Approval of FCC
Given Radio Net
For Tree Farmers
The federal communications
commission has approved the
radio communications network
application of the Southern Ore
gon Conservation and Tree
Farm association, the group's
secretary-manager, L. L. Simp
son, was advised by wires from
Washington, D. C, today.
Congressman Harris Ellsworth
and Sen. Guy Cordon advised
Simpson of the FCC approval for
the net, which involves a remote-control
broadcast station at
the top of Roxy- Ann butte. Con
trols will be in the association's
office in the Goldy building and
in Simpson's home, permitting
24-hour service to members.
Simpson said today that 22
mobile units of the network
have so far been contracted for
by 20 member companies of the
association. He said that it is
hoped to have 50 sets in opera
tion by the end of the summer.
Sets Scattered
Some of the mobile sets will
be in pick-up trucks or automo
biles, and some will be located
at remote logging operations in
all parts of the county, Simpson
explained. It is believed the
rapid communications afforded
by the network will permit
greater speed in spreading for
est fire alarms, orders for equip
ment from distant operations,
and generally improved service
to member-operators. It is hoped
to have the network in operation
before June 1.
A meeting of the radio com
mittee of the association will be
hold at 8 p.m. next Wednesday
at Mon Dosir, to discuss prob
lems involved in getting the net
work into operation.
