Guglielmo Marconi<\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Marconi<\/a><\/strong> made the first demonstration of his system for the British government in July 1896. A further series of demonstrations for the British followed, and, by March 1897, Marconi had transmitted Morse code signals over a distance of about 6 kilometres (3.7\u00a0mi) across\u00a0Salisbury Plain. On 13 May 1897, Marconi sent the first ever wireless communication over open sea \u2013 a message was transmitted over the\u00a0Bristol Channel\u00a0from\u00a0Flat Holm\u00a0Island to\u00a0Lavernock Point\u00a0in Penarth, a distance of 6 kilometres (3.7\u00a0mi). The message read “Are you ready”. The transmitting equipment was almost immediately relocated to\u00a0Brean Down Fort\u00a0on the Somerset coast, stretching the range to 16 kilometres (9.9\u00a0mi).”<\/p>\n
