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. Frank Dresser |

He was using the Burger King Calendar while following the Angus Diet - just enjoy life. Do whatever you want. Eat whatever you want as long as it makes you
Have a Happy whomever's day Celebrating whatever day Tesla is the greatest inventor that God ever gave a brain ever! |

You'll notice that your name is included in my posting. I cut and pasted to the wrong place. My humblest apologies to you and Mr. Dresser... ;-) From Wikipedia: In 1943, the Supreme Court of the United States credited him [Tesla] as being the inventor of the radio. |

From Wikipedia: In 1943, the Supreme Court of the United States credited him [Tesla] as being the inventor of the radio. The Supreme Court can get it wrong. They also asserted that Lee de Forest invented the regenerative detector. But what is radio? Is it just tuned circuits or is it the transmission of intelligence using radio waves? As far as I know, Nikola Tesla didn't have much more interest in the communication potential for radio than Tom Edison had in the "Edison Effect". And, lets not forget that Heinrich Hertz's experimental apparatus could have also been used to transmit information with radio waves. But, I'm sure we can all agree it was a good thing for radio that the broadcast power scheme failed. Frank Dresser |
