  • Abstract
    The atmospheric disturbances of radio reception on the Atlantic Coast of the United States are classified as to type, effect, and proboble origin. The static reducing systems of the Marconi Company (Weagant system), and of the Navy (Austin, Taylor, and Otter Cliffs systems) are described; and relative performance data of these are given. The improvement in reliability of reception to be obtained by the use of these systems is considered.
