Radio was not discovered by any single individual, but in its place was a culmination of several researchers’ investigation, each of whom opened up a different region of electromagnetic waves and radio emissions during the late 1800s and early 1900s. The recognition of devising the radio goes to several scientists. Some of the researchers in the list comprise Sir Oliver Lodge, Nikola Tesla, Mahlon Loomis, Guglielmo Marconi, Alexander Popov, Heinrich Hertz, Reginald Fessenden, Amos Dolbear, Nathan Stubblefield and James Clerk Maxwell.
