By golly cuhulin, old Stubblefield deserves a lot of credit, but I vote
for
Mahlon Loomis - done did it in 1865

See URL: http://members.aol.com/jeff560/loomis.html

I suppose it's a matter of semantics, but I don't see how radio can exist
without radio waves. Neither Loomis nor Stubblefield were generating radio
waves. Conduction, induction and capacitive coupling can be used for
communication, but none of them are radio. Radio uses nothing developed by
Loomis or Stubblefield. Today's radio is a direct decendant of Maxwell's
electromagnetic theories and Hertz's experimental confirmation.
