Well, It was a matter of which one, Marconi or Telsa, got to the patent office first? Hummmm? I have the tape. If you would like to borrow it let me know where to send it. Roy
I saw an american experience documentary on radio, it was very interesting Howard Armstrong was the guy who figured out FM. Marconi was the guy who used radio waves to save lives, (sinking ships) one other name i can not remember. The sad part was that everyone ended up in court battling over who had right to what, while the national broadcasting company stepped into the future with tv.

Little Nikky Tesla took it in the kiester so many times on so many different things, that it's hard to believe he was NOT responsible for most of the electrical inventions in history.
Seems like he was the whipping boy for so many "inventors", that you really must wonder WHO actually did the research...
You never know how History gets all screwed up. But I will bet on Tesla.

My doctor gave me six months to live, but when I couldn't pay the bill he gave me six months more.

Did you know that Tesla did'nt need a woman for his manhood? Although single and many women for him. He chose his work. Not Me, I'll go for the girl every time!
This film from Ken Burns is one of my favorites:

I'll try to order the tape next payday. The wife really, she see's the fine print. I saw 20% markdown on the tape. Thanks.

Bon Scott of AC/DC invented radio.
Tesla was truly a genius. His Tesla balls (no wise cracks), sending electrical charges without wires, etc. Gives ME a headache trying to comprehend some of his writings. Awesome guy.
But video killed the radio star, so what does it matter. Of course you can't watch videos on Mtv anymore cause it's all stupid shows. Except Viva La Bam and Jack Ass and Boiling Points.
