This improvement was described by the author in a discourse which he had the honor to deliver in the royal institution in February, 1900. Apart, however, from these improvements introduced into the receiving circuits, it had been for some time apparent that one diffi- culty in the way of obtaining syntonic effects was caused by the action of the transmitting wire. This straight rod or wire in which electrical oscillations are set up, forms, as is well known, a very good radiator or emitter of electric waves; but at the same time in all such.
