Excerpt from Some Quantitative Experiments in Long-Distance Radiotelegraphy Throughout the experiments, both at Brant Rock and on ship board, shunted telephone readings Were taken on the incoming signals. The detectors used for the shunt readings were of the free wire electrolytic type and the head telephones connected in series were each of 600 ohms resistance,8 the shunt being placed across one of these according to the Fessenden method. The circuits for the galvanometer and for the shunt readings at Brant Rock are shown in Fig. 1. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
