ewsDECEMBER, 1936

Hear 1936 Xmas and 1937 New Year('elebration,s In All Parts of

The WorldLAST Christmas and New Year,

owners of Scott Allwave Re-ceivers listened direct to Christmascelebrations in all parts of theworld. During the past year prac-tically all (jf the large nations haveincreased the power of their trans-mitters so that the programs fromEngland, 'Germany, France, Italy,Australia and many other countriesare tuned in direct in U. S. A. andcan be received most of the timewith as much volume, and as clearlyas many of the programs that comefrom a local station.

Some idea of these intensely in-teresting Christmas celebrationscan be obtained from a descriptionof the Christmas broadcast trans-mitted last year by the BritishBroadcasting Corporation's shortwave stations when voices wereheard of speakers in England, Scot-land, Ireland, Canada, India, SouthAfrica, Australia and New Zealand.

The report which follows waspublished in the January issue ofthe "News," but is reprinted togive our readers an idea of whatwas heard on the Christmas dayprogram from England.

The first celebrations tuned in onChristmas morning were those fromEngland, whose colonies and possessionsare scattered all over the globe. ThisChristmas, through the miracle of shortwave radio, the British nation had agreat family XMAS party in which mil-lions in all parts of the Empire joined.

The complete program' to be describedwas heard dil ect from short wave sta-tion GSE, London, England. Short wavetransmitters located. at Cairo, Egypt;Ottawa, Canada; Capetown, South Af-rica; Bombay, India'; Melbourne, Aus-tralia; and Wellington, New Zealand,transmitted the voices of the variousspeakers taking part in the' broadcast,which were received in London, thenbroadcast from GSE, the English station.

The Celebration Starts 'The celebration started at 2:30 P.M.

in England, but as English time is sixhours ahead of C.S.T., it was exactly8:30 A.M. in Chicago when I tuned inGSE. In Canada it was early Christmasmorning; in South Africa it was lateafternoon; in India it was evening; inAustralia it was just after Midnightwhile in New Zealand it was 3: 00 A.M:

on the day following Christmas. Theprogram started off with Big Ben in Lon-don striking, then after a brief announce-ment we were taken to a modest home inSheffield, England, where a microphonehad been placed.

First the voice of a typical English-woman came over the air wishing herhusband, who was at a work in a largeelectric power station, a Merry Christ-mas. This was followed by the children'sgreetings to their father. There was abrief pause, then the father's voice wasnext heard wishing his family at home aMerry Christmas. He then sent a specialgreeting to a friend in Canada, afterwhich he tolci his family he would soonbe finished work, and would be home ina short time for tea.·

Xmas Greetings from CanadaTn Canada, the friend to whom greet-

ings had just been sent was listening in,so a switch was thrown, then over theair 'came the voice of the Canadianthanking his English friend for hisChristmas greetings, and on behalf ofCanada wished everybody listening in aMerry Christmas and a Happy and Pros-perous New Year. The Canadian thenintroduced his wife and three children,all of whom spoke into the microphone,the children sending a special Christmasgreeting to some particular friend oftheirs.

Xmas Greetings from ScotlandN ow once again came the voice of the

English announcer telling us our nextvisit would be to the horne of a farmer in ,the North of Scotland. A few secondS'~'later, th'e delightful rich burr of theScotch tongue was heard and the Scotch-man and his wife described how they had

Page 2: ews - On The Shortwaves...ews DECEMBER, 1936 Hear 1936 Xmas and 1937 New Year ('elebration,s In All Parts of The World LAST Christmas and New Year, owners of Scott Allwave Re-ceivers

spent the Christmas morning. At thesame time they took the opportunity tosend Christmas greetings to their son anddaughter-in-law who now live in SouthAfrica.

Next Come Greetings fromSouth Africa

The voices of the Scotchman and hiswife had no sooner died away, than theEnglish announcer switched his listenersover to South Africa where, from a mi-crophone, there came the voice of a sonwishing his mother and father in Scot-land a Merry Christmas. He describedhow his wife, himself, and some friendswere having afternoon tea in their gar-den, and introduced those gathered'round the tea table so that they mightalso extend to the world their Christmasgreetings. The South African's greetingsconcluded, back we switched to Londonwhere we were informed our next visitwas to 'be to a beach in the North ofIreland, where an Irishman and hisfriend, a fisherman, stood chatting witheach other. The fisherman described theluck he had had fishing that morning,then the XMAS greetings from Irelandwere broadcast to the other parts of theBritish Empire.

Xmas Described in Village in IndiaOnce again Aladdin rubbed his lamp

(?r rather threw a switch) and instantly,VIa short wave radio, we were trans-ported to a village in the interior of Indiawhere an Englishman holding an officialpost, described how Christmas was beingcelebrated in the small Indian villagewhere he lived. He informed his audi-ence that although it was afternoon inEngland, it was 8:00 P.M. in the eveningin India.Xmas in Children's Ward in Wales

Hospital BroadcastThe greeting from India concluded,

back to London again we went where wewere transported to a children's hospitalward in N orth Wales where a Christmasparty for the children in the ward was inprogress. The matron in the ward intro-duced a number of her little patients whodescribed their Christmas presents, thenfinished up their part in the program bywishing everybody--in Welsh-a MerrvChristmas, and sent greetings from th-epeople of Wales, England, to the peoplein New South Wales, Australia.

Australian Sends His XmasGreetings

Of course, the greeting from the peopleof Wales, England, had to be acknowl-edged by the people of New SouthWales, Australia, so a few minutes later,the scene moved to a spot over 10,000miles away, to New South Wales, wherea family was gathered around a micro-

phone. After they had acknowledged thegreetings from Wales, England, the Aus-tralian told his listeners how he and hisfamily had been to church in the morn-ing, and the fun they had had surf bath-ing in the open sea that afternoon.

The Australian greetings concluded,once again we were returned to London,where the English announcer informedhis listeners there were just two places tohear from, the nearest-London, Eng-land, and the farthest-New Zealand. ALondon taxi driver had been selected todescribe Christmas day in London, anda very good job he made of it. Then atypical English school boy and girl, onenine and the other eleven years of age,who gave their names as Richard andAnn, in clear cultivated English voices,sent Christmas greetings to their grand-father in far away New Zealand.

The greetings of the English childrenfinished, the voice of the grandfather,who had been listening to his grandchil-dren at Wellington, New Zealand, 12,000miles away, was next heard. He ex-pressed the pleasure it gave him to returnthe children's greetings. It must havebeen a thrill indeed for both the childrenand the grandfather to have exchangedtheir "Merry Christmas" in such a dra-matic way.

Small New Zealand Girl BroadcastsXmas Greeting to King

And now came one of the most' thrill-ing parts of this Christmas broadcast,when a little New Zealand girl sent hergreetings to her King, and from Englandthe voice of King George replying to herand to all those who had sent in theirgood wishes and Christmas greetings tohim from all parts of the British Empire.The King's greetings and his Christmasmessage to his people concluded, thisgreat family party in which millions hadjoined, ended with the singing of "GodSave the King" by groups gatheredaround a microphone in England, Wales,and Scotland. So ended one of the mostinteresting Christmas broadcasts everput on the air.

AN INTERESTINGBROCHURE

BEFORE buying any article of consider-able value, or one that is expected to

give several years of service, you like tomake certain that it measures up to whatis claimed for it. When a manufacturer de-scribes the performance or merit of hisproduct he is naturally inclined to be en-thusiastic, but if you can secure the opin-ion of those who have actually bought andused it for some time, you have muchmore unbiased information on which tomake your decision.

We have just prepared a brochure whichwe know you will agree is quite unusual inmany ways. In it you will find, not whatthe builder claims for an instrument that istoday generally regarded as the World'sFinest Radio, but what those who havepurchased it say of its quality and per-formance. You will find performance re-ports from Scott owners in every part ofthe country. You will read the opinion ofdistinguished musicians on the tone of theScott.

Probably you have often heard reportsof the remarkable reception obtained withthe Custom Built Scott, and may wonderwhether such results can actually be se-cured in your home. In the pages of thisnew brochure, "EVIDENCE," you willfind that the Scott is giving its owners notonly clearer and more enjoyable receptiondirect from the broadcasting stations of theworld, but is bringing in these programswith such perfection of tonal fidelity, thatit is the choice of the most noted figures inthe musical world.

This brochure is expected to be off thepress within a few days, and I will be very -glad to send you a copy of it on request.The coupon below is for your convenience.

E. H. Scott Radio Laboratories,4450 Ravenswood Avenue,Chicago, IllinoisGentlemen:

Please send me a copy of your new book"Evidence," when it is ready.

CHRISTMAS PROGRAMS FROM GERMANYAN ADVANCED copy of the programs of

the Christmas and New Year broadcaststhat will be made from the German short

wave stations has just been received, and aglance over it shows they will undoubtedly bemost interesting.

The German short wave transmitters areamong the most powerful in the world today,and for over a year they have been broadcast-ing daily a program especially for listeners inU. S. A. These transmissions are sent out onspecial directional antennae, and our reportsfrom Scott owners show that they are beingheard in practically all parts of the country onthe Scott with good volume, tone and clearness.

Director of German BroadcastingSystem Visits the Scott

LaboratoriesThe German programs will take on an added

interest to us at the Scott Laboratory this yearowing to the fact that when Dr. Kurt vonBoeckman, Director of the German Broadcast-ing System, came to this country recently, hevisited our Laboratories, spending several hourshere, and in a later interview with the press,

Germany Broadcasts in EnglishEach Day

The announcement of the musical selections,etc., are always made in very good English aswell in German. From 8:15 to 8:30 P. M.,E. S. T., Germany gives her views on worldproblems in perfect English. However, a largepart of the German programs are musical, andsome of the very finest artists in Germany per-form before the microphone. There is, ofcourse, no advertising of any kind on theseprograms, as the. artists are paid by theGovernment.

The German short wave stations are easilyidentified. About ten minutes before beginningeach transmission they put a signal on the airconsisting of five or six notes played on chimes,the melody of which is taken from the oldchurch tune, "Always Be True and Holy." Thebroadcasts always open with a German folksong, and close with the playing of the twoGerman national anthems.

You Are Invited To Visit Our IILiving Roomll

Studios In Chicagol New York And Los AngelesSCOTT CUSTOM BUILT HIGH FI-

DELITY ALLWAVE RECEIVERSare not sold in retail radio stores, but onlydirect to the ultimate user .from our Labo-ratory in Chicago, or from our Studios inRockefeller Center, New York City, or ourLos Angeles Studio at 115 North Robert-son Boulevard, Los Angeles.

It is impossible to judge the quality ofreproduction in a receiver by listening toit on the floor of an ordinary radio store,for the acoustics of a store are quite differ-ent to the acoustics of the living room.

For this reason, you will find four "liv-ing rooms" at our Laboratory here in Chi-cago, three "living rooms" at the Studio inRockefeller Center, and four "livingrooms" at our Studio in Los Angeles, allfurnished in much the same way as the liv-ing room in your own home, with rugs, set-tees, chairs, etc. Some of these rooms arequite modest in size, others are large, sothat it is possible for you to listen to aScott receiver in these studios, under muchthe same conditions you will listen to it inyour home, and iri this way form a very

accurate idea of how it will sound inYOUR living room.

Whether you are interested in the pur-chase of a radio receiver at the presentmoment or not, you are cordially invited tovisit our "living room"'studios, for we knowyou will then realize the tremendous differ-ence there is between the quality of repro-duction of a custom built Scott and anordinary radio receiver, and see why it istoday the choice of the most distinguishedpersonalities not only in U. S. A., but in 148different foreign countries.

The Finest Creations Of The World OnLand -- On Sea -- And In The Air

On land, on sea, and in the air, thescientists and engineers of the worldhave reached new heights of achieve-ment. When the Queen Mary, proudestship that now sails the seas, carriedher 2000 passengers across the 3000miles of the Atlantic Ocean in 96 hours,she created a new World's Record forocean travel, a record made possible bythe tremendous power of her 200,000h.p. electro-turbine engines.

On land, the Hiawatha, speed linerof the Milwaukee, streaks overthe rails at a cruising speed of 100miles per hour, carrying her pas-sengers in comfortable air condi-tioned cars on silent roller bear-ings, and rubber cushionedwheels. Behind the gleaming or-ange, maroon, and silver front ofthe Hiawatha, is the new streamlined oil burning 3000 h.p. loco-motive, of a design so advancedthat it had the power to win forthis wonder train the speed cham-pionship of the railroad world.

When the China C 1i P perzoomed into the sky, and flewstraight as an arrow over theocean to far away Honolulu, itcreated a new World's Record fortransportation by air. Advanceddesign and the power developedby its 2800 h.p. engines, enabled

it to carry, without a stop, its 42 pas-sengers over the 2100 miles in 14 hours,the longest non-stop flight ever at-tempted by a commercial plane.

Without its powerful engines, theQueen Mary would be little differentfrom anyone of the thousands of ordi-nary ships that now sail the seas; theHiawatha no better than an ,ordinarypassenger train; and the China Clipper,no better than an ordinary plane thatmakes sight seeing trips over airports.

SCOTT RECEIVERS are designed, built and tested inthis modern Laboratory. On the top floor, left side, islocated Research and Experimental Laboratory--onright side Construction and Test Departments-the sec-ond floor houses the General Offices and Demonstra·

tion Studios-on the first floor is located theForeign Department.

The heart of each of these outstand-ing creations, and the secret of theirrecord breaking performance, lies intheir powerful super efficient engines,for without these, they could not haveestablished new World's Records.

Radio's Greatest Foreign StationReception Record Established

by Scott AllwaveIn 1931-32, a Scott Allwave Re-

ceiver established a World's LongDistance Reception Record byreceiving, for 12 consecutivemonths, with loud speaker vol-ume, every single program trans-mitted from a broadcasting sta-tion 9500 miles away. This recordfor the consistent, week afterweek, month after month, recep-tion of every program trans-mitted from a distant foreignstation has never even been ap-proached by any other radio re-ceiver, and today is recognizedthe world over, as the greatestVerified DX Reception Recordever established. This receptionhas been fully verified, and a com-plete report is given in our book-let "Proof," which will be sent onrequest.

Just as there are many ships

Outstanding Features Which Makes Scott RadioReceivers The Finest In The World

every frequency or tone from 30 to16,000 cycles (more than twice therange of the ordinary High Fidelityreceiver) is the SCOTT FULL RANGEHIGH FIDELITY ALLWAVE RE-CEIVER. This new achievement in to-nal reproduction has only been madepossible by the new and exclusive Fidel-ity Control, combined with the specialScott Audio Amplifier, and the newScott Triple Speaker System, especiallydesigned for this new receiver.

Some idea of the out-standing tonal perfection ofScott Receivers wilLbe re-alized when such worldfamous artists as ArturoToscanini, Conductor of theNew York PhilharmonicOrchestra, and Tullio Serra-fin, Conductor of the RoyalOpera in Rome, have pur-chased Scott Receivers fortheir own personal use.

More Than Six TimesPower Output of Or-

dinary RadioOne of the many out-

standing features of the newSCOTT FULL RANGEHIGH FIDELITY ALL-WAVE is the 30 watts ofundistorted Class A output,which enables it to deliver,when desired, more than sixtimes the undistorted out-put of the ordinary radioreceiver. This tremendouspower is always under per-fect control, for any degreeof volume from a barelyaudible signal, up to enoughvolume to fill a large Audi-torium.

Most Selective Allwave Receiverin World

No other Allwave Receiver designedfor the reception of foreign broadcastingstations can even approach the high de-gree of Selectivity in the new SCOTTFULL RANGE HIGH FIDELITYALL WAVE. The Selectivity system in-corporated in it, an exclusive develop-ment of the Scott Research Laborato-ries, is continuously variable from assharp as 2 Kc. up to 16 Kc. and enables

in which to cross the Atlantic, there isonly one Queen Mary that will takeyou across the 3000 miles in safety andcomfort in 96 hours. There are manyradio receivers with which it is possibleto receive soine foreign stations, butthere is only.one radio that has builtinto it, the power and the advanced de-sign to maintain regular, unfailing con-tact with the radio stations of the world-the 23 tube SCOTT FULL RANGEHIGH FIDELITY ALLW AVE.

Regular record-breakingLong Distance W orld Wid~Reception, and Full Range(30 to 16,000 cycle) HighFidelity Reproduction, canonly be obtained with a ra-dio receiver large and effi-cient enough to generate thepower necessary. It cannotbe secured with a chassis afoot square with a limitednumber of tubes, and builtby the thousands by massproduction methods, nomore than can the ordinaryocean liner or railroad train,equal the performance ofthe Queen Mary, or the Hia-watha.

Greater Power to Bringin Foreign Stations

The advanced design inthe R.F. circuit, and Litz-endrath 4 Pi coils with airtuned condensers incorporated in thefour stage I.F. amplifier, develops ahigher degree of useable Sensitivitythan any receiver in the world today,enabling its owner to bring in manyweak distant foreign stations, withloud speaker volume which will nevereven be heard on an ordinary radioreceiver.

Custom BuiltEvery Scott Receiver is

custom built by highlyskilled technicians, workingwith the latest scientifictesting instruments, and theresult is a laboratory crea-tion, precision built, and ofsuch advanced design that itis guaranteed to outperformand bring in more foreignstations with greater volumeand clarity, than any otherradio receiver with which itis compared.

The 23-Tube Scott Full Range High FidelityAllwa ve Chassis
