No. The first experimental "signal" hadn't yet been detected across a Physics laboratory
at that time.
Marconi demonstrated the first practical radio signaling system in 1895.
Amateur ('ham') radio hobyists and experimenters were active in the 1900s.
By the time of the Titanic's maiden voyage in 1912, ships carried radio and were in touch
with other ships and with land-based terminals.
The first broadcasts intended for listeners in their homes took place in the early 1920s.

∙ 13y agoNo. Radios were not invented until the early 20th century.
Actually, there were a few, but they were quite useless and
attracted no attention, as there was no place to plug them in.
And no transmitters to listen to either.

∙ 13y agoNo. There were very few of them who owned receiving sets at that time, and
those who did had no place to plug them in. **
But seriously, folks, the German physicist Heinrich Hertz was the first scientist
on record to manage the astonishing accomplishment of generating electrical
(radio) waves on one side of his laboratory and detecting them on the other
side of the room, without any wires. He did that in 1888.
Marconi and others took up experimenting with the idea after Hertz's death.
Marconi moved his experiments outside his laboratory in 1895, and was able to
telegraph between Cape Cod and England shortly after 1900.
It was then picked up by hobbyists, tinkerers, and technically inclined nerds all
over the world, who eventually began demonstrating their accomplishments by
communicating with each other.
The first regularly scheduled radio station (KDKA in Pittsburgh) appeared in 1920.
