Suggestion and Appeal

To the Ealitor of the "Nonmi-Cumea Dauwy News"

Sm—In reply to the request of Quenvrous in to-day's Issue, at least two things can be done, First, Ner radio can be re-calibrated that when: dialled to 1420 kilocycles, the radio will actually receive fon that frequency, As the French Station is crystal controlled at 1400 kllorycles, there should then be interference, provided the radio hax the supethelerodyne circuit, And we would appeal to some good friend of the Christian Broadcasting Station, XMBHD, to present that Station with @ small device called an oscillating transmitting crystal with Holder oF oven, We have checked XMHD many times and at our place the carrier is as much as 200 kilo-eyeies wide and causes interference with all stations on frequencies from 1500 to 1500, with as many as 15 har= monies in " the short-wave bands. This, we think, carries off all honours "for covering a wide area" 60 far frequency is concerned.
