This notebook was used by E. Rowland Dawson during April-May 1917 for notes on experimental work done for the U.S. Navy. The experiments are related to those in the A. M. Kennedy Books, and some are continuations of experiments in Books #3 and #4 (N-17-04-05 and N-17-04-01), performed by Dawson while Kennedy was in Alabama. Included are notes on transmitters, receivers, and audions. Also included are experiments on funnels for direction finding. The notes indicate that Dawson reported to Edison through William H. Meadowcroft. The front cover is marked "Dawson." The pages are unnumbered. Approximately 40 pages have been used.
