"While we speak of the average
radio day. and show from statistics
that the set is used an average of
two hours a day, you would find that
your set works very irregularly. Its
use is dependent, not merely upon the
popularity and frequency of the pro
grams being broadcast, but upon a
number of other factors, including
your.business, the season of the year,
your home life and the time.
"I know you never have considered
these points, but you’ll find them
logical enough if you’ll think them
over. Just think what a difference
daylight saving, or even the normally
longer evenings of Summer, makes in
the length of your radio day. The
average may be completely upset with
very material changes in the rate of
set use, battery wear and tube life.
Use Set Late.
“If you are putting in long hours
at the office, the chances are that you
will not use the set until late in the
evening. But under such conditions
you may usegrour set more on such an
evening than you would if you reached
home at 5:30 and started right
in.
