Radio Signals , in Crossing Globe , Are Carried Both East and West

By PAUL F. OODLEX. America’* Foremost Radio Authorin'. I What happens at a receiving station at the opposite side of the globe? Do the messages come from the East or the West? Radio circles have been speculating about this problem of reception at the antipodes of a transmitt.ng station for many years. Now comes H. H. Beverage, an American engineer, from extended research in southern Brazil and tells us what happens. During his experimenting. Beverage found it possible to make observations on many signals from a United States Government station in Hawaii. He could receive them either from the West across the Pacific and the continent of South America, or from the East across the western Pacific, Africa and the Atlantic. The French government sent out an expedition last year to get observations on this subject. An Eng-

f hshman in his travels across the PaI eifle endeavored to carry on similar j experiments. As far as known at i present, the observations of Beverage were made about two weeks before those of Tremellen, the Britisher. Theoretically, when the receiving station is at a point on the earth's j surface exactly opposite the trans- | mitter, the waves coming from both j directions around the earth should j reinforce each other. Having traveled the same distance, they should still be in step, or in phase. Asa matter of fact, due to varying meteorological and daylight conditions existing over the two paths, and due to the variation in absorption which

may take place over the land, even at the antipodes, waves from both ways could scarcely be expected to arrive exactly on time to the tenthousandth part of a second. In Beverage’s observations, signals from Hawaii received from the West were stronger during one part of the day. Those from the East were stronger at another time. Only for short times were they equal in strength. At these times, if both were received simultaneously, an interference took place between them. First their energies would add. A fraction of a second later they would be neutralizing each other. The result was an undecipherable series of signals. Had it been possible to move the station a few miles East this effect would have been absent, and the energies from both ways around would

have fully reinforced each other during certain periods in the day. Another very interesting phenomenon which Beverage relates is that signals received from two stations quite near each other in Germany chose entirely different paths in
