Abstract
THE article on this subject in NATURE of Jan. 18 by Sir Ambrose Fleming is scarcely a complete statement of the usually accepted ‘wave-band’ theory, and unless the more complete aspects of this theory and their significance with respect to the number of wireless telephone stations that can operate on a given range of wave-length, and with regard to the possibilities of the extensive use of television, are correctly stated, it is to be feared that misconceptions will arise.
