Eli 'Ham' Station Relays Message

Yale University's undergraduate "ham" station WIYU is now prepared to relay messages, free of charge, to all parts of the United States and many foreign countries, including Great Britain, France, and Germany.

With an impending telephone strike, the Yale Radio Club feels "this service will be more than welcome to the community." Frank Coxe, president of the club, stated that most "traffic" arrives at its destination within 24 hours.

The speed with which messages are delivered depends largely on the size of the town to which they are sent rather than the location, since the bigger towns have more "ham" operators. The average time required for a radiogram by a "ham" station is two days.

All messages should be addressed to 995 Yale Station and include the recipient's complete address and telephone number if possible and the sender's address.
