What was the first radio station made a broadcast in 1922?
If you are asking about the United States, the year was not 1922. It was actually 1920. Many sources say the first station was KDKA in Pittsburgh, but that is not entirely accurate. The first American station to keep a regular schedule and be heard by a local audience was probably 8MK (today WWJ) in Detroit, which went on the air in August 1920. KDKA has spread the story that it was the first "licensed commercial station" but there was no such thing as a commercial license until mid-September 1921, and WBZ (then in Springfield MA) got the first of those. Bottom line-- both 8MK and KDKA were pioneering stations in 1920, but 8MK took to the air more than three months before KDKA did. As for 1922, it was the year of the "radio craze" -- in 1921 there were perhaps 20 stations in operation, but by mid-1922, radio's popularity had exploded, and several hundred stations went on the air.
