Abstract
Carrier telegraph systems using frequencies above the voice range have been in use for a number of years on open-wire lines. These systems, however, are not suitable for long toll cable operation because cable circuits greatly attenuate currents of high frequencies. The system described in this paper uses frequencies in the voice range and is specially adapted for operation on long four-wire cable circuits, ten or more telegraph circuits being obtainable from one four-wire circuit. The same carrier frequencies are used in both directions and are spaced 170 cycles apart. The carrier currents are supplied at each terminal station by means of a single multi-frequency generator.Keywords
