BAXKNRATON WILL BX HUB OF "WOKOWAY1" UPKATXK STATION A series of tho newest type of • ^'microwave" radio relay stations, Resigned to handle television, sound radio programs, or long distance telephone calls, is to be constructed between Chicago and Milwaukee, the American Telephone and Telegraph company has announced. The Long Lines department of the company JUed applications with the Federal Communications Commission for authority to build Mid operate this Super high-frequency radio relay fjystem on an experimental basis. So6h systems are expected to play j|n important part in future communications in combination with the nation-wide network of coaxial cables Warn under construction. At . the time another radio relay is being built between New alreadr'tnhM place On December 1, television of tike anaynavy football game was ttaanttted successfully via coaxial cable between Philadelphia and New York. Starting next month, regularly scheduled television programs will go over Bell System cables from Washington to New York. The stations will be spaced about twenty-five miles apart. Because microwaves travel along a line-of-sight path, high antenna towers are required so that the radio waves will not be obstructed either by hills or buildings. At the center of a twenty- five mile path, the earth's curvature amounts to about 104 feet. Along the Chicago-Milwaukee route, the terrain is fairly level, so that station antenna towers about 120 feet in height will insure sufficient clearance for the straight-traveling microwaves. A building will be erected at the foot of each tower to house the power and other ment needed.
