1920s Radio Show

In 1895 Guglielmo Marconi invented a sound transmitter that was the basis for the radio. Called a "wireless" because it transmitted messages without using wires, the radio provided Americans with hours of news and entertainment. Remember, televisions were not in American homes yet. In the fall of 1920, The Westinghouse Company made home receivers and sold them in quantities.
The radio soon changed the way Americans lived. No matter where you lived in the United States, you listened to the same programs. This drew Americans closer.
