England Tackles the Multiplex Channel Problem The simultaneous transmission of two high-speed telegraphic services and one telephone service over the same wavelength was recently demonstrated with this apparatus at the English Beam Station at Bridgewater. The demonstration, which was made in the presence of David Sarnoff, Vice-President of the Radio Corporation of America, was conducted between stations at Bridgewater, England {receiving) , and Montreal, Canada {transmitting). Mr. G. A. Mathieu, who collaborated with Senatore Marconi in designing the system, is shown speaking into the telephone. It is claimed that this apparatus diminishes fading to a great extent, and thus gives constant volume of speech and signals. The engineering details of the system employed are not available at present. 244
