The receiving battery has a core pole of katultron and an outer shell of metultron. The receiving battery, of course, picks up all frequencies, the undesired ones being tuned out in detection.

He did not wish to urge an undesired escort upon her, but he did not like to think of her working alone by the solitude of the Druids' Tower at night-time. "If I can be of any service to you while you are here at Nîmes," he said, "you have only to send a note to the Villa Clémentine." With that he said good-bye and left her.
