What these Investigators found was that wnen
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 on through space at q
tremendous rate of speed. This speed has been
reckoned ut 10000 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 room by means
OF a loop of copper wire. This was called the
Hertz loop. The ends OF this loop we're 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 Marconi used the same
spark gap and connected one side Of II to q 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 the aerial wires and cre-
ated wave that could be detected at consider.

The modern wireless station has appliances to
regulate the length Of the waves that carry the
messages.
To prevent interference each ship installation
operates on a different wave length and the re-
ceiving Instruments either on the ships or the
land stations are able to cut In tune In on those
lengths. The tuner enables an operator to change
the wave lengths on the receiving wires, and so
get in touch with the Office that is calling.
