Summary

Description
English: American engineer John Stone Stone's radiotelegraphy communication system, from his 1900 patent. On the left is the spark gap transmitter, which transmits pulses of radio waves when the telegraph key (k) is pushed. On the right is the coherer receiver, with a telegraph sounder (R) which produced clicks when the pulses of radio waves were received. Stone's system is important historically because it is one of the first inductively coupled radio systems and was involved in a litigation with Guglielmo Marconi ending in a famous 1943 Supreme Court decision. The zigzag lines labeled I1 and I2 are the windings of the transformers.
