Aug 5, 2014 at 15:33 comment added supercat It should be noted that operation of a spark-gap transmitter will by law be limited to power levels far below that of almost any other sort, because such transmitters will uncontrollably emit much of their energy at arbitrary frequencies unrelated to the primary frequency of interest. When the first transatlantic transmitter was constructed at Cape Cod, interference with other radio transmissions wasn't an issue, but that is no longer the case.
