On This Day 104 Years Ago...

The first radio signal to cross the Atlantic was picked up near St. John's Newfoundland, by inventor Guglielmo Marconi.

And what a great medium radio has become…”You’re listening to Hardcore Conservative Talk Radio…101.1 on your FM dial.”

Haha, remember those old "An important part of our heritage" commercials that acted that out.

I love the radio, I get to hear tons of super annoying ads and the same songs on a loop every hour. Thanks alot Marconi or whatever your name is. Though I guess walki talki's are pretty cool.

Ya man...I remember those well. I think they were on TV, too...they might still be, actually. I always like the one about Laura Secord.
