What these Investigators found was that when
an electric spark jumped between two poles there
were started in what the scientists call the ether,
magnetic force lines. These force lines detached
themselves and Travelled through space at
tremendous rate of speed This speed has been
reckoned at $4,000 miles a second 1t was also
learned that these force lines went through space
In wave lengths that could be measured.
Doctor Hertz found that the presence OF these
waves could be detected across a room by means
Of a loop of copper wire This was called the
Hertz loop The ends Of this loop were slightly
Parted. and It was found that the electric spark
on one side of the room caused a small spark to
pass between the ends of the Hertz loop, Sir
Oliver Lodge and William Marcon used the same
spark gap and connected one side Of 1t TO a copper
plate buried in the earth and the opposite side
TO wires strung in the air. When the apparatus
was constructed in this way the electric spark
caused oscillations on the aerial wires and ere
ated a wave that could be detected at a consider
able distance.
The modern wireless station has appliances to
regulate the length of the waves that carry the
messages.
To prevent Interference each ship installation
operates a different wave length and the re-
ceiVing instruments either on the ships the
land stations are able TO cut in tune in those
lengths. The tuner enables an operator to change
the wave lengths on the receiving wires and
get in touch with the Office that is calling.
AT tHe SENATE inquiry the OpSIdlOTS lIOLu Lue
Carpathia and the Titanic were repeatedly asked
what o and means. The effect of these
messages WIS very clear to the operators but they
were not entirely sure what the letters themselves
meant. Inquiries at the Marconi Offices brought
the information that the letters have no signih
canoe in themselves and are simply agreed code
signs.
The call Q D is made by the symbols for the
letters C is dash. dot. dash. dot; Q is dash DASH
dot dash; D is dash. dot, dot. The written dan
ger call of the deep would look like this: -
The call is made up of S: dot dot, dot;
o: dash. dash, dash; S: dot, dot, dot and looks
like this: .; - -;
The C Q sign is a Marconi symbol. Q

Frequently messages of Importance are prefaced
by these letters. means danger 1t was further
stated that was adopted by the Berlin con-
vention in 1902. Every wireless operator under
stands these calls.
In some Of the foreign ships where the opera
tors do not speak English 1t is customary to
write the symbols of the message and have them
translated.

ITO strip wireless OF its technicali-
ties and boil it down 10 the primal
constituents is not hard" said an ex-
pert who has made a study of the
theory and knows the practice, at
is simply transference through space
OF waves of electromagnetic energy.
when a wireless operator presses
a key q spark jumps between two
pieces of metal These two pieces of
metal are connected with long wires,
called antennae, that are strung on
poles called aerials. The energy from
this spark is spread on these wires
and diffused in waves.
These waves have definite length,
which can be determined partly
through the power of the sending sta
ton. The station that is receiving
these is able to put itself in tune to
receive wave lengths of the nature
sent out by the sending station and
exclude others"
Wireless relies on electromagnetic
waves as the source of its communi-
cation. These waves are sometimes
called Hertzian waves and were made
use Of for the first time in 1880 by
Prof. Amos Dolbear of Tufts college.
He applied for patent on a wireless
system that had every essential of the
plan followed today. He got his pat
ent in 1856, which was two years be-
fore Or. Hertz's discoveries.
