AUG 20, 26.. NATIONAL RADIO DAY..

Yet again. Hello NATIONAL TODAY! We welcome your holiday about National Radio Day !! 


National Radio Day tunes in every August 20th.

Patti and I can well remember "Back in our youth in the 1940's" when television did not exist.

Radio.. was.. an.. important.. thing.. in.. our.. families..

Was it only "yesterday"? I clearly remember, on December the 7th 1941, listening to my parents radio as Walter Winchell talked about the Japanese having bombed Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

Patti has her own vivid memories of listening to her family radio!  Here are Patti's recollections: 

"I can vividly picture my parents, my older brother and myself sitting together in front of the 3 foot tall radio in our living room, raptly listening to dramatic and comedy programs together.  Sgt. Preston of the Yukon, The Shadow, Bob Hope, Jack Benny, Fibber McGee and Molly and Amos 'n' Andy were a few of our favorites. We followed these programs loyally!"

National Radio Day celebrates the powerful medium that shaped communication and culture for over a century. From news to music, radio connected communities and informed millions.



Guglielmo Marconi, an Italian inventor and electrical engineer, is widely credited for his pioneering work on long-distance radio transmission and for developing Marconi's law and a radio telegraph system. His innovations in the late 19th and early 20th centuries laid the foundation for modern radio communication. In 1909, he shared the Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy.




However, it took quite a bit of time after the discovery of the radio for the technology to be used as communication. This was both because the inventors hadn’t yet realized the practical and life-changing applications of their development and because there were many more components needed to transmit and detect electrical waves.

Radio continues to reach a vast audience, with approximately 90% of Americans tuning in weekly. This includes traditional broadcast and digital streaming platforms.

We have barely "scratched the surface" of Radio and its history!
