Wireless at Panama.

The proposed wireless station at Panama to be erected by the United States government will be known as the Darien Radio station. In Its general equipment.it will duplicate the station at Arlington except that all three towers will be 600 Yeet high, whereas at Arlington only one of the trio reaches that height, the other two being 150 feet shorter. The low-

and receiving radius will be about 3,000 miles direct reach, to the Arlington station, to San Francisco, and to Valdivia,—l2o miles south of Valparaiso, on the Pacific, and Buenos Aires on the Atlantic. It would cover a vessel anywhere on the east coast of the United States, and communicate with St. Vincent, 500 miles tyest of the coast of Africa.
