Newest Radio Movie Device Sends Images of Any Size PARIS (AP) A, device for the transmission of moving pic tures by radio, in which the size of the image transmitted is not limited, has been developed by a Luxemburg scientist living near Paris. While the transmission and re projectlon of films by wireless has been accomplished by various methods, the Inherent limitations f previous experiments have pre vented them from attaining com mercial Importance. With the de vice of the Luxemburg man the perfection of the image reproduc ed increases with the size of 'the screen, it Is said. The inventor1 says the reverse has been ture in former experiments, the size of the image being limited to dimensions of a few inches and incapable of enlargement without loss of clear, ness. Another advantage is that the use of a positive film is eliminated, the transmission being accomplish ed by using the negative film di rect. This- is said to be an important consideration in the rap- Station Shuts WASHINGTON ( A P ) Changes In the frequency and pow er of broadcasting stations are being made from time to time by the federal radio commission in an effort to remedy reception de fects as they develop. Among the recent alterations is the shifting of KTAB, Oakland, Cal., from 1280 to 550 kilocycles to eliminate cross talk interfer ence between stations in that lo cality. Operators of KTAB have reported Improvement in reception since the change. The power of WHB and KMBC KLDS, both of Kansas City, was reduced from 1000 to 500 watts to stop a pronounced heterodyne on the channel occupied by VRC, Washington. The Kansas City sta tions operate alternately on WltC's frequency of 950 kilocycles. On the recommendation of Com missioner Sam Pickard. who has been making an inspection tour in the middle west, a station in Wis consin was ordered to suspend operation until it could broadcast exactly on its assigned wavelength.

The tranmission and reproduc tion of the film does not necessar ily take place at the time the negative is projected into the apar. atus. The impression of the film la electrically transmitted and mag. netlcally conserved on a series of fine metallic ribbons to permit its subsequent wireless transmission for exposure on the screen either immediately or a later time. The conservation of the inter mediate magnetic impressing be. ing more or less indefinite, the wireless transmission of the pic ture can be repeated without fur ther recourse to the original neg ative film. The registration of sound can be accomplished simul taneously with that of the moving picture Itself. All- Station Talk WCCO.
