I heard that part of Teslas transmitter is still in a pit near the Wardenclyffe building and that it was designed so it could be raised or lowered for tuning. Is this true?
The “pit” that you heard about is probably a reference to the 120 foot deep well-like shaft that was positioned directly below the immense wooden tower which can be seen in many old photographs of the Wardenclyffe site. It was excavated so that a series of iron pipes could be installed deep underground to serve as a connection between the oscillator and the earth. After Tesla lost the property, practically everything of value was stripped from the site for salvage. In light of this fact it is unlikely that any equipment remains in the now back-filled shaft. Recent bore-hole surveys reaching all the way down to the 120 foot level tend to support this conclusion.
