Wiki says “Guglielmo Marconi was an Italian inventor, known as the father of long distance radio transmission and for his development of Marconi’s law and a radio telegraph system.”
It wasn’t long after that that they invented TV, and I helped launched “Good Morning Marconi.” Good Times.
Every year the radio types hand out Marconi Awards to stations and personalities. It’s considered the absolute highest award in the biz. WZPL’s Dave Smiley is up for one this year! Congrats David–you are gonna clean “Cornbread’s” clock.
