Practical wireless telegraphy; a complete text book for students of radio communication . nals is obtained, which, in fact, canfrequently be heard with the receiverslying on the table with the transmittingstation 3,000 miles distant. Marconi trans-oceanic receiving stationsare also completely equipped with dictaphonereceivers which are arranged so that immediately one wax record is indented withsignals, a second dictaphone receiver is automatically connected in the circuit, and so use of these records permits trafiic to be dispatched across the ocean at speeds up to75 words per minute, which is afterwards transcribed on the type,writer by the receivingoperator at speeds varying from 30 to 40 words per minute. Obviously this system willpermit a greater amount of traffic to be handled between two stations and it will, therefore,be employed when atmospheric electricity is not too severe. 239.
