PROGRESS OF RADIO
THROUGH THE YEARS
wireless Research Began long
Ago, But Development Has
Been Swift Lately.

Wireless research started many
years ago, a far back even as 1927.
Even the radio telephone is not a re-
cent perfection; rather it is that intro
dnction to the layman OF the human
voice and music has suddenly popular
lied something that wireless men had
thought a pastime or amusement. Here
is the chronological record of wire
less:
1827-It was found that the mag
netic discharge from a leyden jar
would magnetic a steel needle.
1881 - Electromagnetic induction
was discovered between two entirely
separate circuits by Michael Faraday.
1837-Cooke and Wheatstone OF
London, England, and Morse of the
United States take out first patent for
electric telegraph.
183S-K. A. Steinhen of Munich
suggested that a system of wireless
telegraphy could be established after
his discovery of the use Of the earth
return.
1S40@Joseph Henry fU. S. Az pre-
duced the first high-frequency elec
trie oscillations. and stated that the
condenser discharge is oscilatory.
1872 Wireless experiments were
made by S. f. B. Morse by electric
cOnduction through water acros:
Washington canal and across wide
rivers.
1S43-A wireless SYSTEM for trans
atlantic communication was suggested

prOhibitive for commercial use.

mulgated the rules regulating appeals

ance.
