40 MISCELLANEOUS

Growth of League

Since the publication of “QST,” there has been a most wonderful growth in the AMERICAN RADIO RELAY LEAGUE. Hundreds of stations were added during the last two months and many stations are waiting to be listed. The membership is now 961. We have already started to list these names in a new call book. If you have any corrections to make or want to get your name on the list, write to the Secretary today.

CORRESPONDENCE

Along with the rapid growth came a flood of correspondence. The Secretary is overwhelmed. No sooner does he make an impression on his pile of letters than another flood comes in. He makes a special request that the members bear in mind their orders and inquiries will be attended to as promptly as possible. If your letter is delayed three or four days, don’t get impatient; realize there are hundreds of others in the same position. Steps are being taken to increase the office force and in a few days everything will be running smoothly. All this costs money and we call your attention to the notice on another page.

CENTRAL RADIO ASSOCIATION OF CONNECTICUT RECENTLY FORMED.

This club was formed in Nov., 1915, and is growing rapidly, having at present fifteen members. The officers are: Harry H. Hicks, President; Philip A. Bailey, Vice-President; Arthur Johnson, secretary and Treasurer; Robert Quirk, Assistant Secretary and Treasurer. The club will install a sounding board so that members who are



not very well acquainted with the code can learn by “listening in.” At every meeting they give readings and lectures with the aid of a stereopticon lantern. One of their members made the club seal which is shown above. We expect big things from this Association in the near future. 

the audion detector in the best amateur wireless stations.

A combination audion detector and amplifier set will assure you of results which are impossible with any other detector. It’s superiority over anything else to be had is easily proven to your own satisfaction, and it’s extreme sensitiveness will delight you. There is great satisfaction in knowing that each time you are through transmitting you will hear the distant station with the same intensity ― by merely moving a switch.

We have a booklet which explains the audion amplifiers which we would like to send you. If you will send us your name and address we will forward a copy to you at once.

We carry in stock at all times a complete line of audion detectors; renewal bulbs, etc., and can usually make shipments the same day your order is received. We manufacture many other good instruments, and full information and literature will be sent anyone upon request.
