Index.
The startling discovery twelve years ago of what is popularly known
as Wireless Telegraphy has received many no less startling additions
since then. The official name now given to this branch of electrical
practice is Radio-Telegraphy. The subject has now reached a thoroughly
practicable stage, and this book presents it in clear, concise form.
The various services for which Radio-Telegraphy is or may be used are
indicated by the author. Every stage of the subject is illustrated by
diagrams or photographs of apparatus, so that, while an elementary
knowledge of electricity is presupposed, the bearings of the subject
can be grasped by every reader. No subject is fraught with so many
possibilities of development for the future relationships of the
peoples of the world.
