Abstract
I FIND that an iron bedstead with wire mattress on the top (fourth) floor of this house answers quite well as antennæ for the receipt of wireless signals. It is only necessary to connect the receiving apparatus, which includes a Brown relay, between the bedstead and the water-pipe to receive the Admiralty signals loudly, and others from various unidentified stations faintly but quite audibly.
