	Biography of Guglielmo Marconi
		Marconi was born in the Italian countryside in somewhat modest circumstances.
		Marconi eventually found that if part of the transmitter were placed on the ground resistances were cut dramatically and the signal would travel much farther.
		Marconi was convinced that the wireless could span the ocean and he set out to prove it.

	Marconi: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage
		Guglielmo Marconi was born in 1874 into a wealthy family in Bologna, Italy, and educated by private tutors.
		Marconi was interested in the commercial potential of wireless telegraphy, and the Newfoundland government encouraged him to construct a wireless station at Cape Spear, the easternmost point in Newfoundland and Labrador.
		Marconi knew of the monopoly, and to avoid Anglo-American blocking his experiment he deceived the press as to his real purpose in Newfoundland, claiming that he was experimentally communicating with ships at sea.

		Marconi's achievement was to produce and detect the waves over long distances, laying the foundations for what today we know as radio.
		Marconi could soon detect signals over several kilometres and this led him to try and interest the Italian Ministry of Posts and Telegraphs.
		Broadcasting as we know it was still in the future - the BBC was established in 1922 - but Marconi had achieved his aim of turning Hertz's laboratory demonstration into a practical means of communication and established in Chelmsford the Company which still bears his name.

	Radio's First Message -- Fessenden and Marconi
		Marconi kept building larger antenna systems, larger since he was striving for greater transmission distance and improved signal reception, which lowered the operating frequency.
		Marconi, those working with him, and most experimenters in the new field of wireless communications at the turn of the century, were unanimous in their view that a spark was essential for wireless, and he actively pursued this technology from the beginning (in 1895) until about 1912.
		Marconi's ambition at the turn of the century to demonstrate long-distance wireless communication, and develop a profitable long-distance wireless telegraph service, led to his pragmatic proposal in 1900 to send a wireless signal across the Atlantic.

		Guglielmo Marconi was born on the morning of 25th of April 1874 at the Palazzo Marescalchi in the Italian city of Bologna.
		One summer Marconi went to a hotel in the Alps with his step brother Luigi and brother Alfonso and one night, with the cent and rustle of the pine trees just outside his window, the 20 year old youth lay awake unable to sleep.
		On Thursday the 12th of December 1901 Marconi succeeded in transmitting and receiving transatlantic signals and the morse letter "S" was received at Signal hill, St.Johns, New foundland from Poldhu, Cornwall using a kite aerial at Signal Hill.

		Guglielmo Marconi was born at Bologna, Italy, on April 25th, 1874.
		Marconi had a great interest in electricity and at the age of twelve was further inspired by his teacher, Professor Righi, who was replicating Hertz's experiments in transmitting wireless signals.
		When Marconi set up his equipment at the general Post Office in London and showed that thick walls and roofs made no difference to the transmission of his signals, everyone was amazed.

		Marconi was born on April 25, 1874, the son of a wealthy Italian businessman, Giuseppe Marconi and his second wife, a younger Irish woman, Anna Jamieson.
		Marconi had asked him to stay on and help raise the balloons and kites which were intended to lift a long wire aerial.
		Marconi’s crew attempted to hold the kite borne aerial wire at a constant elevation so as to maximize the possibility of receiving a signal.

	Guglielmo Marconi: radio star (December 2001) - Physics World - PhysicsWeb
		Marconi's 1909 Nobel prize seems all the more extraordinary when you consider that - unlike the physicist he shared it with, Ferdinand Braun - Marconi was not, by his own admission, any kind of scientist, or even much of an inventor.
		Marconi, already shaping up as a businessman, knew that time was one thing he did not have, and the family network swung into action again.
		Marconi had been a member of the fascist party since 1923, but it was not until after he had married Cristina that he became really active.

	Guglielmo Marconi: The Invention of Radio
		After World War II more advancements were made: The replacement of the vacuum tube by the transistor and of wires by printed circuits drastically reduced the power that radio equipment needed to operate enabling radio components miniaturization and more reliability.
		During the years claims were made that as a matter of fact not Marconi invented radio but Oliver Lodge, Alexander (Aleksandr) Popov or Nikola Tesla, had sent wireless messages before Marconi got his patent.
		Marconi's experiment — creating, sending and detecting radio waves — is relatively simple, not beyond the abilities of middle school students.
