS. LONDON, June 7. Major Eckersley, who some time ago visited Australia, has successfully demonstrated an amazing relay system. By piugging a loud speaker into an ordinary laimp socket any number of different programmes can be heard. He says that there is no limit to the number of stations to 'be conveyed through electric light mains without interference. Major Eckersley is seeking Parliamentary sanction of the scheme by which Continental stations can be received on super-gear at ideal reception points and relayed to listeners, who simply press a -button and hear the desired station with perfect quality and V'olume which hitherto was not obtainable, even on the most costly receiving sets. Radio manufacturers who have sunk millions in plant are expected to oppose the scheme, as listeners simply require a loud speaker. Major Eckersley iconsiders that each country should reduce stations to two, using 1000 kilowatts, thus en-a-bling a 20 kilocycle separation- and relieving the present congestion of the ether.
