Hello, My name is Benji Mallicoat, I am a journalism student at San
Jose State University.  I am writing a research paper on the origins of
radio in the United States.  The focus of the paper is specifically
regarding the locations of the first radio stations.  Any information
you can give me will be extremely helpful, and greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Benji Mallicoat

Hi Benji.
I dont really think I can be of much help but you could try dropping a line
to Bernard Wichert in Germany ( in English is ok for him ! ) at :
b_wich...@gmx.de
He has a large knowledge of radio so might be able to help.
In the early days, some US stations in the 1920's occasionally relayed BBC
programmes from London.
The BBC Written Archives might be able to help you with copies of early
documents. Write to:
julie.snell...@bbc.co.uk

Please mention my name if you do write to these two people !

I'd be interested to know where you got my e-mail address from. I dont know
the website at all. Can you send me some more info on it ?
Best Wishes from Scotland.
Graeme.

Benji,

Leonard Maltin wrote a book called "Great American Broadcast,  A Celebration
Of Radio's Golden Age"  by Nal Books New American Library.  He gives a short
Intro into the early days of radio.  If you cannot get this book I might be
able to type it out for you the basic parts you are looking for.
