The Next Issue

   The next issue of " Q S T " will be a wonder. There will be an article on the Oscillating Audion, and it will be written in language which no one can misunderstand. Construction, operation, what stations can be heard with one, and theory will be covered in a brief and crisp manner. The amateur will understand this newest radio development when he reads this article. Nauen and Hanover, Germany, are read easily here on a fifty-foot high aerial, using an oscillating audion.


   Another feature of the next issue worth watching for will be on the matter of a Volunteer Radio Corps. It is being suggested by the officers of the League and the chances are that the better amateur radio stations of the country will be recognized by the Government. Big things are certainly coming for the up-to-date amateur. Be sure and arrange so that you will not overlook the next issue.


   A system of testing among amateurs, will be described also in the next number. We all know how difficult it is sometimes to pick up a distant amateur station which we really should be able to easily work. In the next issue a plan is suggested which will help us all.

Miscellaneous

   Everybody please note that we are always glad to welcome contributions from any amateur on a wireless subject. Send us your ideas or photographs or long distance record or anything in the freak line you have noticed. Never mind if you cannot express yourself to your satisfaction. Write it out any old way, and we will do the dressing up if it should need any.


   Remember, everybody, that we will print free of charge for sale and want ads. for second hand apparatus up to any reasonable number of words. Practically the entire amateur wireless contingent of the country will see Q ST and there is always some one who wants what you have to sell or exchange.


   AGENTS FOR QST SUBSCRIPTIONS. We will have a lot of people who want to buy but who have not the necessary personal snap to arrange for a regular subscription unless some one makes it easy for them. The agent has a good opportunity here. We will send one extra copy whenever an agent sends in subscription for four. If an agent sells eight, he receives ten from us. He can sell these and get his commission.
