MUSS IB WHILE IHNI
While talking over a telephone a
few nights ago, Sergt. George McNam
ara, of the local cable office, heard a
peculiar buzzing of the phone receiv
I ei which his trained ear soon recogni
?'(I as the dots and dashes of a wire
less message. The message was in
| the Continental code and Mr. Mc
Xamara was able to distinguish sever
al words.
There were no boats in port at the
time and it was before Postmaster
Kindell had his wireless plant in op
eration. The electrical vibrations
| probably camo from the wireless of
fice at Fort Seward, unless they were
?
transmitted from Sitka, Juneau or
some other distant point.
Wireless messages can be received
' on phone receivers and at short range
are some times intelligible trans nil ted
over swinging wires or any steel point.
Saturday afternoon the editor of The
, Alaskan could detect the dots and
dashes from Mr. Kindell's plant which
were registered on a short steel
"copy hook" on his office desk.
If you hear mysterious sounds In
the receiver when you telephone it
will probably be from the wireless
messages which Postmaster Kindell
is flashing out these days.
