In 1895 J. C. Bose gave his first public demonstration of electromagnetic waves, using them to ring a bell remotely and to explode some gunpowder. In 1896 the Daily Chronicle of England reported: "The inventor (J.C. Bose) has transmitted signals to a distance of nearly a mile and herein lies the first and obvious and exceedingly valuable application of this new theoretical marvel." Popov in Russia was doing similar experiments, but had written in December 1895 that he was still entertaining the hope of remote signalling with radio waves. The first successful wireless signalling experiment by Marconi on Salisbury Plain in England was not until May 1897.

Just shows the prejudice of some people. You cary on believing in the 'flat earth' theory.

Marcony did not transmit his message till 1897

I was always told it was Marconi.

I'm still waiting on the results of the DNA test before I say anything
but communication means signalling to me so Marconi wins

Probably Tesla.
When his patents were finally approved, he had been dead about 3 months, and the U.S. was being sued by the Marconi Corp. over infringing on their patents. Since Tesla's were of earlier date, the suit was thrown out. Most inventions of great worth do not have a point source, just a focus of credit.

Tesla I believe was granted a US patent "wireless transmission of data".
Marconi used spark gaps - and is generally thought to be the first to attempt to commercialise 'wireless'.
However for radio to be practical and commercial (more than one station operational without harmful interference) there needs to be some way to separate stations (frequency/ time/ code). The first practical systems used amplitude modulation on different centre frequencies. The invention of a.m. was by Fessenden and de Forest (inventor of the 'tube').

Marconi,

it is a matter of definition of the most significant event in the development of radio comms. Marconi is largely credited with this.

well i don't think marconi is the father of radio.
