CAPACITY OF CONDENSERS
To find the capacity of condensers use the following formula:
A X KC -
4 X 3.1416 X T X 900,000
C = Capacity in microfarads.A = Area in square centimeters of one set of plates or surface.K = Dielectric constant or specific inductive capacity of the
dielectric used. (Given under " Dielectric Constants.")T = Thickness of the dielectric between the plates, surfaces
measured in centimeters.
250 RADIO FOR ALL
FORMUL.CAPACITY.
Capacity of two plates:
C=2248 X K X A
T X 10°C is capacity in microfarads.K is dielectric constant. See table.A is area of plates in square inches.T is thickness of dielectric in inches.
Capacity of condensers in parallel:C = + C. + + C0 etc.
Capacity of condensers in series:
1 1 1 1 1-= -+ -+ -+ etc.C C1 C2 Ca C4
Capacity necessary for any transformer:

WAVE -LENGTHS OF JERIALSTo calculate the approximate natural wave -length of an aerial,
the total length of the aerial in feet should be multiplied by thefactor 4.5. This gives the natural wave -length of the aerial in feet.This result may be divided by 3.28 to obtain the wave -lengthin meters.
Let us take, for example, a flat -top aerial with a length of 100 feet,connected to a lead-in wire at one end 100 feet long. Then 100 feetplus 100 feet gives 200 feet, and this multiplied by 4.5 gives 900 feetas the natural wave -length. Divided by 3.28, we have 274 meterswave -length.
If the above antenna happened to be connected "T" type, then theeffective radiating length of same would be
100 plus 100 = 150 feet.2
This value, multiplied by 4.5 gives 675 feet wave -length, which,divided by 3.28, gives 206 meters.

ELECTRICAL UNITSRESISTANCE.
The unit of resistance is the ohm. Very large resistances, as forinstance, insulation resistances, are more conveniently reckoned inMeg -Ohms and very small resistances in Micro -ohms.
1 Meg -ohm = 106 ohms = 1 million ohms.1 Micro -ohm = 10-6 ohms = 1 millionth of an ohm.
CURRENT.
The unit of current is the ampere, small currents being reckonedin Milli -amperes or in Micro -amperes.
1 Milli -ampere = 10-3 ampere = 1 thousandth of an ampere.1 Micro -ampere = 10-6 ampere = 1 millionth of an ampere.
E LECI20- MOTIVE -FORCE.
The unit of E.M.F. is the volt, small potential differences beingreckoned in Milli -volts or in Micro -volts.
1 Milli -volt = 10-8 volts = 1 thousandth of a volt.1 Micro -volt = 10-6 volts = 1 millionth of a volt.
QUANTITY.The unit of quantity is the coulomb, which equals the quantity
of electricity conveyed by a current of one ampere flowing forone second.
ENERGY.
The unit of electrical energy is the joule.POWER.
The unit of power is the watt, large powers are best reckoned inKilo -watts and very small powers in Micro -watts.
1 Kilo -watt = 10' watts =_- 1 thousand watts.1 Micro -watt = 10-6 watt = 1 millionth of a watt.
746 watts = 1 H.P.CAPACITY.
The unit of capacity is the Farad, smaller units being the micro -farad and the centimeter.
1 Micro -farad = 10-° farads = 1 millionth of a farad.900,000 ems = 1 micro -farad.1 jar = 1,000 cms.1 Billi-farad = 900 cms.
INDUCTANCE.
The unit of inductance is the henry, smaller units being the milli-henry, the micro -henry and the centimeter.
1 Milli -henry = 10-' henry = 1 thousandth of a henry.1 Micro -henry = 10-6 henry = 1 millionth of a henry.1,000 cms. = 1 micro -henry.1 Coil = 25,000 cms.

SEC. 4. That for the purpose of preventing or minimizing inter-ference with communication between stations in which such apparatusis operated, to facilitate radio communication, and to further theprompt receipt of distress signals, said private and commercialstations shall be subject to the regulations of this section. These regu-lations shall be enforced by the Secretary of Commerce through thecollectors of customs and other officers of the Government as otherregulations herein provided for.
The Secretary of Commerce may, in his discretion, waive the pro-visions of any or all of these regulations when no interference of thecharacter above mentioned can ensue.
The Secretary of Commerce may grant special temporary licensesto stations actually engaged in conducting experiments for the de-velopment of the science of radio communication, or the apparatuspertaining thereto, to carry on special tests, using any amount ofpower or any wave -lengths, at such hours and under such conditionsas will insure the least interference with the sending or receipt of com-mercial or Government radiograms, of distress signals and radio-grams, or with the work of other stations.
In these regulations the naval and military stations shall be under-stood to be stations on land.
REGULATIONSNORMAL WAVE -LENGTH
First. Every station shall be required to designate a certaindefinite wave -length as the normal sending and receiving wave -lengthof the station. This wave -length shall not exceed six hundred metersor it shall exceed one thousand six hundred meters. Every coastalstation open to general public service shall at all times be ready toreceive messages of such wave -lengths as are required by the Berlinconvention. Every ship station, except as hereinafter provided, andevery coast station open to general public service shall be prepared touse two sending wave -lengths, one of three hundred meters and oneof six hundred meters, as required by the international convention in
RADIO ACT OF 1912 261
force: Provided, That the Secretary of Commerce may, in his dis-cretion, change the limit of wave -length reservation made by regula-tions first and second to accord with any international agreement towhich the United States is a party.
OTHER WAVE -LENGTHS
Second. In addition to the normal sending wave -length all stations,except as provided hereinafter in these regulations, may use othersending wave -lengths: Provided, That they do not exceed six hundredmeters or that they do exceed one thousand six hundred meters:Provided further, That the character of the waves emitted conformsto the requirements of regulations third and fourth following.
USE OF A " PURE WAVE"
Third. At all stations if the sending apparatus, to be referred tohereinafter as the "transmitter," is of such a character that theenergy is radiated in two or more wave -lengths, more or less sharplydefined, as indicated by a sensitive wave meter, the energy in no oneof the lesser waves shall exceed ten per centum of that in the greatest.
USE OF A "SHARP WAVE"Fourth. At all stations the logarithmic decrement per complete
oscillation in the wave trains emitted by the transmitter shall notexceed two -tenths, except when sending distress signals or signalsand messages relating thereto.
USE OF " STANDARD DISTRESS WAVE "
Fifth. Every station on shipboard shall be prepared to send dis-tress calls on the normal wave -length designated by the internationalconvention in force, except on vessels of small tonnage unable to haveplants insuring that wave -length.
SIGNAL OF DISTRESS
Sixth. The distress call used shall be the international signal ofdistress . . . - - - . . .
USE OF " BROAD INTERFERING WAVE " FOR DISTRESS SIGNALS
Seventh. When sending distress signals, the transmitter of a stationon shipboard may be tuned in such a manner as to create a maximumof interference with a maximum of radiation.
DISTANCE REQUIREMENT FOR DISTRESS SIGNALS
Eighth. Every station on shipboard, wherever practicable, shall beprepared to send distress signals of the character specified in regu-lations fifth and sixth with sufficient power to enable them to be
RADIO FOR ALL
received by day over sea a distance of one hundred nautical miles bya shipboard station equipped with apparatus for both sending andreceiving equal in all essential particulars to that of the stationfirst mentioned.
" RIGHT OF WAY " FOR DISTRESS SIGNALS
' Ninth. All stations are required to give absolute priority to signalsand radiograms relating to ships in distress; to cease all sending onhearing a distress signal; and except when engaged in answering oraiding the ship in distress, to refrain from sending until all signals andradiograms relating thereto are completed.
REDUCED POWER FOR SHIPS NEAR A GOVERNMENT STATION
Tenth. No station on shipboard, when within fifteen nautical milesof a naval or military station, shall use a transformer input exceedingone kilowatt, nor, when within five nautical miles of such a station, atransformer input exceeding one-half kilowatt, except for sendingsignals of distress, or signals or radiograms relating thereto.
INTERCOMMUNICATION
Eleventh. Each shore station open to general public service be-tween the coast and vessels at sea shall be bound to exchange radio-grams with any similar shore station and with any ship station with-out distinction of the radio systems adopted by such stations,respectively, and each station on shipboard shall be bound to exchangeradiograms with any other station on shipboard without distinction ofthe radio systems adopted by each station, respectively.
It shall be the duty of each shore station, during the hours it isin operation, to listen in at intervals of not less than fifteen minutesand for a period not less than two minutes, with the receiver tuned toreceive messages of three hundred meter wave -lengths.
DIVISION OF TIME
Twelfth. At important seaports and at all other places where navalor military and private or commercial shore stations operate in suchclose proximity that interference with the work of naval and militarystations can not be avoided by the enforcement of the regulationscontained in the foregoing regulations concerning wave -lengths andcharacter of signals emitted, such private or commercial shore sta-tions as do interfere with the reception of signals by the naval andmilitary stations concerned shall not use their transmitters during thefirst fifteen minutes of each hour, local standard time. The Secretaryof Commerce may, on the recommendation of the department con-cerned, designate the station or stations which may be required toobserve this division of time.
RADIO ACT OF 1912 263
GOVERNMENT STATIONS TO OBSERVE DIVISION OF TIME
Thirteenth. The naval or military stations for which the above -mentioned division of time may be established shall transmit signalsor radiograms only during the first fifteen minutes of each hour, localstandard time, except in case of signals or radiograms relating tovessels in distress, as hereinbefore provided.
USE OF UNNECESSARY POWER
Fourteenth. In all circumstances, except in case of signals orradiograms relating to vessels in distress, all stations shall use theminimum amount of energy necessary to carry out any communi-cation desired.
GENERAL RESTRICTIONS ON PRIVATE STATIONS
Fifteenth. No private or commercial station not engaged in thetransaction of bona fide commercial business by radio communicationor in experimentation in connection with the development and manu-facture of radio apparatus for commercial purposes shall use a trans-mitting wave -length exceeding two hundred meters, or a transformerinput exceeding one kilowatt, except by special authority of theSecretary of Commerce contained in the license of the station:Provided, That the owner or operator of a station of the charactermentioned in this regulation shall not be liable for a violation of therequirements of the third or fourth regulations to the penalties of onehundred dollars or twenty-five dollars, respectively, provided in thissection unless the person maintaining or operating such station shallhave been notified in writing that the said transmitter has been found,upon tests conducted by the Government, to be so adjusted as toviolate the said third and fourth regulations, and opportunity has beengiven to said owner or operator to adjust said transmitter in con-formity with said regulations.
SPECIAL RESTRICTIONS IN VICINITIES OF GOVERNMENT STATIONS
Sixteenth. No station of the character mentioned in regulationfifteenth situated within five nautical miles of a naval or militarystation shall use a transmitting wave -length exceeding two hundredmeters or a transformer input exceeding one-half kilowatt.
SHIP STATIONS TO COMMUNICATE WITH NEAREST SHORE STATIONS
Seventeenth. In general, the shipboard stations shall transmit theirradiograms to the nearest shore station. A sender on board a vesselshall, however, have the right to designate the shore station throughwhich he desires to have his radiograms transmitted. If this can not
264 RADIO FOR ALL
be done, the wishes of the sender are to be complied with only if thetransmission can be effected without interfering with the service ofother stations.
LIMITATIONS FOR FUTURE INSTALLATIONS IN VICINITIES
OF GOVERNMENT STATIONS
Eighteenth. No station on shore not in actual operation at thedate of the passage of this Act shall be licensed for the transactionof commercial business by radio communication within fifteen nauti-cal miles of the following naval or military stations, to wit:Arlington, Virginia; Key West, Florida; San Juan, Porto Rico; NorthHead and Tatoosh Island, Washington; San Diego, California; andthose established or which may be established in Alaska and in theCanal Zone; and the head of the department having control of suchGovernment stations shall, so far as is consistent with the transactionof governmental business, arrange for the transmission and receiptof commercial radiograms under the provisions of the Berlin con-vention of nineteen hundred and six and future internationalconventions or treaties to which the United States may be a party, ateach of the stations above referred to, and shall fix the rates therefor,subject to control of such rates by Congress. At such stations andwherever and whenever shore stations open for general public businessbetween the coast and vessels at sea under the provisions of the Berlinconvention of nineteen hundred and six and future international con-ventions and treaties to which the United States may be a party shallnot be so established as to insure a constant service day and nightwithout interruption, and in all localities wherever or whenever suchservice shall not be maintained by a commercial shore station withinone hundred nautical miles of a naval radio station, the Secretary ofthe Navy shall, so far as is consistent with the transaction of govern-mental business, open naval radio stations to the general publicbusiness described above, and shall fix rates for such service, subjectto control of such rates by Congress. The receipts from such radio-grams shall be covered into the Treasury as miscellaneous receipts.
