The radio is one of the most emblematic everyday household items that contributed to developing and changing language and communications in the 20th century. Radios transmitted music but above all became a precious way of spreading mass information. The first remote transmission by electromagnetic waves is attributed to Guglielmo Marconi in 1895. It was just a simple sequence of Morse telegraphic signals, but it was the spark that began radiophonic communications. “Imca” radio with gramophone.
