I hope Edison and Westinghouse are turning in their graves. They both
screwed Tesla out of Billions.

So did Marconi.


Did Tesla have any particular interest in radio? His broadcast power
silliness, with it's inefficency and harmonics , would have killed any
possibility of broadcast radio.

I wonder how Tesla's work would have been different if his first great
rivalry had been with Marconi rather than Edison.
