Abstract
FOLLOWING the annual general meeting of the Radio Society of Great Britain held on December 18, Dr. R. L. Smith-Rose gave a lecture on "Measurements in Radio Experimental Work". After referring to the part played by amateur observers and experimenters in sciences such as astronomy and meteorology as well as in radio, Dr. Smith-Rose emphasized the importance of carrying out quantitative measurements in an orderly and systematic manner, A brief review then followed of the present position in the national laboratories of Great Britain and the United States, of the absolute electrical standards of current, inductance and resistance, and of the practical working standards which are derived therefrom.
