David Edward Hughes (1830-1900) patented a printing telegraph in 1856 
and his machines were used around the world up until about 1940. he also 
sent wireless signals over 500 yards in 1879.

Since 1986 the/AWA Review/ has been *the* authoritative source of peer 
reviewed, well documented, articles on electronic communication history. 
Previously, only available to AWA Members.

With the goal of making this research more widely available, the Antique 
Wireless Association Board of Trustees recently decided to make most 
back issues of the /AWA Review/ available on line. The last 2 years of 
the /Review /will not be available on line, but AWA members will 
continue to receive the annual print edition, which on its own is worth 
the price of an AWA membership
