-Caveat Lector-
Let's clear this up once and for all. Marconi stole the patents,
(resubmitted Tesla's patents after implimentation as his own). In 1943
after Tesla's death "Marconi's patents" were reverted, and Tesla's patents
were acknowledged. This is common knowledge to electrical engineers, and
patent historians.
Marconi sought to monoplize Tesla's technology. He almost suceeded with
the founding of RCA which was founded exclusively to "generate revenues from
patent royalties." This was not the first or last time Tesla's technology
was appropriated. Tesla, and John Westinghouse establiched the first AC
powered central power station using his famous poly phased alternating
current technology. Elihu Houston was using Tesla's technology in his
frim, (without royalty consideration), which he sold out to Edison who with
JP Morgan formed GE (General Electric). Study your history, the
foundation for all the energy monopolies, (yes communication is a form of
energy), were laid our about a hundred years ago.
The tradegy of Tesla, who was a naturalized American citizen is that his so
called benefactors sought at every turn to manipulate the current
opportunities, and his technology to their exclusive advantage. Caveat
inventor.
