The current is prefeiablypassed through a wave filter to obtain a pure note of about 800cycles per second. By means of the switch W this current can betransmitted directly to the telephone receiver or be impressedon the input circuit of the tube. *S represents the artificial fineand takes the forai of a shunt to the receiver. It is, however, Fa.
