Is even one textbooks where is wrote that Marconi was WRONG?

Are your transmitters without any earth?

I am checking from time to time if your knowledge have moved on.

Hello Szczepan.

In general, you seem to be looking at outdated techniques and technology.

I guess if you were considering photography you would be asking if wet
plates were still in use and what would be a recipe for a good emulsion. Of
course, film stopped using wet emulsion a century (or more) ago. Wet
emulsion wasn't wrong at the time but it definitely is obsolete.

If you were considering car technology you might be asking about manual
ignition advance/retard. It had its uses but was automated decades ago and
most drivers will not be aware of it. Same thing applies to the choke.

My radio doesn't need to be connected to ground/earth other than for
static/lightning reasons. The theory and technology of radio have made a lot
of progress since the time of Marconi.

Hope this is of some help.
Kindest regards from the UK,
Ian.
