...bomber converted into an air-going tanker. At some 500 feet the tanker's ejector flung out a grapnel. It hooked around the Caribou's line, skidded along to the tip, locked fast with a corresponding gripper. With the electric potentials of both planes equalized to prevent static sparks, the tanker's crew joined a pipe line to the grapnel, fed it back to the Caribou to be coupled with her gas tank valves. While the two planes soared out over Foynes at 120 m.p.h., the tanker flushed the pipe line with nitrogen (to remove air, which...
Edwin Howard Armstrong, bald, blue-eyed, well-heeled professor of electrical engineering at Columbia University, has made a tidy fortune for himself by inventing the super-regenerative and superheterodyne radio circuits. For the last 25 years he has been working on the problems of static, interference, tube noises and fading. Some time ago, in an effort to get perfectly clear reception, he devised a system of frequency modulation in the transmitter. According to standard broadcasting technique, which relies on amplitude modulation, this was heresy...
