Electrical Equivalent of the Antenna.^—The ordinaryelevated antenna is really a large-sized condenser, one plateof which is represented by the elevated wires, and the otherone by the ground or counterpoise. The wires of the antenna have inductance, hence theequivalent circuit would be represented as shown by thedotted hues in Fig. 28. On account of the fact that the in-ductance and capacity are uniformly distributed along thelength of the antenna it is not possible to represent anantenna by single concentrated inductances and RECEIVING EQUIPMENT 59 but values can be selected which will exactly represent theelectrical equivalent at any single frequency. Antenna Series Condensers and Inductances.—To reducethe wave length a condenser should be inserted in serieswith the antenna. This gives a circuit in which two con-densers are connected in series and thus reduces the wave
