1. Radio The Journey of radio in India

2. What is radio ? Radio is a way to send electromagnetic signals over a long distance, to deliver information from one place to another. A machine that sends radio signals is called a transmitter, while a machine that “picks up” the signals is called a receiver or antenna. A machine that does both jobs is a “transceiver”. When radio signals are sent out to many receivers at the same time, it is called a broadcast.

3. Invention Italian inventor G uglielmo M arconi first developed the idea of a radio, or wireless telegraph, in the 1890s. His ideas took shape in 1895 when he sent a wireless mores code message to a source more than a kilometre away. He continued to work on his new invention, and in 1897 he received the official British patent for the radio – which was really a wireless telegraph system at first. Guglielmo Marconi

4. Starts of 20 th century In 1900, Reginald Fessenden made a weak transmission of voice over the airwaves. In 1901, Marconi conducted the first successful transatlantic experimental radio communications. In 1907, Marconi established the first commercial transatlantic radio communications service, between chidden, Ireland and glace bay, newfoundland. Donald Manson working as an employee of the Marconi Company (England, 1906)

5. Radio in India Radio broadcasting began in India in 1922. According to an agreement on 23 July 1927, the private Indian broadcasting company ltd (IBC) was authorized to operate two radio stations: the Bombay station which began on 23 July 1927, and the Calcutta station which followed on 26 august 1927. The government owned radio station all India radio dominated broadcasting since 1936 but through privatization and deregulation has allowed commercial privately owned talk and music stations to reach large audiences.

6. The company went into liquidation on 1 march 1930. The government took over the broadcasting facilities and began the Indian state broadcasting service (ISBS) on 1 April 1930 on an experimental basis for two years, and permanently in may 1932 it then went on to become all India radio on 8 June 1936. When India attained independence, there were six radio stations within Indian territory, at Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta, madras, T iruchirapalli and L ucknow . FM broadcasting began on 23 July 1977 in Chennai, then madras .

7. Transmission C urrently, analog terrestrial radio broadcast in India is carried out in short wave(SW) (6–22 MHz), medium wave(mw) (526–1606 kHz)and frequency modulation (FM) (88–108 MHz). All India radio the public service broadcaster – has established 467 radio stations encompassing 662 radio transmitters, which include 140 mw, 48 SW, and 474 FM transmitters for providing radio broadcasting services in India. Private sector radio broadcasters transmit in FM mode only.

8. Public radio All India radio All India radio(air), officially known since 1956 as ‘ A kashvani ’ is the national public radio broadcaster of India. It was established in 1936. All India radio is the largest radio network in the world, and one of the largest broadcasting organizations in the world in terms of the number of languages broadcast and the spectrum of socio-economic and cultural diversity it serves. Air’s home service comprises 420 stations located across the country, reaching nearly 92% of the country’s area and 99.19% of the total population. AIR originates programming in 23 languages and 179 dialects.

9. Private radio Private participation wasn’t allowed until 1993 when the government experimented with a daily, two-hour slot on the FM channels in Delhi and Mumbai. In 2001 the first phase of private sector participation (FM phase i ) India's radio sector began and the government conducted open auctions r a radio licenses. Of the 108 licenses issued, only 22 became operational in 12 cities. Radio city Bangalore, which started on July 3, 2001, is India's first private FM radio station.

10. Radio city Bangalore, which started on July 3, 2001, is India's first private FM radio station. The second development phase of radio privatization was in 2005( F m phase ii) with 338 FM slots up for auction. 245 frequencies were taken up in the auction and the government earned US$295 million in one-time entry fees. In 2019 the ministry of information and broadcasting (India) had sought telecom regulatory authority of India's recommendation on reserve prices for auctions of radio frequencies in 283 cities to expand private FM radio across the country.

11. This includes 23 existing cities where the government has auctioned private FM radio frequencies in the previous batches, while 260 cities will see auctions of private FM radio for the first time. In 2020 April TRAI had issued recommendations on reserve price for auction of FM radio channels under FM phase iii policy.
