What is the difference between a newspaper and a radio?
A newspaper is a printed publication that provides news and information in written format, while radio is a broadcast medium that delivers news and entertainment through audio transmissions. Newspapers can be read at any time, while radio broadcasts are heard in real-time.
The industry bible, "Talkers Magazine" ranked Rush Limbaugh as the undisputed greatest radio talk show host of all time. He has maintained the highest Nielsen ratings in the country for over 20 straight years. Coming in at #2 was Howard Stern.
Was the 1927 Lindbergh flight possibly a newspaper hoax with radio back-up?
No. Lots of people saw Charles Lindbergh get in his aircraft. But even before he did, several other fliers, including a woman, had tried and failed to make a transatlantic flight. Thus, there was a lot of interest in seeing if somebody would finally be able to succeed. And Lindbergh did.
Because there was so much media interest, every detail was transcribed or reported. The departure time was logged, and the pilot took the plane up to Newfoundland before heading to the east out over the open ocean. Later, the plane was spotted over the Irish coast "too soon" after the flight began for Lindbergh to have gotten there any other way than flying the Spirit of St. Louis across the pond. And he navigated to Paris after reaching the British Isles without landing anywhere else. Over 100,000 people were on hand at the airfield of the City of Lights to see Lindbergh set the Spirit down after completing his historic flight. Keep in mind also that in 1927, for the first time, there were national radio networks. NBC (National Broadcasting Company) had some of their top announcers providing coverage of every detail.
A hoax? Very unlikely. They didn't have the technical wherewithal to make one happen with this event, and it was so thoroughly reported on by so many different groups-- newspaper and magazine reporters from both countries, as well as radio commentators.
How does the media influence people?
What the media does is reinforce what we already have been affected with, our surrounding cultures.
The media can also use biased views. A good example pertains to belief in God. Yahoo News posted an article under the outrageous headline, "Belief in God Boils Down to a Gut Feeling" (September 22, 2011). The article distorts research done in psychology. To understand how the research and the news media report of it can influence people, read the critique that was done on the study (see Sources and related links below).
What is the function of the radio?
In the broadest sense, the function of radio is to carry information from place
to place without the need of a medium, such as fires, drums, cannon, runners,
stagecoach, Pony Express, pigeons, wires, etc.
If you can imagine yourself in a time and place where a physical connection was
absolutely necessary in order to move even the simplest message between
locations, perhaps you can understand what a big deal the development of
radio was, and how it changed the world.
An amusing factoid:
The technology wasn't called "radio" at first. It was referred to with the quaint,
old-fashioned name of "wireless". Surprised ?
Do you underline or put quotation marks around titles of radio program titles?
According to MLA formating, titles of radio programs require either underlining or italics. Specific episodes of that radio program require quotations.

Who is gunner from Bob and Tom Show?
Dave "Gunner" Gunn used to do a lot of fill-in work for The Bob & Tom Show, for when Chick McGee would be absent from the show. To correct the original answer, which was way too brief and wrong despite its too short length, it used to be Pat Carlini that would fill in for Kristi Lee around the same time frame Gunner did the same for Chick. However, neither has done so for nearly a decade now, and currently staff members Jeff Oskay and Jessica Hooker are the general fill-ins for Chick McGee and Kristi Lee, respectively.
Gunner now does an afternoon show on the home station for The Bob & Tom Show, Q95 in Indianapolis, Indiana, as well as mornings for several of that station's sister stations, such as 93.3 The Eagle and 106.3 The Brew. Pat now dies freelance writing, as well as workshops and lectures at various businesses and universities around the Indianapolis area.

What does Ham Radio term 73 mean?
I researched this a long time ago, and this was the best answer I could find. It was the "WILD WEST". The days of Samuel Morse and the telegraph. Winchester developed a new weapon, which was probably one of the greatest inventions of the times: the Model 1873 repeating rifle. It was a grand invention, and considering the times, the news of it's inventioin spread like wildfire across the nation. Everyone, and I mean everyone wanted one. It was the talk of the town, and of the west. Telegraph operators, in place of wishing each other "a good day" or "good luck" began wishing each other a "73" And, it stuck. 73 de W5CF Rick

How do you make 433.92 MHz antenna extender?
Any piece of wire or metal is an antenna if all you need is to receive. If you are going to transmit - stick a piece of wire in your antenna jack and cut it off at 6.8 inches from the jack. For better reception and transmitting connect a 50 ohm coax with a connector that fits your radio and run it as high up (vertically) as you can. Cut 7 inches of the outer insulation from the top end of your coax and separate the outside shield wires so you can comb those down and over the insulation below the cut. When you get all the shielding wire combed out and "down" - then trim cut it at 6.8 inches long and tape it around the coax. Now cut the remaining "up" center wire lead to 6.8 inches. You now have a basic unity gain, 50 ohm impedance, vertically polarized, quarter wave antenna. Oh! Hang it up with nylon rope or hold it up with a plastic rod taped to it. Seal the insulation cut area and shield below with anything to prevent moisture intrusion. Also seal the cut top end. Coaxial cable causes loss of power - both receiving and teansmitting. Learn a bit about that too.

What is the roles of hams radio in disaster?
In times of crisis and natural disasters, amateur radio is often used as a means of emergency communication when wireline, cell phones and other conventional means of communications fail. Unlike commercial systems, Amateur radio is not as dependent on terrestrial facilities that can fail. It is dispersed throughout a community without "choke points" such as cellular telephone sites that can be overloaded. Amateur radio operators are experienced in improvising antennas and power sources and most equipment today can be powered by an automobile battery. Annual "Field Days" are held in many countries to practice these emergency improvisational skills. Amateur radio operators can use hundreds of frequencies and can quickly establish networks tying disparate agencies together to enhance interoperability. Recent examples include the 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in Manhattan, the 2003 North America blackout and Hurricane Katrina in September 2005, where amateur radio was used to coordinate disaster relief activities when other systems failed. On September 2, 2004, ham radio was used to inform weather forecasters with information on Hurricane Frances live from the Bahamas. On December 26, 2004, an earthquake and resulting tsunami across the Indian Ocean wiped out all communications with the Andaman Islands, except for a DX-pedition that provided a means to coordinate relief efforts. Recently, Amateur Radio operators in the People's Republic of China provided emergency communications after the 2008 Sichuan earthquake and US hams did similar work following Hurricane Ike. The largest disaster response by U.S. amateur radio operators was during Hurricane Katrina which first made landfall as a Category 1 hurricane went through Miami, Florida on August 25, 2005, eventually strengthening to Category 5. More than a thousand ham operators from all over the U.S. converged on the Gulf Coast in an effort to provide emergency communications assistance. Subsequent Congressional hearings highlighted the Amateur Radio response as one of the few examples of what went right in the disaster relief effort.
You're talking about circular areas.
-- The area of a circle is (pi) x (radius)2 .
-- The area of the 4-mile radius is (pi) x (4)2 = 16 pi square miles
-- The area of a circle is proportional to the square of its radius.
So the area of the 40-mile radius is (10)2 = 100 times the area of
the 4-mile radius = 1,600 pi square miles.
The larger circle has (99 times the area of the 4-mile radius) more area
than the smaller circle has.
(99) x (16 pi) = 1,584 pi = 4,976.3 square miles more than the smaller circle.
How do you add FM radio on iPod?
I assume you mean, "How do I use an iPod to listen to music on a radio via FM transmission"
Stop by your local Best Buy, Target, or if you must Walmart (Blech!)
Go to the electronics section of the store. Browse around there will be all sorts of iPod goodies you can get. Look for a radio transmitter attachment. There are two basic styles I have seen:
-iPod data plug-the transmitter plugs into the same port you use to charge the iPod (great sound, great FM range, uses the iPod battery)
-Headphone plug-the transmitter plugs into the port you would use for headphones (more flexible as you could use it with a laptop, CD player, or many other things, However, it will most likely require batteries or external power)

The car radio was invented in Chicago, Illinois, USA by Robert Galvin. He went on to found a company named for his new product: Motorola
Unofficial/undocumented Answer:
Neal Kyser McNaughten (and probably others) Although there is no documentation to prove it, my father, Neal Kyser McNaughten, born in 1911, built a radio into a Model T some time in the late 1920s. It had a paper cone and used it's own dry cell since the car had no battery. He claimed that it was particularly of interest to the young ladies...
What Best Describes longitudinal Waves?
Imagine a long spring or slinky (the toy). Now if you give a jerk to the spring from one side, while keeping the other end fixed, you will be able to see a compressions travelling from your end to the fixed end of the spring. Congrats, you just saw a longitudinal wave!
