2YA SESSIONS EXTENDED
From Monday, 11th May, 2YA will go on the air daily (except Saturdays and Sundays) at 10 a.m., thus extending the transmission hours by five daily.
Various talks will be broadcast, and other attractions are being arranged. At present, from 2 to 3 on Tuesdays, tho Education Department broadcasts lecture-lessons for the benefit of the schools.
The American Amateur Radio Belay League, the world's biggest amateur wireless club, added to its laurols on the occasion of the broadcasting of tho speech by the Pope when the Vatiea!n City broadcasting station was opened. The speech was .received on a specially designed two-valve receiver employed as a short-wave superheterodyne cotverter, the output of which was amplified by a standard superheterodyne broadcast receiver, and fedl into the telephone lines linking' all the stations of the great Columbia ■■ chain, which broadcasts' "nation-wide." That !a great organisation like the Columbia system relied on the services of the A.R.E.L. is considered a feather in the cap of amateur radio.
