Revision history of "The isotropic antenna"

This is a list of past revisions of The isotropic antenna. Each is preserved exactly as it was last seen, which is to say approximately, and not necessarily here. Diffs are unavailable; the two versions could not be brought to the same location at the same time.

  • cur | prev 1932 a standards committee (talk | contribs) . . (530 bytes) (+210) . . (→ the definition wants the word hypothetical in it, and at the front, so that nobody writes in asking us where one may be purchased)
  • cur | prev 1893 a telegraph engineer (talk | contribs) . . (320 bytes) (+320) . . (created page; a source that sends alike in every direction, as something to compare the real ones against. it need not exist in order to be useful and I do not propose to build one)

Older revisions exist but have not been located. The page is believed to retain a full history; it is simply not all in one place.
