MOST NORTHERN
RADIO STATION
ON THE KOSUK
N OM L.—(Special)—The furthest
north radio station on American soil
now open and doing business is oper
ated under the auspices of the bureau
of education at Norvik, on the Kobuk.1
This is the now native settlement
established by the bureau of educa
t on on a native reservation made for
that purpose. Last summer a teach
er who also understood radiography
arrived from the outside and with him
was shipped a wireless outfit. A few
days ago Nome was startled by the
bureau radio man sending down noti
fication that his station was in work
ing order and asking for the news.
The wireless man had overlooked the
fact that this station had been erect
ed and first thought that they were
being strung by some smart Alec with
a transmitting apparatus. After a
while, however, they realized the fact
in receiving a regular message in due
>rm from the Norvik station. It w
v. ported that the bureau of education
has under consideration the erection
of another wireless station at Barrow.
wh*u<-l\ regular communication
tn rough Norvik may be had with this
T ent •"! the Arctic ocean and Nome
and l.bt outside. Any important new*
ma«ic» which night be well to make
known from the north couid then be
tramnitted from Banow. The
scheme will likely sec realization
some of those days, and radios will
he common as a rancher’s phone out
side.
