  • Jack Gray − DIT/VTI 1832 in October, Samuel F
    Composite Timeline Wireless − Jack Gray − DIT/VTI 1832 In October, Samuel F. B. Morse was returning to the United States from a three-year stay in Europe via the ship Sully. On October 19, Dr. Charles T. Jackson of Boston was talking on the science of electricity, with demonstrations. His demonstration of the electromagnet and the speed of electricity in a conductor gave Morse the idea of the telegraph and of using a pencil attached to a magnetic clapper to copy the signals. The idea of the dot and dash code was also developed in this year. Before the ship docked in New York, Morse had drawn up an idea for his telegraphy and began work on it almost immediately after arriving home. 1833 K. F. Gauss and W. E. Weber used a two-wire telegraph line for communications between the observatory and the laboratory at the University of Gottingen. The line was about 8,000 feet long. This was probably the first use of the binary code in telegraphy. Signals were detected by the movement of a magnetic needle. The telegraph was in operation for about five years. Weber realized the future value of the telegraph when he wrote: "When the globe is covered with a net of railroads and telegraph wires, this net will render service comparable to those of the nervous system of the human body." 1834 Samuel Morse received permission from the B&O Railroad to string four wires along the tracks from Washington to Baltimore. The terminals were to be located in the Supreme Court Chamber of the Capitol, and in the Pratt Street Depot in Baltimore.

    Before the FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Washington, DC In the matter of: ) ) RM-_____________ Amendment of Parts 2 and 73 to protect the ) historical significance of heritage AM ) MB Docket ___________ broadcast call signs ) PETITION FOR RULEMAKING Today is August 20, it is National Radio Day. The organizers of National Radio Day describe it as “a time to honor one of the most longstanding electronic media and its role in our everyday lives.”1 Five years from now, we will be celebrating the 100th anniversaries of the first licensed broadcast stations. Many of these stations, started by amateurs and experimenters were the first voices over the air. In addition to those pioneers, companies like Westinghouse Electric were setting strides in wireless. To this day, Westinghouse’s legacy lives on in stations such as WBZ and KDKA. AM radio has withstood the test of time Radio has changed many times over the years. New technology such as the ultra short waves that would eventually become FM radio and that new contraption called the television not to mention all of those satellites above us have all succeeded AM radio. AM radio technology has pretty much stayed the same over the years. It has definitely withstood the test of time. In the 1920s and into the early 1930s, a total of over 1,750 broadcast facilities were established. Of those, over 1,150 did not make it past June 1, 1932. For the over 600 stations that made it past 1932, 397 of them made it past the year 2000 and most are still on the air today.2 1 - http://www.nationalradioday.com/about/ 2 - This is based on extensive research conducted by the REC Radio History Project which digitized the information from the Radio Service Bulletin series of public notices from 1920 to 1932.
