EME - Moonbounce Propagation
Reflecting signals from the surface of the Moon is not a normal method of radio signal propagation, but some radio amateurs use it because it presents some significant but interesting challenges.
Clear summaries & information about electronics, radio and connectivity.
Electronics Notes, now incorporating Radio-Electronics.com provides radio & electronics tutorials, information and notes covering electronics concepts, components, radio technology, manufacturing & constructional techniques, telecommunications & connectivity (mobile & wired), antenna technology & much more for those involved in electronics, radio, telecommunications and the associated industries.

Marconi's Magnetic Detector
The magnetic detector, often called Marconi's Magnetic Detector, was widely used in early wireless systems where it was far more sensitive and robust than the coherer. It performed well on ships, and was used for Marconi's first Transatlantic transmission.
