  • Notes

  • THE No. 373-W CARBON TRANSMITTER
    As a standby, a spare microphone transmitter of the well known carbon granular type, as used in the Western Electric Public Address System, is immediately available. This is also a high quality transmitter and has a stretched diaphragm of duralumin, with two carbon buttons one on each side of the diaphragm.

    It employs what is termed the "push-pull“ principle, and although it will not give quite the same high grade reproduction as the condenser transmitter, its output volume is greater. Therefore, it does not require a two-stage preamplifier. It is connected directly to the input terminals of the No. 8-A amplifier.
