The invention of radio is attributed to several individuals who made significant
contributions to the development of the technology.
Guglielmo Marconi
is credited with making the first wireless radio transmission in 1895. Marconi was
an Italian inventor who conducted a series of successful experiments with wireless
communication in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was able to transmit
Morse code signals over a distance of about 1.6 kilometers (1 mile) in 1895, and
continued to develop and improve his wireless technology over the years. Marconi's
work was instrumental in the development of modern wireless communication, and he
is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of radio technology.
Thomas Edison is another prominent inventor who made contributions to the development
of radio technology. Although he did not invent radio, he did conduct extensive
research on wireless communication and developed numerous devices that contributed
to the development of radio, including the carbon microphone.
Frank Conrad, an American electrical engineer, was also an important figure in
the development of radio. Conrad is known for creating the first radio station,
KDKA, which began broadcasting in Pittsburgh in 1920.
Lt.-Commander
Edward H. Loftin, U.S.N. claims he was the first. Kirt Blattenberger claims it was Thor,
as he sent messages to offenders via lightning bolts.
