They were called 'wireless', based on what would have seemed at that time to be their most astounding property: no wires. The miracle of communication over the 'wires' through telegraphy was just beginning to be thought of as commonplace.
All satellite radios will have equal reception as they meet a common wireless specification.
While the wireless or radio was invented in 1895, it was not used for entertainment until about 1920. The first radio station was started in Pittsburgh, PA in 1920 with commercial radios beginning sales about that time.
By 1937, radio had long been known as "radio." But if you had been around in the early 1920s, radio was called a number of things-- wireless, wireless telephone, radiophone, and radio telephone. By the mid-1920s, however, the other words had fallen out of use, and radio was in fact only called "radio." What is interesting about 1937 is that FM was beginning to get into the news. In radio's first several decades, all stations were on AM. But in the late 1930s, inventor Edwin Howard Armstrong was demonstrating his new way of broadcasting-- which was generally referred to as "static-free radio"-- since AM signals tended to pick up all kinds of interference from the atmosphere, whereas FM signals did not.
"Two-way" or "Land Mobile" radios.
Radios have to wireless sound because more radios exspeshualy in the present days are wireless they have no cord or plug for them to work you just push a button then then you have sound.
If you think about it all radios are actually wireless. Thus as the radio was invented in Victorian times - the Victorians DID have wireless radios.
A set that performs a task without being wired to something and having almost unlimited mobility, hence the name wireless. Radios used to be called a wireless set, too.
In 1940, wireless radios predominantly used electrical energy for operation. This electrical energy was typically sourced from power outlets in homes or from batteries for portable radios.
Early radios work by intinas .
it wasn't invented, because of the war
You don't, there aren't any. However some radios in the early 1950s did use both vacuum tubes and transistors. This was because early junction transistors were too slow to operate at RF so vacuum tubes were used in the RF and IF sections. These radios were called hybrid radios because they used both vacuum tubes and transistors.
The first radios as we know them started production in 1909, but really did not take off until the 1920s when NBC created one of the first public stations. (and radio units became cheap enough to be in homes around the US and Briton) But the first radios were called "Wireless Telegraphy" and was invented in 1897.

To communicate over long distance without wires, hence the term 'wireless'.
No. All wireless radios are off so services like that cant access location services which help find your ipod.
All satellite radios will have equal reception as they meet a common wireless specification.
