From "Vancouver Daily World" March 23, 1922

      After strenous effort and a night of the most thorough tests The World begins its broadcasting service today from its high power radio station on the Spencer Building.  The equipment which Mr. Louis Wasmer, recognized in the United States as one of the foremost experts in the radiophone business, has personally supervised in its erection and tests, has already proved to be one of the finest on the coast.  The World has entered the radio field so thoroughly that the management is positive of the very best results.  The World Offices has been flooded with inquiries for the receiving sets for homes and offices supplied by the Trans-Canada Radiovox Company.  And, more interesting still is the fact that representative of the large mining companies and firms having branches in the interiior, where telegraph connections are difficult and expensive, have been begging for quick installation of powerful receiving sets to assist communication. 

       World readers are most interested, of course,in the set for the home.  The $25.00 crystal detector receiving set, supplied by The Daily World through the Trans-Canada Radiovox Co., Ltd., is guaranteed to pick up the World broadcast for a radius of 50 miles from Vancouver.  It is sold for $25.00 and includes one hundred feet of copper wire, for the aerial, head telephones  and the necessary government licence.
