Forinstance, if your transmitter operates on :5705 *609 Park Ave., CollinK-swood 7, N. J. kc, the second harmonic is at 7410 kc., andthe third is at 3 X 3705 or 11,115 kc. Regardlessof the kind of transmitter you use, whetherhomemade or store-bought, small amounts ofenergy at these harmonic frequencies are presentin your final tank along with the useful energyat the fundamental frequency. Such energy cancreate problems whenever (1) there is a largeamount of harmonic energy generated or (2)
