So you can now send and receive, then respond and receive at different "stations" on opposite ends of that board ... I like it!!!

That was the plan but i need another key with the lock out for it to work like that.
No one noticed the beaver.
Noticed ... sure, but unusual things in the background of your photos and videos are more the norm than the exception Lenn, and who could possibly comment on all the things we see in the background around your place when we are continually amazed by whatever new creation you are sharing with us in the foreground!
How long do you figure before he drops that telegraph pole and you have to call a lineman in for repairs?
Thanks Daniel and Jan, the notch was already in the pole so had to add something.
Today we made a wireless telegraph, they would connect a antenna to these and it would transmit the spark to another antenna .
This is what the Titanic had on it which didn`t help them much as the telegraph with the strongest signal would be the one that`s picked up.

I used a model T buzz coil.

Very nice Lenn , you guys were cracking me up with that Morse code business 😉
Thanks Bruce, we re modeled it this morn.
Another addition to the collection a relay, they were used if it was a long line to the next station to boost the signal on the other end.
Thanks buddy, a sounder would be attached on the two far side screws.
Very cool Lenn.
I am really enjoying the thread.
Thanks,
Charlie
