Lynette R. F. Cowper

"Within a few years a simple and inexpensive device, readily carried
about, will enable one to receive on land or sea the principal news, to
hear a speech, a lecture, a song or play of a musical instrument, conveyed
from any other region of the globe. The invention will also meet the
crying need for cheap transmission to great distances, more especially
over the oceans. The small working capacity of the cables and the
excessive cost of messages are now fatal impediments in the dissemination
of intelligence which can only be removed by transmission without wires."
                                                 Nikola Tesla, 1905
