After radio communication was developed Lodge's lecture would become the focus of priority disputes over who invented wireless telegraphy (radio). His early demonstration and later development of radio tuning (his 1898 Syntonic tuning patent) would lead to patent disputes with the Marconi Company. When Lodge's syntonic patent was extended in ...
Only Mark gives healing commands of Jesus in the (presumably original) Aramaic: Talitha koum, [104] Ephphatha. [105] See Aramaic of Jesus.

The early history of radio is the history of technology that produces and uses radio instruments that use radio waves. Within the timeline of radio, many people contributed theory and inventions in what became radio. Radio development began as "wireless telegraphy". Later radio history increasingly involves matters of broadcasting.
The timeline of radio lists within the history of radio, the technology and events that produced instruments that use radio waves and activities that people undertook. Later, the history is dominated by programming and contents, which is closer to general history .

The unique feature of this transmitter is that it includes Marconi's invention of a monopole antenna. Marconi found that by connecting one side of the transmitter to an elevated copper sheet "capacity area" (top) and the other side to ground (earth), he could transmit longer distances than when using the previous dipole antennas invented by Hertz.
In the late 1980s or early 1990s, [10] [11] [12] Baylis saw a television programme about the spread of AIDS in Africa and realised that a way to halt the spread of the disease would be to educate and disseminate information by radio. [11] [13] Within 30 minutes, he had assembled the first prototype of his most well-known invention, the wind-up ...
