Thanks to Rick N3FJZ for sending this to us. In 25 minutes these fellows manage to capture and explain much of the “magic” of radio. Great shots of Marconi, and of Hertz’s first rig. Amazing how they built their own spark transmitter and coherer receiver, launched a kite antenna and sent a signal across the harbor. Great stuff. Lots of history. We’ve met Mr. Wells before — he was “jailed for having the Knack!”
