1. GC: You will give and describe to us the law of transmission of messages, called radio; how they are sent and received. You will tell us what is the popping or dis-connection, or rumbling that breaks in, which is now called static. What produces this? Is it possible to eliminate same? If so, describe to us the mechanism of an instrument that will eliminate this.
2. EC: Yes, we have the laws as govern these conditions. To give the law in general and to give the law specific as governing an individual instrument would be entirely different in some phases, yet the law in general is as these:
3. To begin with this, as to be understandable, we must first consider that which is and that which we know of as a given law. We know that all force is created by vibration. We know that all vibration becomes electrical in its action and its effect. That is, it either enlivens, bring greater vibration, or being under vibration becomes deadened or destructive to one or the other of the vibrations thus met.
4. That law governing then the vibrations in transmission of messages, as is called radio, is the relativity of vibration as set in motion in any one particular place, and other vibrations attuned to that same vibration receiving through the electrical waves, created by the one through the receiving forces, magnified in the other.
5. In, then, the sending in now called radio a vibration as created by the vibration of whatever nature against a certain vibration of electrical forces, as set by the electrones [electrons?, electrodes?] in the battery producing the vibration against the receiving plate or ring. Other vibration in receiving sets, as called in radio, attuned to these same vibration, or the same electrical forces in electronic vibration, receive or produce the same sound as vibrated against the sending board or ring.
6. In the present electrical forces as received, there has not been taken into the consideration in the distance and in

heat and in light, the action of color as produced in a receiving force.
7. We have given as here as how the vibration, as now called static, may be eliminated, which is, in other words, giving the tone to the vibration as created by the sending ring when received in the receiving set as now in force. That is, the vibration in rings, in circles, as is set, raised by electrical forces, until we produce the equal magnified forces to receive and make them understandable in the receiving sets.
8. Then, to produce the correct, the equal vibration, take into consideration the vibration of color with the vibration as is set in that as has been given here for eliminating the static forces in the receiving radio set now in use.
9. To prepare this, make as given in eight. That is, the figure eight, with the disc, with the slot that receive and remove that vibration as is produced by heat. To receive that vibration necessary, make an instrument as this: With the color in discs that are set, 3's in numbers, that receive the vibration as produces scratches, or that is produces rumblings in the present vibration, which this will relieve. With the figure eight, as given, also connect with this:
10. Prepare another such mechanism, save it is only in the loop or form of a hairpin circle, and on each stem of the hairpin circle there would be placed three discs, red, blue and yellow, of the decided red-red, blue-blue, yellow-yellow. Not orange, not a variation, for all must be eliminated in the circle created. The connection should be made with the same connection as static eliminator, of the same size, of the same circle, and connected before the receiving board gives the vibration in the receiver.
11. Work in this manner and form, with the present usages as set in receiving sets. These will eliminate the greater portion of static and of vibratory forces received in color transmission through the change of waves of heat and cold, as received from the passage of vibration over the various conditions in the transmissions.
12. All force (for the law again) we find is ever present in every atom of vibration, and is subject to all laws of heat and cold and of the other vibrations in the air, or in the vacuum created from time to time by changes, this creating more effect on the vibratory force than other vibrations, for each are in themselves. With the colors we eliminate, for in these we will create the rest.
13. Do that. Bring these to these connections, for it will be worth much to humanity.
