According to a communication from F. J. Gaffney, chairman of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers subcommittee on high frequency measurements, approximately nine hundred people attended the conference on high frequency measurements held January 10, 11, and 12 in Washington, D.C. The conference, which was jointly sponsored by the AIEE, the Institute of Radio Engineers, and the National Bureau of Standards, was the first meeting of its kind to be held on a national basis. It was divided into four technical sessions (devoted to the topics of frequency, power and attenuation, impedance, and noise and antenna measurements) and inspection trips were made by a number of the group to the Naval Research Laboratory, the Naval Ordnance Laboratory, and the National Bureau of Standards.
