Trumpy Fund (historical equipments)
|
In 2008 a donation from the Trumpy family (see Trumpy Fund) allowed the Marconi Museum to enrich its collection with some historical equipments, in particular a Marconifono Juvenis, a medium/long wave radio receiver and a radiotelegraphic station for demonstrations.

When Marconi grounded his transmitter and then grounded his receiver and let the spark go then the world had wireless telegraphy, and no one had ever done that before. If we must call our aerial waves by some name let us not call them Hertzian waves, but Marconi waves. They are his. |
