A Kite Antenna Used in Early Radio Experiments This picture shows an unusual piece of radio apparatus which was used by Guglielmo Marconi during his trans-Atlantic radio tests in December J90J. The large kite which is held by G. S. Kemp, Marconi's first assistant, was employed to elevate the long receiving antenna which was used at Signal Hill, Newfoundland. The signals which were received during this experiment were sent from a station installed at Poldhu and was an event of the greatest historical importance. I56
