currents must build up in phase and accordingly affect the oscillation detector connected to the terminals of the coil L-3. The principle, of course, holds good when the tive spacing of the two loops in respect to the wave length being received.
     The magnitude of the E.M.F: s generated by the signal
negative half of the signal wave acts upon B', and the positive half on A'.
     The foregoing may be stated in another way by saying that the static waves arrive at the two aerials at the same time, while the signals arrive at the two aerials at different times.  Therefore the static currents in the two loops at any instant are in phase and the signal currents are out of phase by an amount depending upon the effec-		 waves will always give a resultant depending, upon the effective separation of the loops; that is, the distance from center to center of the loops. If this separation is one-half wave length, the E.M.F.'s generated in the coil L-3 by the signal currents from loops A' and B' will be in phase and the resultant is therefore equal to the arith-metical sum of these two E.M.F.'s.   If the loop separation is equal to one-quarter wave length, then the E.M.F.'s acting on the coil L-3 will be 90 degrees apart and the
