Radio Developments during 1935

The year 1935 has not been marked by any startling outstanding achievements in the field of broadcast transmission and reception. In the equipment field there has been a decided trend towards better fidelity characteristics and higher efficiency. New and improved apparatus for the study of radio transmission phenomena is continually yielding fundamental data. The accumulation of these data is resulting in gradual changes in policies of the Federal Communications Commission with respect to the allocation structure which are in accordance with sound engineering principles. New antenna structures are receiving widespread trial. Progress has been made in ultra-high-frequency broadcasting and in the application of frequency modulation methods. Plans have been developed for a coaxial cable which aside from other applications made have an important bearing on the future of high fidelity broadcasting.
