13-Story Radome
Is Rell Project
A 13-story high radome for the
Bell System’s satelite communi
cation station in Andover, Me.
was recently Inflated as perma
nent replacement for a tempo
rary radome erected Hast Octo
ber. In a precisely controlled op
eration, the 20-tone air supported
structure replaced a similar unit
used over the last six months for
weather - production during con
struction of a giant horn anten
na, said E. F. Farris local tele
phone manager.
Bell Telephone Laboratories
engineers will use the antenna
to carry out experiments in com
munications by way of Telstar I,
the Bell Systems experimental
satellite launching this summer.
The satellite will relay expert
mental microwave signals carry
ing telephone calls, data signals
and television.
The temporary radome Is ma
de of dacron fibre coated with
hypalon sysrthetic rubber, mater
ials practically transparent to
radio waves. Segments of the
material were bonded together
to form a single piece some 120,
00 square foot in size.
The new radome, like the one]
it replaced, is 210 feet wide and]
161 feet high. It has an over-all
thickness of .07 inches with a
tensile strength rated at 1000 po
unds per square inch.
Supporting air pressure, which
can be adjusted for wind velo
cities, varies from about one twe
ntieth to one tenth pound per
square inch. It holds the radome
rigidly in place.
The horn antenna covered by
the radome weighs 340 tons and
is 177 feet long. Built as accur
ately as a fine watch, it will tra
ck the Telstar satellite - some 3
000 miles in space - smoothly
and continuously to an accuracy
of better than one-twentieth of a
degree. The radome removes so
me of the factors that would re
duce this accuracy, like wind str
ess, icing and rapid temperature
changes, Farris said.

radomes are the 'largest inflat-1

AUTO FAX — Households in
the western part of the United
States have a higher percentage
of automobile ownership than
other sections of the country. So
says the 1962 edition of Auto
Fact and Figures, statistical
yearbook published by the Auto
mobile Manufacturers Associa
tion.
This is one of the many items
on motor vehicle and highway
transportation information con
tained in the colorful 70-page
booklet.
In a study of all US house
holds, 85 percent of western fa
milies owned cars. Thirty per
cent owned more than one car,
compared with 18 percent multi
car ownership in southern and
eastern households.
The AiMA publication further
showed that 57 percent of all
US households owned one car,
19 per cent had two and 25 per
cent owned three or more.
Th fact book also showed that
ownership and use of motor ve
hicles were at an all time high
in 1961. More than 76 million re
gistered vehicles traveled an es
timated 733 'billion miles during
the year. Of these vehicles, 63.5
million were passenger cars and

penned this verse around 1900:
'1It doesn' shy at papers as they!
blow along the street;
It cuts no silly capers on the
dashboard with its feet;
It doesn’t paw the sod up all
around the hitching post;
It doesn’t scare at shadows as a
man would at a ghost;
It doesn’t know the manger and
It doesn’t waste the hay, ]
Nor put you into danger when
the brass bands play.”
