SUMMARY
The discussion centers on the transmission of electromagnetic (EM) waves using coils, specifically addressing the characteristics of a transmitter operating at approximately 6 MHz with amplitude modulation. It clarifies that while multiple EM waves are emitted, the energy is not divided equally among them; instead, the amplitude of each wave varies based on factors such as carrier power, modulation, and distance. The energy radiated from the transmitter forms spherical waves, with intensity diminishing according to the inverse square law (1/d²) as distance increases.
