Sunday Morning, January 24, 1937 THE ABILENE MORNING REPORTER-NEWS REMOTE CONTROL PROGRAMS ORIGINATE OUTSIDE tel studios lo the telephone office. There it is placed with other lines the plant, Mosquito and Ambler, it comes out cable and then is carried by open wire lo plant By MARY McKENZIE I scattered in the studios, control editor's Note: This is the room and reception quarters. This is lv B0es underground into i fourth in a series of articles the "monitoring" system, for eny Buu dealing with broadcasting or listening to the output (Ions, (he stories written from an I of the program amplifier. Thus, an operator hears everything that is going on the wires to the plant by listening the control room loud- explanation given by W. W.

Robertson, manager of KRBC.) Frcquently ii KRUC announcer Is heard to say "This program is coming lo you by remote control." In fact, there were 230 such broadcasts between the time the station opened in and January 1. A remote control program is any broadcast originating outside the whether it be from a local rhurch, store or on the street or from a distant point. On all remote set-ups, the operator takes along a microphone--in which the reproducing element is a crystal of Rochelle salt--and a 'portable amplifier. Purpose of the latter is to boost sound up sufficiently to overcome any noise or loss of energy in the special line leased from the telephone company. The line connects the remote point and the studio, transmitting the program from any point into the mixing panel in the control room.

Beside the circuit line, there Is a telephone line between remote point and studio. Of the 230 remotes before first of the year, the programs were divided as follows: music 95, news 66, church services 30, football 17, Man A the Street 12, birthday club sev- basketball two, speech two, pa- two, and pep rally three. After the program leaves the mixing panel, it must be still further amplified before it will be strong enough to reach the plant over special lines. Tile goes from the mixing panel into a larger amplifier, purpose of which is to magnify the sound more. Still another amplifier in the control room has for its sole purpose the driving of loud speakers it does proceed from the Hilton ho- speaker.

The same sound goes Into the reception room loudspeaker and into loudspeakers in each studio, purpose of which is to keep announcer or talent inside a studio acquainted with what is going on outside the stndio room. It gives them the cue lo start their part. When a microphone in a studio is connected with the mixing pan el--the loudspeaker comes on. When It is connected, it is known as a "hot 1 or "live" mike, and lights over the studio doors, inside and outside indicate that sounds from that studio are going out over the ether lanes. Prom the large amplifier, into which the program goes after lea ing the mixing panel, the sounds go over the circuit line to the transmitting plant.

Lines are different from regular telephone lines in only one respect, they do not go through any of the telephone exchange equipment. In common with all radio service, they are watched a to be Hie transmitting room.

Line troubles include bail connections, loose. joint hi wire, or a short circuit. An ordinary line has two wires. Trouble may be caused by one wire coming In contact with the ground by falling down, fusion of two wires, wet cable or defective equipment in studio and plant.
