Electric Magnetism predicted the existence of electromagnetic waves. This includes radio waves. Maxwell developed a series of equations entitled Maxwell’s Equations. The equations he came up with remain the basis of radio design. • Between 1838 and 1842, Joseph Henry was the first to produce high frequency electrical oscillations. • All of this adds up the the first audio transmission was made by Reginald A. Fessenden . • Soon after, Guglielmo Marconi creates the very first radio transmission.
