Next Meeting — December 2nd — On-Line
This month's presentation is The Invention and Early Development of the Telephone, by RaRa's President, Tim Barrett, KV2X. The early history of the telephone from invention in the 1870s through to the development of the first telephone exchanges and expansion in the early 20th century is the subject of our December presentation. Many of the same issues that made the development of radio and the Morse telegraph so interesting are here too: initial skepticism or even disbelief that it was possible, inevitable arguments over who was the actual inventor, fights over patents, chaos from multiple companies all trying to do the same thing in different ways and eventually success which brought its own challenges. Time: 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM (please allow for computer setup time) Location: Web Meeting —>> Registration: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/830629768745514509 There are only 100 available slots and the system allows overbooking, so arrive early.
