Radio Broadcast in 1906
This imge is from http://www.radiocom.net/Fessenden/
President George W. Bush celabrated 100years anniversary of the first radio station in Massachusetts. Reginald Aubrey Fessenden got this honor due to his invention of the world’s first radio broad cast. He worked for Thomas Edison in his New Jersey laboratory as a canadian engineer, and he tried to produce the “wireless telegraph” to carry human voice through the air. The first extended broadcast of human voice was transmitted on December 24, 1906 in Brant Rock in Massachusetts. As President mentioned about how the radio station have done the important role in American society, Fessenden had opened the technological improvement as much as the development in people’s standard of living.
