PORT MORESBY RADIO.

(By “Microphone.”)

The opening of a new high-speed wireless telegraph station at Port Moresby last month marks the establishment of direct communication between Sydney and Port’ Moresby, and the completion of another important unit in the wireless network which now covers a large section of the Pacific Ocean. The new station at Moresby is situated in the main street of the town, taking the place of the old station which was located at Konedobu, one and a quarter miles distant. The equipment consists of a five-kilowatt short-wave beam feeder transmitter, a five-kilowatt coastal radio transmitecr, a 50-watt emergency long-wave-short-wavo transmitter, also modern receiving apparatus. An idea of the power of the main transmitter is given by the fact that it is of the same strength as broadcasting stations 2FC, Sydney, and 3LO Melbourne. Three 110 ft. tubular steel masts have been erected to support the special directional beam aerial for communication with Sydney over a distance of 1750 miles.
