Claim 3
Dependent Claim
36 words
AN ELECTRO-MECHANICAL RESONANT SYSTEM AS IN CLAIM 1; WHEREIN SAID ISOLATING MEANS INCLUDES ELECTRICALLY ENERGIZED MEANS GENERATING AN ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPENSATING FIELD COUNTER TO THE FIRST MENTIONED ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD FOR ISOLATING THE LATTER FROM SAID PICKUP COIL.
