Science report on the creation of a small transistor radio

Report 1: The Radio Aims and Objectives: To aid in my understanding of radio technology I intend to construct a fully functional radio from the electrical components given to me, using tools provided by the university. Background Research: The development of wireless transmission started around the turn of the 20th Century. One of the most pioneering scientists in this field was Guglielmo Marconi. Who achieved the first transatlantic radiotelegraph in 1902. The invention of the vacuum tube …

…just a few minutes with the correct components.
