Dave, Rugby was indeed a massive longwave and HF station. Unfortunately, technological progress made it obsolete. It was the fourth generation of transatlantic wireless stations in the British Isles.
I would also like to suggest a book called "Signor Marconi's Magic Box" by Gavin Weightman, published by De Capo press. It is a fascinating read of the very early days of wireless. Mine is an advance
TT: Along these same lines is <200 Meters & Down> by Clinton B. DeSoto of ARRL. Written in the early 30s, I believe (can't find my copy in the shack), this is an account of the early days of wireless
Published 1936. Paperback $1.00 postpaid! Gene is right, wonderful book. My copy has no pictures. 73, Hank, W6SX Mammoth Lakes, California _______________________________________________ ____________
