Cable and wireless links were mentioned..... in 1938??? Quoting: VeraFromChorley [link to i.imgur.com] I probably am misreading it, maybe they mean wireless as in "radio", what we used to call radios years ago??? The first TV broadcasts happened in the late 1920s, if I'm not mistaken. The Nazis were working on a TV-guided missile in the early 40s. |

Honestly I thought television came along a bit later. Wikipedia says the first moving picture was broadcast in 1907. Nikola Tesla advanced much of the wireless research far beyond all others, though Markoney got the credit after putting Tesla's research to work in Europe and taking credit for it. So yeah, that had world wide wireless in the 1930's, just that no one had figured out a use for it yet except Tesla. Nikola Tesla, research as much as you can on that man. He is still more advanced than we have been allowed to become to this day all the way back in the 1800's |

[link to en.wikipedia.org] [link to en.wikipedia.org] "Marconi was awarded a patent for radio with British patent No. 12,039, Improvements in Transmitting Electrical Impulses and Signals and in Apparatus There-for. The complete specification was filed March 2, 1897. This was Marconi's initial patent for the radio, though it used various earlier techniques of various other experimenters and resembled the instrument demonstrated by others " |
