Which outcome primarily enabled early long-distance telegraph lines before electronic amplifiers?

💡 Explanation

Before electronic amplification, signal attenuation limited telegraph range, so repeater stations used electromechanical relays to regenerate and retransmit the weakened signal. Therefore signal boosting resulted, rather than thicker wires, lower voltage, or higher frequency, which address other signal degradation issues.
