Abstract
WHEN a receiving frame aerial is rotated about an axis parallel to the electric vector of an incident wave, then with long waves the frame current changes from zero to some finite value as the frame rotates from a position where its plane is perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation to a position where its plane is parallel to this direction. Upon this fact the normal directional properties of frame aerials depend.
