DX Notes
IYA on a Crystal at Blenheim, (CAN anyone tell me if 1YA was lecturing on "Gramophones and Records" on Wednesday evening, between 7.30 and 8 I was experimenting with a crystal set I had made. I made it up on Monday, and tried it out to see how it went. I received 2¥A fair, with the condenser half out. With the dial at 90 I could hear a station with band playing. I was surprised to hear 1YA, Auckland, announced. I put onthe amplifier, and brought it in at fair speaker strength. At about a quarter to 8 on Wednesday, June 12 I put the set on to see if I could get any results. I logged him all right, but I think I must have had someone else at the same time, as I heard 1YA’s announcer giving the shipping news, and right on top of him came another man lecturing on gramophones ‘and records. Were both men ‘speaking from 1YA?"Puzzled" (Blenheim). Is there a nearby valve set liable to radiate?
