The Father of Radio...

[ShotgunSteven]

I am not asking you to go look up information, I am wondering instead what your current belief is.

The correct answer is in the tenth post of this thread, I just wanted to see what people believed when put on the spot.

Marconi got the patient if I remember correctly, Tesla did it first though

or I could be completely wrong

 

[Mucho]

Guglielmo Marconi

 

[IAteYourMother]

No, i didn't see the poll. It was Tesla probably, and you only posted this to try and go against the popular belief that Marconi was the father of the radio.

 

[jjones]

Well, I was taught Marconi and never had any interest to pursue it further. I don't care if it was Tesla or Marconi or Bozo the Clown.

Tesla was awarded the patent for radio in 1944. The U.S. Supreme Court confirmed that Marconi?s patents infringed Tesla's.

Tesla.

He's a yugo, too.

 

[lozina]

Howard Stern, at least he probably thinks he is.

Actually, I already knew it was Tesla. I was doing some more research on him for an unrelated project and began to wonder how many people actually knew, so I thought I would ask. As for your misguided beliefs behind my reason for posting this, you can STFU n00b.

And don't forget Reginald Fessenden as the first to transmit voice via radio.

LOL! I was thinking the same thing. But of course you mean the "Spirit", not "Father".

For an interesting tidbit, read how Edison went about systematically to destroy Tesla. Kind of like what Galileo tried to do to Kepler who he feared and hated.
