Witness how the radio made waves during World War II by enabling instant communications between the command post and the men in action!
With the introduction of technologically advanced weapons and equipment in war - such as the swift battle tanks, powerful naval ships and speedy warplanes - the availability of quick and accurate communication became absolutely essential during World War II. Marconi's 1895 invention, the radio, had undergone considerable refinement by the time the war began and it wasn't long before the radio became an essential part of the war effort.
By 1941, low powered, medium and high frequency radios were widely fitted for voice communications within task groups and convoys. VHF voice radio was slowly being adopted thanks to developments in the RAF. During the period 1943 to 1945, the most important advance in wireless communications was the strategic use of voice radio. This explosion of voice radio reduced the amount of communication passed by flag or light signals.
The portable versions of the radio seen in this DVD changed the way the Armed Forces communicated making exchange of vital information more speedy and effective than ever before.
