Plotting of Resonance Curves.—A calibration of the closed andopen circuits of a radio-transmitter is frequently desired to determine, let us say,the variation of frequency or wave length occasioned by the insertion of a certainamount of inductance. The results of such measurements are plotted on cross-section paper in the form of a curve (or perhaps a straight line). The principaladvantage of such plotting lies in the fact that it enables one to take a character-istic set of readings at two or more decisive points and thus determine interme-diate values by following the general outline of the curve. Aerial TuningInductance. CondenserScale WATTMETER- Fig. 217- -Complete Apparatus for Measuring Decrement of Antenna Oscilla-tions and Plotting a Resonance Curve. The resonance curve of the radiated wave of a transmitter is a graphic way of showingthe relation between the amplitude of the current and the frequency or wave-lengths at andnear the fundamental frequency. The value of the plotting lies in the fact that it enablesthe experimenter to obtain, in a general way, the over-all distribution of energy in the emittedwave, the decrement of damping and the relative power of the two waves, if present. To plot the resonance curve of the radiated wave, a waveraeter is required, in serieswith which is connected either a hot wire milliammeter or a hot wire wattmeter. Themilliammeter should have a range of, say 40 to 240 milliamperes, while the wattmeter mayhave a scale reading of .01 to .1 watt. The latter instrument is prefe
