PAA To Broadcast
In Air Over Nome
From The Electra
In an interview with a
Nome Nugget correspond
ent in Fairbanks yesterday,
J. W. Baker, radio techni
cian, and Don Thompson,
radio announcer of the Na
tional Broadcasting Com
pany, who arrived there
Sunday from Juneau
aboard a Pacific Alaska Air
ways Lockheed Electra
plane, plans were disclosed
for flights to be made
around Alaska with PAA
plane, equipped with short
wave radio broadcast mg
equipment, with which con
tact will be nru.de with Ft.
Reyes, California, thence
transmitted by wire across
the continent to NBC broad
casting stations in the East
where it will be released ov
er the air.
Mr. Thompson declared
the purpose of these radio
experiments would be to
demonstrate point to point
short wave radio communi
cation from Alaska, des
cribe the many interested
and factual details of the
country over which they
are flying, and to create a
greater value to Alaska
publicity, through radio
channels.
Lyman S. Peck, General
Manager at Fairbanks of
the Pacific Alaska Airways
also arrived on the plane &
intends making several
flights with the radio-equip
ped plane.
Mr. Thompson, who re
leased much of the inform
ation pertaining to the ra
idio programs to be given
from the air over Alaskan
points, declared he was un
able to state how long they
would remain in Alaska or
, to what points they would
fly
He declared, however,
that Nome would in all pro
bability be visited and a
broadcast made from this
point. When they intend
to fly to Nome was not
made known, but possibly
within the next week.
Ace pilot Joe Crosson of
the PAA is scheduled to be
the pilot on these radio
journeys, which will take
place in the Lockheed Plec
tra equipped with the new
type skiis lately arrived
from the Lockheed factory
in the States.
