Claude A. Mlertz, '14 E, operated at1
the Michigan end; during every other
15 minutes, from 8 to 10 o'clock, he
sent out an OSU OSU 0OSU UM that1
had Detroit calling interference half
the evening, The alternate 15 minutes
® were spent in receiving. Michigan re-
ceived Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo,
Sault Ste. Marie, evieryone it seemed
but 0. S. U. Prof. H-eitmann of the
Buck.,eye electrical department, has no
instrument for -measuring his wave
length and tuing him in was a matter
of pure guess work.
L iacking d regular wireless sending
key, Prof. Parker, of the Michigan elec-
trical department, has rigged up an or-
dinary telegraph sound-er to act as a
relay for making and breaking the
circuit. Its contact "points" are two
nickels. Even with such broad points,
the 2 KWV of power used for sending
burned out those nickels in about five
?minutes of use. While the "points"
were being replaced, the big double
knife switch which controls the power
weas used for sending. A week ago,
,othe message w~hich President Hutch-
-ins wrote to be sent to President
Thomson of 0. S. U. was all sent out
with the ,witch for a key in the vain
hope that the unheard Columbus sta-
tion might get it; at which time the
0. S. U. operator was trying to get
an anmateur in the Ohio capitol to stop
his seniding which was drowning out
all distance messages.
It was hoped that relaying might get
the messages through, but . in last
-week's test, Cleveland heard OSU call-
ing UMI and Ulf calling OSU. The
kindly operator stationed at the Cleve-
~land commaercial station, asked if he'd
relay, swore "'he'd be damned first."
"I am not discouraged," said Prof.
Parker after the last test; "We will
have much higher antennaec as soon as
we can connect our wires to the chim-
ney, when I believe we shall have no
difiIcultin lltalking wihOhostate."
