Metal is the material that blocks radio waves and prevents their transmission.
Sound waves require a medium, such as air, water, or solids, for transmission. Light, radio, and infrared waves can travel through a vacuum and do not require a medium for transmission.
Devices that use radio waves for communication and transmission include smartphones, radios, televisions, Wi-Fi routers, and satellite communication systems.
Yes, lead can block radio waves because it is a dense material that can absorb and reflect electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves.
No, radio waves cannot escape a black hole because the intense gravitational pull of a black hole prevents any form of electromagnetic radiation, including radio waves, from escaping its event horizon.
GPS uses radio frequency signals in the L1 (1575.42 MHz) and L2 (1227.60 MHz) bands for its signal transmission.
Transmission refers to the process of transferring of any material. This can be the spreading of a disease (i.e. transmission of a virus) or the broadcasting of electromagnetic waves from one location to another (i.e. television or radio transmissions from a transmitter to a receiver).
radio transmission can be heard in hilly areas because of diffraction
Radio and television waves do not travel- it is difficult to explain, as they can use radio in outer space- look at satellites and moon shots. There is someting in the Zone of Silence which effectively blocks all NORMAL radio and tv reception and transmission- the author Childress seems to imply there are some frequencies ( my guess secret) that are not effected by this weird, nature-imposed blackout of radio waves.

The Wikipedia article on radio is pretty comprehensive: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio
There are no miracles of radio. It is a form of transmission of information using the electromagnetic spectrum
The analog method of signal transmission uses radio waves to carry signals. Digital transmission involves the use of satellites to transmit signals.

Do you mean 'Who made the first radio?'? Several people were experimenting with radio transmission, among them Marconi and Hertz.
It can't. Radio transmission is inherently un-private. The only way to achieve privacy in radio communication is to encode, scramble, encrypt, etc., in a way that a random listener can't decode.
In radio we would have: Phone ( voice and music)- AM, FM, Citizens Band, SSB (Single side band)- then CW ( continuous wave) for code transmission, such things as Facsimile, Telex over radio ( Radio-teletype). which are entirely machine-generated like a typewriter keyboard, and so on... Television is a form of transmission mode- but is not radio but well, Video.
