Faults of the Transmitter.—Assume that spark fails to dischargeat the gap when the transmitting key is closed. Unless the apparatus has been actuallyinjured by an accident, the operator should ask himself: (1) Is the alternator generating current? (2) Is the generator field open? (3) Is the primary or the secondary winding of the high voltage transformeropen or on short circuit? (4) Are the high potential condensers punctured? (5) Is there a leakage in the walls of the spark gap muiBer? (o) Test for the Alternator.—If the radio set contains a voltmeter and the meter itselfis not at fault, and furthermore, if it is placed in shunt to the A. C line juid no reading.
