6. Listen to the radio
Check out the History of Radio:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_radio
The pre-history and early history of radio is the history of technology that produced 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 programming and content.
Lists of Radio inventors:
- Jagadish Chandra Bose
- Guglielmo Marconi, who equipped ships with life-saving wireless communications, conducted a reported transatlantic radio communications experiments in 1901 and established the first commercial transatlantic radio service in 1907.
- Alexander Stepanovic Popov
- Nikola Tesla, who developed means to reliably produce radio frequency currents, publicly demonstrated the principles of radio, and transmitted long distance signals. In 1943 the US Supreme Court upheld Tesla's patent number U.S. Patent 645,576.
The reason it is not obvious who invented radio is that the technology is a product of many different discoveries and developments.
