NEWEST WIRELESS SYSTEM
FACSIMILE REPRODUCTION i ‘ OPERATOR NOT NECESSARY. * Published In “The primes.” LONDON, January 18. A Marconi expert, Mr G. M. Wright, is perfecting a system for facsimile telegraph transmission, dispensing with a kep-tapping operator and reducing the possibility of error and saving both time and money. A written or typewritten message is simply placed on a cylinder and duly reproduced as a facsimile at the receiving station, ;o which it is dispatched by directional wireless. The Marconi Company says that the system is only workable in conjunction with the beam system, and therefore will be one of the systems used in interEmpire Bervioes. While purely line drawings can be transmitted, the dispatch of half-tone pictures is not yet within range. The main purpose of the experiments is to perfect an economic and commercially practicable form of written communication.
