, the interrupter operates, sending out
from the coil an intermittent current
which, traversing the line and the dis
tinct receiver, gives out a sharp note
This current can be translated into
the Morse alphabet. BY pressing a
button on the side of the transmitter
the instrument is at once transformed
into field telephone.

telephone receiver. the intense buzzing
sounds sent out as Morse signals are
