    Good concise documentary. Being a radio collector and historian all my life, I find it interesting the slow evolution of today's daily routine due to radio entering the home. In the 1920's and '30's people still did not live by the concept of coming home at the end of the day and plopping down to an entertainment source. That idea and possibility of having "leisure time" did not really begin until the era of suburbia in the post-WWII years. It was the being of society more or less isolating themselves and sitting in front of the TV in their spare time. That has continued today in a most severe way with the Net and Smartphones.

    My father was a Radio Repairman , when he got drafted into the navy , in WW2. After WW2 , he became a Radio and TV Repairman. In 1963 , he became an Insterment and Control Technician , at Inland Steel. Now , the electronics field is drying up. Still demand for Electricians though.

    KDKA has competition in their claim for the first public broadcast. CFCF Montreal, Canada was broadcasting from May 20th & 21st 1920. Among those who know CFCF was first to broadcast to a public audience. This is months before November 2nd 1920.

    One question I would have is what about households that didn't yet have electricity in the 20's? Some places in the southern U.S. didn't have electricity until the late 30's. So they wouldn't be able to listen to radio? I suppose it could possibly have run on batteries but let's face it, how long would batteries last?

      Battery powered radios were very popular. They had substantial dry cell and wet cell batteries for different circuits. These soon became an essential appliance for rural farmers to obtain the latest weather and farm market price reports.

    So weird to think how radio was all people had for entertainment until the 1950s, and now look at all the entertainment we have.

    • @maryrafuse3851
      @maryrafuse3851 2 года назад +2

      Yes but Radio used the human mind to create suspense and created word pictures. You need to read Marshall McLuhan to understand the true power of radio to entertain and inform.

    Don't forget about CFCF Montreal. In Canada we also had Canadian National Railway Radio Stations before the advent of the other private stations and the CBC. Radio evolved in so many interesting ways across North America and it is important to contrast both differences and similarities.
