Harte has documented the history of radio as he lived it. Research and anecdotes are combined with photographs of days gone by to present this passionate look at radio in Australia. A wealth of personal recollection, from the first long distance wireless communication in Morse Code in 1901 to the opening broadcast of Melbourne station 3LO in 1924.
