  • Working With Thomas Edison

    Working With Thomas Edison
    Fessenden initially had trouble attaining employment with Edison. In his first letter seeking employment, he admitted that he "[Did] not know anything about electricity, but can learn pretty quick," leading Edison to initially reject him -- though he would eventually get hired as a tester for Edison Machine Works in 1886, and for Edison Laboratory in New Jersey in 1887. http://inventors.about.com/od/famousinventions/fl/Reginald-Fessenden-and-the-First-Radio-Broadcast.htm
  • Leaving Edison

    Leaving Edison
    Although Fessenden had been trained as an electrician, Edison wanted to make him a chemist. Fessenden protested the suggestion to which Edison replied, "I have had a lot of chemists . . . but none of them can get results." Fessenden turned out to be an excellent chemist, working with insulation for electrical wires. Fessenden was laid off from Edison Laboratory three years after he began working there. http://inventors.about.com/od/famousinventions/fl/Reginald-Fessenden-and-the-First-Radio-Broad
  • First radio

    First radio
    This was the very first radio ever made by Nikola Tesla & was a huge step up from anything yet made. The radio refers to either appliance that we listen with or the content listened to. However it all started with the discovery of radio waves.
  • STARTING OF THE FM RADIO

    STARTING OF THE FM RADIO
    In 1900 Fessenden left the University of Pittsburgh to work for the United States Weather Bureau, with the objective of proving the practicality of using a network of coastal radio stations to transmit weather information, thus avoiding the need to use the existing telegraph lines.
  • Inventing The FM Radio

    Inventing The FM Radio
    In the late 1800s, people communicated by radio through Morse code, with radio operators decoding the communication form into messages. Fessenden put an end to this laborious manner of radio communication in 1900, when he transmitted the first voice message in history. Six years afterward, Fessenden improved his technique when on Christmas Eve 1906, ships off the Atlantic coast used his equipment to broadcast the first trans-Atlantic voice and music transmission. http://inventors.about.com/od/fa
