Since as the powercarrying capacity of the repeaters is increased a point is soon reachedwhere it becomes very expensive to go further, high amplificationsmust be secured by letting the transmitted currents become veryweak before amplifying them. A natural limit to this is found in theso-called thermal or resistance noise ^ generated by all natural and largely insuperable noises are introduced by thevacuum tubes in the amplifiers. Other sources of noise are: 1. Telegraph and signaling circuits worked on other pairs in the same cable with the carrier circuits. 2. Radio stations. 3. Noise from power systems, particularly electric ra
