FM broadcasting

started off being good for the development of broadcasting and broadcast technology. Leading the discussion was Dr. Lee de Forest, who media historians described as inventive, competitive, and ambitious starting from childhood. If it weren’t for his competitive nature and having people to compete with, i.e. Fessenden and Armstrong, he would not have continued his research and experiments into the development of broadcasting. Edwin Howard Armstrong was described as happy, curious, and adventurous in his youth. He was always questioning how theories and gadgets worked, which caused him to explore the true functionality of de Forest’s invention, the Audion. David Sarnoff was not…

All frequency bands between 9 kHz and 275 GHz are strategically allocated to avoid interference with sensitive systems such as aircraft navigation, radio astronomy and search and rescue operations. For example, 88 – 108 MHz is used to broadcast FM radio to your car and 824-849 MHz is reserved for cell phones. 5.8 and 2.4 GHz are the two most common frequency bands available to non-military drone pilots. These regulations are enforced by the FCC and the National Telecommunications and Information…

access to cable, satellite and internet. If you were to drive through these areas a generation ago, it would feel like a trip to different nation in a different time. People living in these areas were exposed to broadcast media far less than the people from the urban areas, and people from rural areas did not really take part in the shared culture. But due to the radio the situation completely changed. The Radio connected rural America to urban America in this culture of pre TV broadcast, this…

In 1970, the FCC adopted its prohibition of cross-media ownership between FM radio stations and television stations within the same market. The FCC under the Nixon Administration prohibited newspaper cross ownership of radio or television stations (Yanich, 2014). When the Commission adopted the rule, it grandfathered newspaper/broadcast combinations in many markets, forcing dispossession only in highly concentrated markets. As a result, approximately seventy grandfathered newspaper/broadcast…

the 1800’s which lead to the radio telegraph which was used in the last 1800’s and early 1900’s primarily for military communication. The first speech over radio waves was transmitted in 1915 across the United States. The first FM radio was created in 1933 which helped improve the technology and sound quality of the radio. Finally in 1965 the first antenna FM system was created. When the modern radio before internet was created it drastically changed some aspects in people lives. The campaign…

But full-scale commercial television broadcasting did not begin in the United States until 1947. Kennedy was thrust into the national spotlight when he was selected to give the nomination speech for candidate Adlai Stevenson at the 1956 Democratic Convention. He and his writing partner Ted Sorensen threw out the suggested, cliché-ridden remarks, instead formulating a speech that foregrounded the themes that Kennedy would develop over the next eight years. He urged the party to unite around “the…

"And for you, Miss Deluise?" the genie asked, finally reaching me. "I wish for unlimited wishes!" I exclaimed, the words slipping from my mouth as the laughs tumbled out of those I called my companions. "Jamie, you can 't wish for that! There are rules!" Paul insisted, his glasses almost falling off as his head shook violently. All of them looked at me with pure superiority, as I apparently did not even know the rule. "No, a wish is a wish. As you wished, Miss Deluise. Unlimited wishes," the…

The Monkey’s Paw: Who’s to Blame The Monkey’s Paw is a fairytale about a monkey’s paw that can grant three wishes to three people. It is tragedy that a young man, Herbert has lost his life after his dad, Mr. White grants a wish for 200 pounds. Moreover, I believe Mr. White, who insists keeping the monkey’s paw, ignores the warnings from the Sergeant and behave in a greedy manner are the three reasons to explain why he is to be blamed. First of all, I blame Mr White for the death of Herbert…

For instance, the comedians George Burns and Gracie Allen, the soap opera The Guiding Light, the situation comedy Father Knows Best, the police drama Dragnet, and the western Gunsmoke. Others, however, disappeared from the airways. Live big bands were scraped in favor of recorded rock and roll, which was played on local programs by voluble and irrelevant disc jockeys. By the mid-1950s American radio had moved beyond its Golden Age to modern formats such as “Top 40” and “alternative” or…

the time and fuelled Hauraki Radio to have a motive to be a private station. They decided that they no longer wanted to be trapped by only listening to certain political viewpoints and went into the Hauraki Golf to broadcast a private radio station despite it being against the law (Cocker, 1992). Hauraki Radio helped lead more people wanting to have a more successful public sphere and voice their opinions; hence a law has been passed to allow separate radio stations (Cocker, 1992). As part of…
