I believe if you study the evidence you will see that Tesla was using
mercury in the glass tube and it was actually the first mercury rectifier.
Photographs of the tubes the Tesla made and experimented with can be found
in Leland Anderson's book "Nikola Tesla On His Work With Alternating
Currents".  Tesla was using these tubes in his experiments in his New York
labs before Colorado Springs. Then in Colorado he possibly had a tube in the
antenna to rectify the voltage to DC. This was to allow for VLF oscillations
to resonate the Schumann Cavity, producing the Schumann Resonance Wave,
which in turn was modulated at 60kHz to generate the "Tesla Power Wave".
Probably Tesla was contructing equipment which combined the earth resonance
facility of the 8Hz range with the practical reception afforded by a 60kHz
frequency. The 8Hz and 60kHz transmitted together form the Power Wave. If
you look at pictures of the outside of the Colorado Springs Lab you will see
a tower with a ball next to the main antenna. This is actually a pendulum
attached to the surround plate. You can also see a long trench in front of
the main building which some believe was a Roger's underground radio
antenna. This was tuned with the vertical antenna to acheive the Power Wave.
Of course Tesla specifically picked the site at Colorado Springs. If you
take into the consideration the red iron oxide soil and the altitide, this
too would become part of the antenna tuning at 8Hz.
