What was Marconi's central idea about radio waves?
I saw radio waves, akin to ripples on a pond, as a natural phenomenon that could be harnessed. My central conviction was that these invisible waves could carry information across distances without physical connection. The key was to generate them efficiently, tune receivers to pick them up selectively, and amplify weak signals. I worked tirelessly to increase the power of my transmitters and the sensitivity of my receivers, demonstrating that with the right engineering, these ethereal waves could bridge oceans. Distance is no barrier to human connection when we understand and apply these principles.
