NOTES A listener at Mount Albert has received a station with the call sign of 3S, Melbourne. The wavelength is 258 metres. The programme was received at fair strength on a five valve set. He would be pleased to hear from any listener the full call of the station and details as to power. To-night a Shakespearean programme will be broadcast from station IT A, when a number of scenes from. well-known works will be put on the air. Many of the artists are appearing before the microphone for the first time. Lovers of Shakespeare should spend an enjoyable evening arid doubtless great numbers of others will gain a better acquaintance with the “Immortal Bard.” The programme has been arranged by Mr. J. F. Montague.
