Radio-Equipped Yacht
Sailing for New Zealand N January 17, after being completely overhauled and refitted,’ the yacht Oimara left Sydney on the first stage of her trip to New Zealand. A portable transmitter has been installed on board, and at 9 a.m. and 8 p.m. each day the progress of the voyage will be broadcast on a wavelength of 42.6 metres, These tests should reveal some very interesting information upon the. performance at sea of short-wave low-powered signals, Short-wave listeners are advised to search for a pure d.c, erystal-controlled earrier possessing a bell-like ring. The signals should be easily distinguished, for the motion of the yacht will cause a reguiar variation, though this may be slight, in their intensity.
