PROPOSED REGULATION OF WAVE LENGTHS. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT. Received 2.20 p.m. to-day. LONDON. March 30. The International Radiophone Convention at Geneva proposes to rule the world’s air waves, reveals the Evening News, in outlining an approved scheme for redistributing wave lengths. It includes the division of all stations into two classes, namely, exclusive wave lengths for high-power stations, with a guarantee that it will be clear of interference throughout the world, wherefore at least one wave length will be allotted to every country; secondly, 11011-exclusive for low-power or relay stations, which will, receive wave lengths on which it has been proved that several widely separated stations may, by mutual heterodyning, work without interfering with local listeners. The scheme disregards wave lengths under two hundred metres and reserves exclusive wave lengths for countries where broadcasting is still undeveloped. It insists on the adoption of a common method of ensuring that each station wilt rigidly adhere to the allotted wave length, for which it will probably employ Braillard’s quartz pieyoelectric control. It is expected that Britain will lose one or more of her main stations, the exclusives being London and Daventry. —Sydney Sun' Cable.
