There's quite a bit of historical data missing from the RadCom article. For example, taking into account the EST/GMT time difference, the message taken by Godley was exactly 20 years to the day after Marconi heard (or at least claimed to hear) the 'three dots' sent from Poldhu and received by him in Newfoundland. Again, after having heard 1BCG, Pearson, the Marconi Marine inspector sent a request for 1BCG to send a message. The UK abbreviation of 'MGES' for message was used, rather than the US 'MSGS'...so all the next night, 1BCG kept sending, over and over again, MGES, MGES, MGES.....

The superhet used a resistance coupled IF amplifier with triodes, a triode mixer and local oscillator, and a BFO on about half the IF to avoid blocking the amplifier..
