A Resourceful Engineer
RRAPI0 was recently called. upon to act as an assistant to the engineer in charge of the operations of laying a pipeline across a lake in Germany. The working force was distributed over a large area, and as it was important that the lowering of the pipe should take place simultaneously along its entire length, a portable transmitter was installed beside the engineer’s levelling instrument. His orders were picked up by a receiver mounted on a motor-truck, amplified, and finally ‘broadcast’ to the workmen.
