Novelty for Tuesday Evening
At midnight on Tuesday station 2YA will be on the air relaying from 4YA, Dunedin, a conversation between Admiral Byrd and various important personages in New York. One of these will be the principal proprietor of the "New York Times." Stations 1YA, 3YVA and 4YA will also broadeast the American conversations, and if possible 2YA will do this, but there is a danger of "feed back." Owners of highgrade sets, therefore, would be well advised, if they wish to hear both conversations, to tune in with one or other of the outside stations. Qwners of crystal sets in Well'ngton will hear only the conversation by Admiral Byrd. Tests in connection with this transmission were conducted from midnight Monday, and a full conversation was held on Sunday night (reported elsewhere). The procedure in connection with these broadcasts is for Dunedin to transmit to Wellington by land-line, Wellington’s relay is picked up by Sydney and transmitted by shortwave to New York.
