much broader range of sending. The
main studio in the Rivard Building is
being enlarged and its facilities are
being made modern in every respect,
including a comfortable and attractive
reception room which is connected
with the studio by plate glass win
dows. The company is installing a
receiving set in the reception room so
that those waiting may enjoy the pro
gram twihout being present in the
studio while other artists are broad
casting. The company has also in
stalled an auxiliary studio in the Nel
son hotel which is used for broadcast
ing programs that do not require the
use of the main studio.
Radio reception from the Ketchikan
station has been unusually good re
cently, and K G B U has during the
past few weeks received reports of j
good reception of it’s programs from
all over Alaska, Canada and the States
