MACAO EXPERIMENTS. The Wonders of Short Waves. Mr. Joaquim da Rocha Saraiva. has had further very interesting experiences with short waves at Macao.
The other day, listening in on 75 to 85 moters, he heard the Japanese station at Iwaki, 2,000 miles away, talking in Morse, on short waves, to an Amòrican amateur, 6 AVH.
The next day, without aerial or earth, and on 20 meters, he listen- ed to these same two atations conversing with shortened waves, BURMA WIRELESS CLUB.
Placed on a Firm Footing.
The Burma Wireless Club, which was formed early in December, 1924, by a group of enterprising Burmans interested in the science of wireless teleg raphy, has now been placed on'a firm footing with headquarters at No. 14, Lancaster-road, Rangoon. Membership is open to all nationalities and already about one hundred members have been admitted. Many applications are pending and it is expected that member- ship will soon increase, reports the Rangoon Times.
The Club has already secured an importing liconee. It has also a four-valve receiving set and has given a satisfactory demonstration of wireloas recep tion from Caloutty and Rangoon on a loud speaker. The question of granting a broadcasting license to the Club is under con sideration by the Government of India.
The Burma Radio Club also applied for a license, and it is understood that the Government of India has asked that the two Clubs be amalgamated for the pur- pose of obtaining a broadcasting license. Negotiations for amal. gamation are in progress and it is presursed the Burma Wireless Club will have an equal number) of Topresentativos on the Com mittee, and that the president will be one nominated or approved of by the Burma Wireless Club
AN EASY TEST FOR AERIAL FAULTS.
Neglect that Results in Bad Reception.
It is rather a pot fad of mine to urgo amateurs to be more par- ticular about their aerials, writes the wireless expert of a London paper. A bad aerial-and by that I moan a neglected aerial-means bad reception.
A very easy method of testing aarials, earths, condensors, and other wireless components is to make use of the phenomenon of roaction in a wireless receiver."
The object of using regenera- tions (or reaction) in a sof is to overcome the resistance of the ciranit. To test various parts it is necessary to have a throo
