[AMRadio] Interesting Web Site on Early Radio

[Kim Elmore]

Perhaps this has been noted before and I missed it (I'm not as 
attentive as I should be). There's a web site that focuses on the 
early development of radio, up through 1927. The web address is 
http://earlyradiohistory.us/index.html and, while I'm not a 
historian, it seems comprehensive. One of the more interesting 
aspects are all the links to original articles and documentation.

I stumbled across this while trying to uncover evidence of early 
(WWI)  radiotelephone communications between aircraft and 
air-to-ground exchanges. There were some, though I haven't yet 
discovered what exactly was used. Could have been vacuum tubes or 
maybe small arc sets. I simply haven't seen what it was. Obviously, 
it was all AM (and all aviation voice comms remain AM to this day).

I have no idea who the author is -- he may have been a ham once and 
was relicensed as a Novice (There's a Thomas H. White the license 
data base) and there is no information about him anywhere on the site.

Anyway, it's a neat site.
