After radio communication was developed Lodge's lecture would become the focus of priority disputes over who invented wireless telegraphy (radio). His early demonstration and later development of radio tuning (his 1898 Syntonic tuning patent) would lead to patent disputes with the Marconi Company. When Lodge's syntonic patent was extended in ...
The invention of the superheterodyne receiver solved this problem, and the first radios with a heterodyne radio receiver went for sale in 1924. But it was costly, and the technology was shelved while waiting for the technology to mature, and in 1929 the Radiola 66 and Radiola 67 went for sale.
1920s: Radio was first used to transmit pictures visible as television. 1926: Official Egyptian decree to regulate radio transmission stations and radio receivers. [40] Early 1930s: Single sideband (SSB) and frequency modulation (FM) were invented by amateur radio operators. By 1940, they were established commercial modes.
In 1945 on the 50th anniversary of Popov's experiment the old Soviet Union made 7 May a new holiday, Radio Day, the day they claim Popov invented radio. Historians note this holiday may be more due to Cold War era politics than historical evidence. [14] [1] [3] Radio Day is still officially marked in Russia and Bulgaria.
Edwin Howard Armstrong (December 18, 1890 [2] – February 1, 1954 [3]) was an American electrical engineer and inventor who developed FM (frequency modulation) radio and the superheterodyne receiver system.

An early resonant transformer invented by Braun used in the coherer radio receivers in wireless telegraphy radio systems made by the Telefunken company in 1903. Following the invention of his tube, Braun also began researching in the field of wireless telegraphy. A key issue in early radio technology was the development of a reliable receiver.
