	Institute of Radio Engineers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the first half of the 20th century, radio communications has experienced great expansion, and the growing professional community of developers and operators of radio systems required standardization, research, and authoritative dissemination of new results among practitioners and researchers.
		The IRE was a major participant in planning of the Federal Radio Commission (established 1927; later the Federal Communications Commission), and worked in close cooperation with the National Electrical Manufacturers Association, the Radio Manufacturers Association, the Radio and Television Manufacturers Association, and the National Television System Committees on Standards.
		Until the early 1940s IRE was a relatively small engineering organization, but the growing importance of electrical communications and the emergence of the discipline of electronics in the 1940s have increased its appeal to practitioners.

	American Institute of Electrical Engineers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The American Institute of Electrical Engineers was a United States based organization of electrical engineers that existed between 1884 and 1963 (when it merged with the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)).
		Radio and wireless communications became the major focus of a rival organization, the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE, established 1912).
		The dynamic growth of radio technology and the emergence of the new discipline of Electronics in the 1940s led to stiff competition between AIEE and IRE, with IRE showing faster growth in the 1950s and early 1960s, and attracting more students.

	United States Radio Development (1917)
		The word "radio" came into marked use in place of "wireless" in 1907, and was officially adopted by The Institute of Radio Engineers in 1911 and shortly thereafter by the United States Government.
		The sinking of the "Republic" and the use of radio caused the public to recognize that it was of value, and its subsequent use (as, for example, on the S. "Ohio," and lastly, with the "Titanic") made such an impression that Congress passed laws requiring and controlling radio.
		The Institute of Radio Engineers, formed by the combining of the Society of Wireless Telegraph Engineers and the Wireless Institute, was developed in the former organizations, principally by the persistent efforts of a few individuals.

	Ham Radio and Radio Astronomy
		Ships were equipped with radio, huge commercial stations were set up to handle intercontinental messages after the fashion of the telegraph companies, and many other uses were found for the new technology.
		Thus, when the first government regulations were imposed on radio in 1912, the amateur operators ("hams"), whose interest in radio was personal and experimental, rather than commercial, got the short end of the stick.
		Reber's radio astronomy work continued for a number of years, and his results were published in the Proceedings of the Institute of Radio Engineers, the Astrophysical Journal, Nature, and the Journal of Geophysical research.

	Radio Astronomy Pioneer Dies
		Reber was the first person to build a radio telescope dedicated to astronomy, opening up a whole new "window" on the Universe that eventually produced such landmark discoveries as quasars, pulsars and the remnant "afterglow" of the Big Bang.
		Reber was a radio engineer and avid amateur "ham" radio operator in Wheaton, Illinois, in the 1930s when he read about Karl Jansky's 1932 discovery of natural radio emissions coming from outer space.
		The National Radio Astronomy Observatory is a facility of the National Science Foundation, operated under cooperative agreement by Associated Universities, Inc.

	History of the IEEE
		As the membership of the Institute grew, efforts were made to increase the participation of those living in other parts of the country.
		The Institute began successfully, but by 1912 membership had fallen to 27 from a high of 99, and Marriott's society was struggling to stay in existence.
		In the years prior to World War I, maritime radio was the most important segment of the industry and coastal cities had the largest concentrations of radio engineers.

		Thorough and complete engineering analyses were made of every kind of material that was to go into the finished product, for it was to be the finest that human ingenuity could produce in order to be a worthy successor to a long line of musical instruments.
		Engineering is by no means confined to the laboratory, for groups are continually in the field making performance tests of new models, working out problems of the merchandising organization, and keeping in touch with the activities and methods of other factories.

	Short History of the IEEE
		IEEE in short is an organization formed by the consolidation of AIEE (American Institute of Electrical Engineers) and the IRE (Institute of Radio Engineers).
		This growth in the technology and the planning for an international Electrical Exhibition to be held by the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia prompted twenty-five of America's most prominent electrical engineers, including Thomas Edison, Elihu Thomson and Edwin Houston, to issue a call for the formation of a society to promote their burgeoning discipline.
		Electronics engineers tended to become members of the IRE, but the applications of electron tube technology became so extensive that the technical boundaries differentiating the IRE and the AIEE became difficult to distinguish.

		Glover had made a request to the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, one of the five Founder's Societies, for the establishment of a student branch at Cal Poly.
		The much younger and less sophisticated organization, the Institute of Radio Engineers in 1947, organizing student branches for the first time (by now the AIEE had 126 student branches) invited the ELandR Department to organize a student branch.
		The fact that this student's father was a middle management engineer with the company in Schenectady should not be overlooked.

		The institute of Radio Engineers grew out of the merger of two earlier organizations, the Society of Wireless Telegraph Engineers and the Wireless Institute.
		A second attempt to form an organization of radio engineers was begun by Robert Marriott in 1908 and was clearly influenced by the success of the AIEE.
		The members of the institute agreed from the beginning to publish papers and related discussions in a new publication, The Proceedings of the Institute of Radio Engineers, with the first issue in January 1913.

		The need for a professional organization to service a growing population of workers in the field of ultrasonics was promoted by a group of engineers and scientists whose dedication can be compared to that of a 19th century missionary movement.
		The corrections to the minutes of the PGUE administrative committee meeting of June 25, 1955, states in part, "Considerable discussion was devoted to the question of whether the scope of interest includes the field of piezoelectric devices and their applications, for example, frequency control devices.
		Near the close of 1963, the membership was asked to vote on a proposal to change the name from the Professional Group on Ultrasonic Engineering to the Professional Group on Sonics and Ultrasonics with a broadened definition of the scope of interest for the group.
