In the modern era, radio waves control everything. From the tunes in your car driving down the road to the police radio in the car that's pulling you over for not signaling your turn. These waves are undetectable and invisible to human senses but they make up the foundation of modern technology.
While the root of modern connected technologies may be radio waves, the underlying tech that makes radios possible is a rather simple concept to understand. Any person can make a simple radio in their home for a few bucks, which is part of the reason this foundational tech dates back to 1895.

I'm so smart that I didn't even crack the morse code and I went to the comments to check what it was. Get on my level NERDS
Now that’s big brain 🧠
Me small brain
HAHA like that idea. I saw the message and immediately uncovered it. Thanks to memory XD
Small pp big brain
"all you need to build your own radio is a battery a penny and .... a radio"
Technically you only need a radio to listen
@Imight Realperson It's called learning and demonstration 🤗
He clearly said the battery and coin was a radio "transmitter". With the actual radio as a radio "reciever.
lol
I have a, "Sixty and One" Electronic Lab, From Hobby Lobby, I got it for my Birthday when I was twelve. "You can make Everything from a Burglar/Rain Alarm, Radio Station, to a AM "Powerless/Batterieless Radio receiver." It gets its energy soule from the Radio Waves floating in the air.📡📻🗼 Just like Tesla free Energy. You just need a big ANT or House Ground Wire to catch the signal, but it works. No batteries or power needed! ruclips.net/video/yUax3jK7_cg/видео.html
I can finally use my Morse code skills:
"I'm concerned"
And it was a bit harder than I thought it would be because there were no spaces between the words
so the message is "im concerned" or
Its like looking up the solution to the riddle. Dont wanna judge but i think solving it was more fun ;)

That was a cool way to end the video. My Morse code skills are rusty since I haven't used them in years when i used to be an amateur radio operator. Glad to know I can still decipher Morse LOL :-)
Good job!😉
-.-
Me: Explain it to me like I'm 9.
(Watches video)
Me: Okay now explain that to me like I'm 5.
I'm with you dude. Been far too long since physics 2 and I don't remember that stuff anymore. Never did learn Morse code.
I never could comprehend how when Morse code was used people could tell the difference in where spaces are and when it loops
It definitely takes a trained listener
Morse code is still used. Those with a short-wave radio can easily demonstrate this to themselves. It is very easy to hear most weekends, when contests are in full swing.
That’s cuz we are Gods AI and he made us in his image and Humans AI recognizes patterns too because we our making them in our image 😂

Skill issue😂
"I'm concerned" Thank you for a fun homeschool lesson! This was a great explanation, and my kids 12, 10, 8, and 6 really enjoyed the decoding!
Being a famer I have an electric fence and you could hear the ticking on my medium wave radio and much louder tick on my long wave band, it does not affect FM wave at all.
This is because the spark creates a rough amplitude spike, an fm reciever is deaf to a spike in amplitude
That's good mike, the frequency does not have any chance of getting inside the farm. Helpless radio frequency.
@@Rod-bp8ow aww poor radio :’)
that morse code translates roughly to "all hail supreme leader Kim jong un"
Are you sure? I got "Make America Great Again"? ;)

lmao
Wow I actually understood the morse code. Training was worth it
“Im concerned”!!
You forgot to talk about the filters, without filters you will hear all the channels at the same time, to avoid that you must use a band pass filter
Didn't they say supm bout resonance?
People also forget to put down that AM/FM portable radios are more reliable then electricity and internet if your cell phone don't work cause low battery or has no internet or electricity most of the modern ones can be powered by battery as well as solar power, crank, and most modern ones can charge phones act as light or even use a SOS beacon for getting attention .Good for on the go or tight situations and good way to get information quickly no matter where you are located and easier to operate. With so many different devices it makes it super easy to receive information and communication no matter where you are at and no matter what circumstance. Not only it paved way for information age but it also can save lives such as u know a pandemic ya see here.
Awesome video. Although, I'm still a little confused on how audio (or any media type) doesn't get distorted when "packaged" inside different sine wave lengths.
“comment I’m concerned below to prove your Morse code skills is what”the message said at the end
That’s because it does
I’m a beginner in this field but here’s my understanding. The radio transmitting your voice will take a certain amount of measurements as you talk. The number can depend on the type of modulation, encoding scheme ,and frequency. You can hear a dramatic change in quality as the frequency gets lower because there just not as many waves to carry your information. If you wanted something crystal clear you would need to use TCP, look up osi layer 4. To answer your question, the sine wave is technically the information. The sine wave is being interrupted to mean either a zero or one, nrz is something to look up that will help you understand. Even as the frequency changes the sine wave is still a wave that can be interpreted. Sorry for the rant drunk scrolling RUclips but if you have more questions I’m here
it is purposefully distorted in a way we can control into a format better suited for transmitting and receiving. the "distortion" is actually the encoding. when the package is received, decoding then happens and you get the original, undistorted data. also the quality of that data depends on things like noise and interference during transmission. you can think of human readable data being converted into 1s and 0s (based on an agreed/standard code between both ends) and then letting those binary values dictate the frequency or amplitudes of the transmitted waves. then those waves get turned back into 1s and 0s and then back into human readable data on the receiving end. with both ends using transducers and/or digitizers to achieve this.
It isn't. It gets decoded and in that process is where audio can be distorted.
It was really helpful. I cnnot describe my felling when i finally understood the radio's working method.
Just hats off for understandable description.
😊
Thank a lot man, you probably worked a lot to get to this professional video .
IM CONCERNED
It's fun to learn the basics first before I get licensed.
Incredible how fast radio waves travel instantly nearly at speed of light. Amazing drones can be real time flown in other side of planet. And that computer processes can computer all of that so fast as well. How do the processers computer so fast, AND how are they made or constructed to do so?
I’m no expert, but its just how fast electricity travels, which is close to the speed of light, making the computations instant. How it’s made is another story, and requires millions of small parts the size of cells that all fit together to process electricity.
No radio waves ARE light! It's the same thing! That's why it travels at the speed of light 😄
@@FAB1150 kind of..but not necessarily the same thing..light is visible a form of rf and interacts differently than other forms of rf like infrared,microwaves depending on conditions..I think 🤔..
@@michaelgaeta3151 no, it is exactly the same thing! At different frequencies they behave differently (for example, you can't see it anymore) because the amount of energy it stores changes, and at some point (for example x-rays), the waves become so small that they zip right through less dense objects, like your flesh.
@@michaelgaeta3151 nope, you're thinking of the visible part of the light spectrum
Oh my no, phones do *not* use frequency modulation! The 800 MHz band is also no longer available for phones, as the old analog AMPS band was swapped with the SMR band a while ago, and that ill-advised swap killed both 800 and 850 MHz bands. There's _some_ LTE action on the 850 MHz band, but not like there is on the new 700 MHz band that has no such baggage. Most phones use 1900 MHz and above as their primary frequencies, using sophisticated digital modulation schemes that are proprietary and varied.
watching that part with the glitch effect and the beeping morse code is actually kinda creepy if your watching this at 2 in the morning, but great video, loved it

Radio is amazing, I'm a little "concerned" how powerful it is.
I'm concerned ....that i didnt have morse code skills before this video #you did more than educate me on radios 😂😂
"A metal stick?"
Now i've heard it all.
Super great video sans the metal stick comment. 👍
I'm concerned with the fact that this video encourages children to mess with electrical gadgets without warning them of the risk. JK. I loved this video. It was really helpful. :)
There are no risks from a 9v battery
Unless you swallow it 😂
The morse code at the bottem directly translates to "COMMENTIMCONCERNEDBELOWTOPROVEYOURMORSECODESKILLS'
thank for sharing dear
and they just sussed how to send electricity through wifi

cant wait to see how that pans out, cheers great vid again mate
I feel like he would be proud. We technically use his idea of electromagnetic powering of devices with smart watches and such. And while he’d be disappointed that we don’t use it for long range electrical transfer, I bet he’d be impressed with how much info we get from it just by using so many different frequencies to transmit on different channels and then have high speed encoders and decoders to transmit large amounts of info using electricity faster than he ever could have imagined.
I'm concerned that I still remember the morse code I learned in the scouts (?)
"You're exciting electrons on the transmitter side. . . which is received as a signal. . ." Not exactly. Electrons aren't flowing between the transmitter and the receiver. Electromagnetic waves are. Electrons are only flowing through the metal conductors and metalloid semiconductors of the transmitter and receiver,.
Whatever m8
@@Whityfisks hes right tho
@@nathanbombardo I now know that.
Please do a video on explaining radio frequency channels in detail
I though the morse code would say something along the lines of 'please like and subscribe' but alas I was wrong lol 😁😸 Very interesting video nonetheless
HA, my Morse code video does that 😅
Wait, if you need frequency to distinguish one radio station from the next, how can they modulate frequency to transmit information? If I tune my radio to one frequency and the station modulates its frequency constantly to transmit information, wouldn't it constantly fall in and out of the frequency I tuned my radio to? Or do I tune my radio to a RANGE of frequencies and the modulation stays within that range?
Little late with the answer, but yes -- the modulation stays in a range.
That range is also known as bandwidth. And that bandwidth (for FM in the US) is 200kHz, or 0.2MHz around a center frequency. So, if your radio is tuned to 100.5 MHz, then the range (bandwidth) is 100.4 MHz - 100.6 MHz. That's why FM station frequencies are always 99.7, 99.9, 100.1, 100.3, 100.5, etc.
@@bagnome Ah nice, that makes sense. I have noticed this phenomenon on old radios! Thanks!
A well spent 9 minutes and 40 seconds!
Excellent information 👌
That was fun to decipher. After reading it like 2 times I feel like I got it down.
Didn't used to appreciate this topics
In elementary.
fab! i started working in radio in 2023 and started doing vids about my career!
Nice video. It answered my basic questions about radio waves. Thx
So HZ is essentially fps for sound?
As Tim Leary said, you can't advocate the telescope, you can't advocate the microscope.
Love the show. Live the dream.
What happens when the wave is larger than the antenna?
very impressive
Genius bro! Thank you from my heart!
Of course!

For everyone wondering and not wanting to do the work, the morse code at the end says:
"Comment Im concerned below to prove your morsecode skills."
I wish I could have just understand that instead of having to look up every letter in the international morse code chart xD
I really liked this! Thanks for taking the time to make !
I'm concerned.
So I had to crack the code myself.
Wonderful information and video! Well done ^-^

Wow thanks for such a valuable video sir full respect to you from India 👍🏻🇮🇳🙏🫡
I'm concerned that I spent more time deciphering the final morse code message than I did watching the video. Been meaning to learn it but having a cheat sheet is just as good if just a bit more time consuming.
You don't even need a coin and a 9 volt battery. Simply turning on a lightswitch, that is 1-2 meters away from the radio, already can be heard on a static station (the empty noise gap between radio stations).
Wonderful explanation!!!
Well, I knew S & O. I can't imagine I'll forget T, E & M. I'll need to work on the other 34 characters. lol
If different radio channels are only allowed to use a specific frequency, how is frequency modulation possible? If you change the frequency of your sine wave, shouldn't that interfere with other channels?
you are basically given a range of frequencies you can use for one channel, this range is called the bandwidth, and FM varies only within this bandwidth.
Awesome video
"these excited electrons travel through the air" WHAT THE FUCK
Amazing amazing video. Thankyou soo so much
thank you it was a good explanation
Which signal is stronger and can travel further? FM Radio signal or Cellphone 3G/4G signal?
Very nice and informative
hearing this background copyright free music gives flashbacks the many hours hearing it in some games, those of you who know, know lol
the morse code says: "COMMENT I AM CONCERNED BELOW TO PROVE YOUR MORSE CODE SKILLS"
9:15 (without reading any comment befor giving my reading) : " comment I m concerned below to prove your morse code skills "
But it should have started with _ . _ . _ (beginning of transmission) and ended by . _ . _ . (end of transmission)

So, mobile phones are technically their own Modem (MODulator/DEModulator).
Secondly, I'm sure you're aware that you could have said 680 kHz (kilohertz), as opposed to 680,000 Hz (Hertz).
I'm concerned nice ending! lol
Very clearly explained.
6:30 Tra... tra... tra... Trabant?
'I'm concerned' you didn't go into pulse width modulation enough
Don't do the coin thing, got a powerful electric shock lol, didn't think a battery like this would do that
A 9 volts battery? I usually lick the poles to test their energy, not so strong.
This doesn''t explain how the waves actually carry the sound (specific sound you're sending off with it such as music or your voice, not the electrical sound) through the air (and you don't hear it with in that air it is traveling throuhg) then it comes out some source (a radio) and you hear it
That's because they _don't_ carry sound. Rather, they carry _information._ It's up to the transmitting device to encode the information from sounds into binary strings that can be represented as AM or FM signals and them the receiving device has to translate that information back into sound waves.
I am not concerned as of now, as I don't know the Morse code. But I will be concerned, as I am interested to learn it.
It's Really nice thank you
So did you know that the fuzz from a radio comes from the big bang,well some of it but isn't that cool?
The best video, Thank you so much!

The trabant deluxe had a "RFT A341 Tournee"
Phase modulation left the chat
If we could see a radio wave, what would it look like?
They're three dimensional. Also, up and down is really back and forth (maximum to minimum energy, and back up again, and so on).
Oh, and each frequency/wavelength combination would be a color we can't even begin to imagine. Same with infrared, ultraviolet, etc.
@@valentinius62So "if" we were able to see it, it'd basically look like strong beams of light that have different colors?
@@bity-bite Probably.
I left this video with way more questions. I need to learn more. How does the encoding and decoding happen?? Brain. No. Understand. Lol
magic
does a tracking device like the one u put on keys or etc, use radio waves
So basically we "translate" the soundwaves into radiowaves which can travel much larger distances, some device can receive these radiowaves and translates them back into the soundwaves we can hear?
But what I dont understand, how exactly is the radiowave changed so that it has the information of our sounds? I mean if the frequency isnt changed, what is? I thought sounds are just "ups and downs" so how can you translate these ups and downs into radiowaves without making the radiowave going "up and down" (keeping the frequency)
Or did I get something completely wrong?
Short circuitry is magic 😁😁😁
Good video!
why did radios have such long antennas back in the day?
I'm concerned. But definitely understand radio frequency and controls better now!
