Your voice gets a boost in repeater stations like this one. For currents fade on the lines and without amplifiers, your voice would soon be lost. The equipment can literally turn a faded voice into a roar. Much of it requires only periodic check-ups like the one the technician is giving it here. 2. Vast Western distances make it necessary for us to build stations all along our cross-country lines to keep your voice going through with normal clarity and volume. On some lines repeaters are spaced 70 miles apart. On others they're as close as 8 miles. You may have noticed some of them from the highway. 3. Specially-trained men keep a 24-hour watch at key stations. When they spot possible trouble they get a crew on the job in a hurry often before lines go out. For putting cross-country calls through reliably, with cross-the-street clarity, is part of our job of furnishing the best possible service to the West. 4. When you make a telephone call, you hire a valuable servant at low cost...a more useful servant than ever. It can do more jobs...run more errands. For today there are twice as many telephones in the West as ten years ago. Thousands more go in each week. And each new telephone added makes every other telephone more useful.
