| 2. | Working with Ray Newby, he initially used high-frequency spark transmitters.
|
| 3. | In the early years of the 20th century, before modern spark transmitters.
|
| 4. | Manufacturers produced spark transmitters which generated long " ringing " waves with minimal damping.
|
| 5. | Radio communication at this time employed spark transmitters, which were limited to sending messages in Morse code.
|
| 6. | It was during this period that Fisher developed an interest in amateur radio, constructing rudimentary spark transmitters and receivers.
|
| 7. | This station used a spark transmitter and could only transmit Morse code, so it was never used for entertainment broadcasts.
|
| 8. | Beginning around 1905 continuous wave ( CW ) transmitters began to replace spark transmitters for radiotelegraphy because they had much greater range.
|
| 9. | Another problem with the spark transmitter was a result of the shape of the waveform produced by each burst of electromagnetic radiation.
|
| 10. | Reginald Fessenden's first attempts to transmit voice employed a spark transmitter operating at approximately 10, 000 sparks / second.
