On May 29, 1906, Montaghu's squadron armadios produced one of the teachings of this kind in a Bristol Strait near Landy Island (Lundy) and tried to contact Radio with a station on Silly's Islands. The reception of the signal was very unstable, and the ship commander Cappen Adair (Adair) ordered to go on the strait to establish a connection. By the end of the day, the test was successfully completed, and the Eder lay down for a reverse course to Landy Island to accept messages that could expect him on the coastal signal post. Shortly after the occurrence of darkness, the ship entered the strip of a very dense fog, lowered the speed and began to transmit signals with lilac through a certain interval. Nothing suspicious happened, so far, shortly after 02:00 on May 30, it was not heard a clear echo from the siren - a clear sign that the rocks are in front. Machines immediately gave a "full ago", but it was too late.
