About 20 years later, John Ambrose Fleming ( scientific adviser to the Marconi Company

Marconi later transmitted the wireless signals across the Atlantic between Poldhu, Cornwall, and St. John's, Newfoundland, a distance of.

He was also consultant to the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company, Swan Company, Ferranti, Edison Telephone, and later the Edison Electric Light Company.

Marconi would later admit to Braun himself that he had " borrowed " portions of Braun's work.

Tesla also used sensitive electromagnetic receivers, that were unlike the less responsive coherers later used by Marconi and other early experimenters.

This division was privatised as Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering Ltd ( VSEL ) in 1986, later part of GEC's Marconi Marine.

The investigation is expected by Newhaven Local & Maritime Museum to include not only the tide mill, but also to record the entire East Beach site: Mills, Railway Station, Nurses Home, Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital, Newhaven Seaplane Base and the later holiday homes and the Newhaven Marconi Radio Station of 1904.

The company was later called the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company Ltd. For this reason Chelmsford is credited as the " birthplace of radio ", and this phrase can be seen on administrative signs on major roads entering the city although this statement is disputed.

After years of decline, the Marconi factory finally closed in 1992 and the site was demolished a few years later apart from the frontage on Writtle Road.

The company later moved its offices to the premises of the Marconi Company.

One month later he received a message from the Marconi spark transmitter at Poldhu in Cornwall, being sent to London, on the eve of the outbreak of World War One.

He started training to work in wireless for the Marconi Company in March 1906 in Seaforth and graduated five months later in August.

In May 1908, he was assigned to the Marconi station outside Clifden, Ireland, where he worked until 1911, when he was assigned to the and later, in early 1912, to the Oceanic.

Working for Marconi, his first sea assignment as a wireless operator was on the Haverford and later worked on the Beaverford, the LaFrance, the Lusitania, and the Anselm.

It has been claimed that Stubblefield invented the radio before either Nikola Tesla or Guglielmo Marconi, but his devices seem to have worked by audio frequency induction or, later, audio frequency earth conduction ( creating disturbances in the near-field region ) rather than by radio frequency radiation for radio transmission telecommunications.

This division was privatised as Vickers Shipbuilding and Engineering Ltd ( VSEL ) in 1986, later passing to the GEC group as part of Marconi Marine and survives to this day as part of BAE Systems ; BAE Systems Submarines.

The holding company, Associated Electrical Industries ( AEI ), later merged with GEC which exists today as Marconi Corporation plc.

Some years later he started appearing weekly with live musicians for the Merseycats charity at the Marconi club in Huyton.

Equal shares in the resulting company were then held by Finmeccanica, and GEC-Marconi ( later Marconi Electronic Systems ( MES )), a division of The General Electric Company ( GEC ).

On October 7, 2003 the UK holding company for AMS changed its registered name from Alenia Marconi Systems Limited to AMS Limited to comply with the agreements reached regarding use of the name “ Marconi ” following the sale of Marconi Electronic Systems by GEC ( later Marconi plc ).

CFCF-TV was founded by the Canadian Marconi Company owner of CFCF radio ( AM 600, later CINW on AM 940 before its closure in 2010 ; and FM 106. 5, now CKBE-FM at 92. 5 ) after several failed attempts to gain a licence, beginning in 1938, and then each year after World War II.

Following GEC's acquisition of Marconi as part of English Electric in 1968 the Marconi brand was used for its defence businesses e. g. Marconi Space & Defence Systems ( MSDS ), Marconi Underwater Systems Ltd ( MUSL ).

With the various restructurings of the GEC group and its rebranding as Marconi, a large part of the site was sold to Siemens along with the private telephone networks side of the business.

The lower level apartments of this development and the Bus Station area are sometimes called ' The Marconi Plaza ', while the upper level apartments are part of the " Kings Tower ".

In 1999 GEC-Marconi ( renamed Marconi Electronic Systems ) was sold to British Aerospace and became part of the merged company, BAE Systems.

Yarrow Shipbuilders was nationalised into British Shipbuilders by the Labour Government headed by Jim Callaghan and was subsequently privatised by Margaret Thatcher's government when the shipyard assets were purchased by GEC Marconi in 1985 ; in 1999 it became part of BAE Systems Marine.

The Italian scientist and one of the pioneers in wireless telegraphy, Guglielmo Marconi, made a radio connection between Bar and Bari on August 30, 1904, and in 1908 the first railroad in this part of the Balkans was put into operation in 1913.

* King's Building 1905-1958, home to Marconi Wireless and now part of the footprint for Chater House

The GEC acquired part of GPT ( August 1998 ) which became Marconi Communications in 1999, would be amalgamated into both Ericisson and Telent in 2005 when they acquire its parent company-Marconi Corporation plc, formed by 2003 restructuring of Marconi plc.

Following GEC's purchase VSEL became Marconi Marine ( VSEL ), part of the company's GEC-Marconi division.

When Marconi was sold to Ericsson in January 2006, telent plc retained System X and continues to support and develop it as part of its UK services business.

Other parts of Ferranti Computer Systems were acquired out of administration by GEC-Marconi, when GEC-Marconi sold on its defence related businesses to BAE Systems many of these former Ferranti entities became part of the BAE / Finmeccanica joint venture called Alenia Marconi Systems.

* Yarrow Shipbuilders-1985-sold to GEC-Marconi as Marconi Marine ( YSL ) then to BAE Systems as part of BAE Systems Marine, now BAE Systems Surface Ships

On 8 April 1919, naval Admiral W. H. G. Bullard and Captain Stanford C. Hooper met with executives of the General Electric Corporation ( GE ) and asked them to discontinue selling the company's Alexanderson alternators ( used in the high-power AM radio transmitters of that era ) to the British-owned Marconi Company, and to its subsidiary, the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America.

The incorporation of the assets of Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company of America ( including David Sarnoff ,) the Pan-American Telegraph Company, and those already controlled by the United States Navy led to a new publicly held company formed by General Electric ( which owned a controlling interest ) on 17 October 1919.
