Trans-Atlantic Telephony Trials

“THE recent relaying by the British Broadcasting Company of the Broadcast transmissions of speech ard music from K.D.K.A., the Pittsburgh Station of the Westinghouse Company of America, was a milestone in the history of wireless and reflects the greatest credit on the engineers on both sides of the Atlantic.

HE transmissions from Pittsburgh on a 100 metres wave-length, were part of a research programmearranged by the Associated Westinghouse & Metropolitan - Vickers Companies, The former Company was the originator of commercial broad. casting, and the latter are the manufacturers of the well-known “Cosmos” Radiophones and “Cosmos” Radiobrix for the reception of broadcasting.

OSMOS”Radiophones, “ Radiobrix” and Accessories | are the most efhecient and up-to-date instruments on the | market and are designed under the supervision of Mr. N. P. Hinton, who is the inventor of the well-known Rejector Circuit Arrangements for eliminating interference.

The first word —and the last

Just as Marconi is the first word in the vocabulary of Wireless, so the Marconi- phone is the last word in Broadcasting Receivers If the Marconiphone were not fully worthy of the great inventor himself and of the great firmthat manu- factures it, then you might well ask, “What's in a name?”

In this wonderful Receiving-set are con- centrated all the unmatched experience and mighty resources of the Marconi Company, That is why you may rely implicitly on its technical perfection.

¢, “ae, » 7 Ask your dealer for full p a r t i c u l a r s o f the various Marconiphone models, In case of difficulty apply t o :—
