WHRB will start its broadcasting this year with a new transmitter carrying more than three times the power of its predecessor. The 100 watt machine, combined with a new United Press teletype and the remodeling of WHRB's Dudley Hall studios is "intended for better coverage and better quality of sound," according to William R. Lamb '52, station technical director.
The original transmitter was installed at the opening of WHRB in 1940. Intended to cover only the seven Houses, it became overloaded as the Network expanded throughout the University. Two years ago WHRB was shut down by the Federal Communications Commission because of excessive radiation, but Network officials expect no trouble from their more powerful transmitter.
