Télégraphie sans Fil: Reception des Signaux horaires et des Télégrammes météorologiques

Abstract

THIS little volume gives simply-worded directions for the construction of apparatus that will enable persons interested to make use of the time signals dispatched regularly from the wireless telegraph station at the Eiffel Tower. The author begins with a description of the very simple apparatus required by a Parisian amateur, and gives a clear account, with fully detailed examples, of the time signals and the meteorological messages from the tower. From his story of a day's programme of the tower, including as it does telegraphic exercises with other French stations as well as regular service messages, it would appear that the amateur in the French capital has excellent opportunities of learning Morse with a very small outlay on apparatus.
