28. Article: AM radio
- en2.wikipedia.org
- AM radio.
- AM radio is radio broadcasting using amplitude modulation. This was the dominant system of radio in the first two thirds of the 20th century, and remains important today. ...
- AM radio technology is simpler than other types of radio, such as FM radio and DAB. An AM receiver detects the power of the radio wave, and amplifies changes in the power measurement to drive a speaker or earphones. The earliest crystal radio receivers used this principle. ...
- AM radio was used for small scale voice and music broadcasts before World War I. The great increase in the use of AM radio came the following decade. The first commercial radio services began on AM in the 1920s. Radio programming boomed during the "Golden Age of Radio. ...
- AM Radio is broadcast in frequency bands ranging from 530 to 1700 kHz: .
- Medium wave is by far the most used for commercial radio broadcasting; this is the "AM radio" that most people are familiar with. ...
- For the long and medium wave bands, the wavelength is long enough that the wave diffracts around the curve of the Earth by ground wave propagation, giving AM radio, in particular long wave and medium wave at night, a long range. ...
- Short wave is used by radio services intended to be heard great distances away from the transmitting station; the far range of short wave broadcasts comes at the expense of lower audio fidelity. ...
- Frequencies between the broadcast bands are used for other forms of radio communication, such as baby monitors, walkie talkies, cordless telephones, radio control, amateur radio etc. ...

- en.wikipedia.org
- BBC Radio 2.
- Radio 2 is one of the BBC's national radio stations. It broadcasts throughout the UK on FM radio between 88 and 91 MHz. Radio 2's programmes are also relayed by Sky Television, Cable TV, Freeview and the web. ...
- It is the most listened to radio station in the UK, with its schedule filled with top name presenters like Terry Wogan, Steve Wright, Jonathan Ross and Michael Parkinson. ... Whilst being adult orientated, it does not broadcast complete works of classical music, the domain of Radio 3, or offer in depth discussion, or drama, the job of Radio 4. ... The station does offer many musical documentaries and celebrity interviews and, up until the advent of Radio 5 Live, was the BBC's main radio outlet for sports coverage. (Radio 5 - before becoming Radio Five Live - was originally created by splitting off Radio 2's mediumwave frequencies, leaving Radio 2 on FM only. ...

- Radio drama.
- A radio drama or radio play is a play to listen to (i. ... with sound only), for radio broadcasting. ...
- Probably the two most famous radio dramas are Under Milk Wood, a 'Play for Voices' by Dylan Thomas, and (in the US) Orson Welles's version of The War of the Worlds, originally a book by H. ...
- Radio drama is still popular-much more popular than televisual plays. ... Many film, stage and TV writers got their start in radio drama, including Tom Stoppard and Caryl Churchill. Broadcasters that produce radio drama often require a large number of scripts, since they cannot be reused in the way that a stage play can. The relatively low cost of producing a radio play enables them to take a chance with works by unknown writers. Radio is a good training medium for drama writers as the words written form a much greater part of the finished product; bad lines cannot be obscured with 'stage business'. ...
- The lack of visuals also enable fantastical settings and effects to be used in radio plays where the cost would be prohibitive in a visual medium. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy was first produced as radio drama, and was not translated to television until much later, when its popularity would ensure an appropriate return for the high cost of the futuristic setting. ...
- Radio plays often include the work of Shakespeare and other playwrights. ...
- Radio dramas can be regularly heard on the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, Radio 1, and the British Broadcasting Corporation, Radio 4 and Radio 3. ...

- Web radio.
- (Redirected from Internet radio) .
- The term Web radio refers to a radio re-broadcasting service one can receive via the Internet. Because the radio signal is relayed over the Internet through the World Wide Web, it is possible to access the stations from anywhere in the world—for example, to listen to an Australian radio station from Europe or America. This makes it a popular service for expatriates and for people who have 'niche' interests that may not be adequately catered for by their local radio stations (e. ... Some of the web radio services available via the Internet offer news, sports, talkback, and various genres of music—everything that is on the radio station being re-broadcast. ...
- Not every Web "radio station" has a corresponding traditional radio station. Many web radio stations are completely independent from traditional ("terrestrial") radio stations and broadcast only on the Internet. ...
- One of the most common ways to distribute Web radio is via streaming MP3 technology, which uses the well-known MP3 music format. ... Therefore, streaming MP3 radio has about a 2 second lag time. ...
- Two of the most popular Web radio networks are Live365 and Shoutcast. ... Collectively, these Web radio servers list thousands of Internet radio stations covering an ever-expanding variety of genres. ...
- There are also a small number of web radio programs that allow users to rate the songs they are listening to. This allows a user's music listening choices to be correlated against those of others, as with the programs iRATE radio and Last. ...
- The first Internet "radio station", Internet Talk Radio, was developed by Carl Malumud in 1993. ... In February, 1995, the first full-time, Internet-only radio station, Radio HK, began broadcasting the music of independent bands. Radio HK was created by Norman Hajjar and the Hajjar/Kaufman New Media Lab, an advertising agency in Marina del Rey, California. ... Later, Radio HK converted to one of the original RealAudio servers. Today, Internet radio stations such as VoyagerRadio utilize the technologies of web services like Live365 to webcast 24 hours a day. ...

- Radio station.
- A radio station is a site configured for broadcasting sound. Traditionally, radio stations have broadcast through the air via radio waves, a form of electromagnetic radiation, but today many stations broadcast via cable, local wire networks, or the Internet as well or instead of atmospheric broadcasting. Often stations are linked in radio networks. ...
- KDKA AM of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (owned by Westinghouse) started broadcasting as the first commercial radio station on November 2, 1920. ...

38. Article: Old-time radio
- www.wikipedia.org
- Old-time radio.
- Old-Time Radio (OTR) or The Golden Age of Radio is a term used to refer to radio programs that were broadcast during the 1920s through the late 1950s (with some outlying programs produced earlier and later) in the United States, as well as the United Kingdom and Canada and some other countries. ... Also known as: "radio nostalgia", "golden age radio", "silver age radio" etc. ...
- Although American radio now broadcasts very little radio drama, radio comedy, mystery stories, and adventures these genres continue at full strength on British and Irish stations. ...
- Before the widespread adoption of television, radio was the most popular home entertainment system across the United States. Initially, radio was regarded as a "low" medium and not well respected by American media corporations. With the rise of the movie industry, America's appetite for mass entertainment grew, and soon the breeding ground of Vaudeville was serving radio as well as movies. ...
- Early radio shows reflected Vaudeville origins and usually featured variety shows with music, slapstick or ethnic humor, and often suggestive situations. ... By the mid-1930s radio featured all the genres popular in other forms of American entertainment: comedy, drama, horror, mystery, romance, music, and so on. ...
- Among the best-known of the early radio performers were comedians: Jack Benny, Burns and Allen, Amos and Andy, Abbott and Costello, and Fibber McGee and Molly. The Lux Radio Theater included adaptations of Hollywood movies, performed before a live audience, often with the same stars that appeared in the original movies. ...
- The best known writers and directors during the Golden Age of Radio included Norman Corwin and Orson Welles. ...
- Old-time radio survives largely because the Armed Forces Radio Service often requested disk transcriptions to be sent to "our forces overseas," and transcription disks were also distributed to many stations that broadcast in different time zones. ...
- Old-time radio is fondly remembered by most Americans of the right age for at least a few trademark sounds, phrases and events: the famous broadcast of War of the Worlds by Orson Welles' Mercury Theater on the Air, which caused a panic in New York City; the "creaking door" which opened each episode of Inner Sanctum; Jack Benny's famous call for "Rochester" (and the famous answers of Eddie Anderson, as much a star of the program as Benny himself); the clipped speech of Jack Webb on Dragnet; the call of the Lone Ranger: "Hi-Yo, Silver!"; the cackle of The Shadow: "Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows. ...

40. Article: Karl Guthe Jansky
- en.wikipedia.org
- Karl Guthe Jansky (October 22, 1905 - February 14, 1950), was the American physicist and radio engineer who in 1932 discovered that the Milky Way galaxy emanates radio waves; he did not follow up his discovery, but it marked the birth of radio astronomy. ...
- Bell Labs wanted to investigate using "short waves" (wavelengths of about 10-20 meters) for transatlantic radio telephone service. Jansky was assigned the job of investigating the sources of static that might interfere with radio voice transmissions. ...
- He built an antenna designed to receive radio waves at a frequency of 20. ... By rotating the antenna, one could find what the direction was to any radio signal. ...
- Jansky wanted to follow up on this discovery and investigate the radio waves from the Milky Way Galaxy in more detail. ... But Bell Labs had the answer they wanted about static: the static was not a problem for transatlantic radio communication. Jansky was assigned to another project and did no more radio astronomy. ...
- Two men who learned of Jansky's discovery in 1933 were of great influence on the later development of the new study of radio astronomy: one was Grote Reber, who singlehandedly built a radio telescope in his back yard in 1937 and did the first systematic survey of radio waves from the sky. The second was John Kraus, who, after World War II, started a radio observatory at Ohio State University and wrote a textbook on radio astronomy, which is still the "bible" for radio astronomers. ...
- In honor to Jansky, the unit used by radio astronomers for the strength (or flux density) of radio sources is the jansky (symbolic form, Jy). ...

- Radio Times is the BBC's weekly television and radio programme listings magazine. It was founded in 1923, and originally carried details of BBC radio programmes in response to a newspaper boycott of radio listings. ...
- Until the 1980s and deregulation, the Radio Times only carried listings for BBC channels and its ITV-published rival, the TV Times, only carried ITV and Channel Four listings. ... However, the magazine still lives up to its name by being the most comprehensive source of UK radio listings in print. ...

43. Article: Edwin Armstrong
- en.wikipedia.org
- Edwin Armstrong was one of the most prolific inventors of the radio era, with a vision that was ahead of his time. ...
- Armstrong was the inventor of FM radio. ...
- Rather than varying the amplitude of a radio wave to create sound, Armstrong's method used varying the frequency of the wave instead. Significantly, FM radio receivers proved to generate a much clearer sound, free of static, than the AM radio dominant at the time. ...
- In proving the utility of FM technology, Armstrong successfully lobbied the FCC to create an FM radio band, between 42 and 49 MHz. ...
- In the early 1940s, shortly before and during World War II, Armstong then helped to market a small number of high powered FM radio stations in the New England states, known as the Yankee Network. Armstrong had begun on a journey to convince America that FM radio was superior to AM, and, he hoped, to collect patent royalties on every radio sold with FM technology. ...
- By June of 1945, the Radio Corporation of America, RCA had pushed the FCC hard on the allocation of electromagnetic frequencies for the fledgling television industry. Although they denied wrongdoing, David Sarnoff and RCA managed to get the FCC to move the FM radio spectrum from (42 to 49 MHz), to (88 to 108 MHz), while getting new television channels allocated in the 40-Megahertz range. ...
- Coincidentally or otherwise, this rendered all Armstrong-era FM sets useless overnight, while helping protect RCA's strong AM radio stronghold. Armstrong's radio network did not survive the frequency shift up into the high frequencies; some experts believe that FM technology was set back decades by the FCC's decision. ...
- In this state, Armstrong committed suicide in 1954 by jumping out of his apartment window, depressed by what he saw as the failure of his invention of FM radio. It took decades after Armstrong's death for FM radio to meet and surpass the saturation of AM, and longer still for FM radio to become profitable for its broadcasters. ...
- "Anyone who has had actual contact with the making of the inventions that built the radio art knows that these inventions have been the product of experiment and work based on physical reasoning, rather than on the mathematicians' calculations and formulae. ...
44. Article: Radio clock
- en2.wikipedia.org
- Radio clock.
- A radio clock is a clock that is synchronized by a time code transmitted by a radio transmitter connected to a time standard such as an atomic clock. ...
- Radio clocks synchronized to terrestrial time signals can usually achieve an accuracy of around 1 millisecond relative to the time standard, generally limited by uncertainties and variability in radio propagation. ...
- Time signals that can be used as references for radio clocks include: .
- the WWV, WWVB and WWVH radio stations in the United States .
- the CHU radio station in Canada .
- the DCF77 radio station in Germany .
- the MSF radio station in the United Kingdom .
- the JJY radio station in Japan .
- Time signal radio stations in general have the following attributes: .
- Loran-C time signals may also be used for radio clock synchronization, by augmenting their highly accurate frequency transmissions with external measurements of the offsets of LORAN navigation signals against time standards. ...
- Many modern radio clocks use the GPS satellite positioning system to provide more accurate time than can be obtained from these terrestrial radio stations. ... Because they compute the time and position simultaneously from readings from several sources, GPS clocks can automatically compensate for line-of-sight delay and many radio propagation defects, and can achieve sub-microsecond accuracy under ideal conditions. ...

47. Article: BBC Radio 1
- en.wikipedia.org
- BBC Radio 1.
- BBC Radio 1 is a British radio station, specialising in popular music aimed at a young audience (children, teenagers and young adults). Radio 1 was launched on September 30, 1967 as a direct response to the popularity of the illegal pirate radio stations such as Radio Caroline. ...
- The first record played on Radio 1 was Flowers in the Rain by The Move. The breakfast programme remains the most prized slot in the Radio 1 schedules, with every change of presenter exciting considerable media interest. ...
- Radio 1 is notable for the range of music it plays. While most commercial stations concentrate on a particular theme, such as 1980s music or 'classic rock', Radio 1 plays a diverse mix of current songs, including independent/alternative, rock, house/electronica and rap. ...
- Due to restrictions on the amount of commercial music that can be played on radio in the UK (the so-called "needle time" limitation) the station has recorded a great many live performances and studio sessions over the years, many of which have subsequently (and perhaps ironically) found their way onto commercially-available LPs and CDs. ...
- Radio 1 initially broadcast on mediumwave only. In the 1970s and early 1980s it was allowed to take over Radio 2's FM transmitters for a few hours per week. ...
- For the older listener (above the age of 25), Radio 2 has largely taken over in recent years the type of demographic and style that Radio 1 had up until the early 1990s. ...

49. Article: Radio control
- en.wikipedia.org
- Radio control.
- Radio control is the use of radio signals to remotely control another device. ...
- Radio control was origially developed during World War II, primarily by the Germans who used it in a number of missile projects. Their main effort was the development of radio controlled missiles and glide bombs for use against shipping, a target that is otherwise both difficult and dangerous to attack. However by the end of the war the Luftwaffe was having similar problems attacking allied bombers, and developed a number of radio controlled anti-aircraft missiles, none of which saw service. ...
- The effectiveness of their systems was greatly reduced by British efforts to jam their radio signals. After initial overwhelming successes, the British launched a number of commando raids to collect the missile radio sets. ...
- Both the British and US also developed radio control systems for similar tasks, in order to avoid the huge anti-aircraft batteries set up around German targets. ...
- Radio control systems of this era were generally mechanical in nature. A small radio receiver was placed in the missile, the signal from the controller (transmitter) was "played" into a small speaker. ...
- These systems were widely used until the 1960s, when the increasing use of solid state systems greatly simplified radio control. ...
- Typical radio control systems for model aircraft employ pulse width modulation, pulse position modulation, and actuate the various control surfaces using servos. ...
- Remote control military applications are typically not radio control in the direct sense, but take the form of instructions sent to a completely autonomic, computerized automatic pilot. ...
- Today radio control is used almost entirely by hobbyists. ...
