Invention, and development of the invention into a practical device, are two different things. Tesla and many, many others could come up with nifty ideas and maybe even make a working prototype, but that's a far cry from developing and implementing reliable products that can be rolled out to the general public for general use. Give Edison some credit for not just the light bulb, but for making practical the whole electrical distribution system behind it that wound up illuminating the cities of the world...
Did Marconi invented radio...?
TESLA'S FIRST VIABLE RADIO CIRCUIT IN 1893
UPHELD BY THE SUPREME COURT
Tesla's four-tuned circuits (two on the receiving side and two on the transmitting side, secured by U.S. patents #645,576 and #649,621) were the basis of the U.S. Supreme Court decision (Case #369 decided June 21, 1943) to overturn Marconi's basic patent on the invention of radio.
Marconi merely demonstrated Tesla's invention, but the gullible media and the greedy industry that followed continue to perpetuate a myth that Marconi invented radio. Who do you believe has more credibility...industries promoting their own businesses, or the U.S. Supreme Court?
Marconi's two-tuned circuit system was the same as that advanced by Heinrich Hertz and was no more a viable system of radio than that advanced by Mahlon Loomis in 1872...long before Hertz or Tesla. In one of my pages I tell the complete story in legal and technical terms. Any unbiased reader should understand that it was Maxwell, Hertz, and Tesla who were the actual pioneers of radio. Marconi only helped develop radio after it was invented. Mr. Edison and Mr. Marconi's popularity in history is just another example of historians promoting entrepreneurs and technologists over the actual discoverers.
