By these methods Poulsen has succeeded in transmittingarticulate speech from Berlin to Copenhagen, a distance of 46t)kilometres, or 290 miles. AVhen a high frequency alternator is used as the source of the. [Reproduced from The Electrician hy permission of the Froprie ors.

The microphone may then be placedin the antenna circuit, and as near the earth as possible, or it maybe placed in a tertiary circuit wound on the oscillation transformeritself. 5. Other Arrangements employed as Transmitters in Eadio-telephony.—To avoid placing the arc in a strong magnetic field andenclosing it in an atmosphere of hydrogen or hydrocarbon, experi-ments have been made with a number of electric arcs in series.It has already been explained, in Chapter III., that the character-istic curve of a continuous current arc is steeper for small currents ^.-/ //(/ t.
