Radio Tower Road/Pioneers of Radio: Fessenden Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Chuck Walla: Hello pizzaboy2600,

The deadline set in my previous note has been reached. I see that you have not checked on your geocache and addressed the issue with it. Nor, alternatively, have you posted a note to your geocache page to tell me and others of your intention to address the issue with it.

No response tells me that you are not planning on replacing or repairing this geocache. Therefore, I am archiving it.

Please note that this geocache cannot be unarchived if you later address the issue with it. You will need to create a new geocache listing and submit it for review if you intend to keep a geocache at this location.

Geocache Description:

These caches are dedicated to the inventors of radio.

There is really no place to pull off on this road so be careful and watch your kids please the road is not a well-traveled road but it does have some traffic. Have fun and be safe. I hope the names on this list and information inspires young minds to explore and discover something new that will once again change the world.

Reginald Fessenden—this Canadian spent much of his working life in the U.S. where he developed a way to combine sound and radio carrier waves. His first effort to transmit this mixed signal— to a receiver where the carrier wave would be removed and the listener could hear the original sound— failed. However, in 1906, using Alexanderson’s Alternator, Fessenden made the first long- range transmission of voice from Brant Rock, MA.
