1903: THE MARCONIGRAM
THIS IS THE STUFF HISTORIANS BOTH LOCAL AND NATIONAL LOVE TO UNCOVER. IMAGINE THE EXCITEMENT BACK THERE AS THE 20TH CENTURY BEGAN TO BRING FORTH UNHEARD OF MARVELS OF TECHNOLOGY! WHO COULD HAVE KNOWN BACK THEN THAT BY THE END OF THE CENTURY WE WOULD HAVE BROUGHT COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY TO SUCH UNBELIEVABL HEIGHTS.
I am the Hamilton Township Historian at the Hamilton Township Public Library Local History Collection. I served in "G-2;" the U.S. Army Security Agency(ASA) with a "Top Secret Codeword" ("Crypto")military clearance. I have been married 60 years in April of 2014 to Judy Britton, my class of 1951 Hamilton High school sweetheart. We have 3 children and 9 grandchildren, and one great granddaughter. I have been a member of the amateur radio community since 1975 with the call sign WA2RVU. If the good Lord wills it, I will be logging local history when I reach the golden age of 100!
