Weeks Albert
Einstein (German
pronunciation (help·info)) (March 14,
1879 &endash; April 18, 1955) was a German-born
theoretical physicist. He is widely regarded as one
of the greatest physicists of all
time.[1][2] He played a leading
role in formulating the special and general
theories of relativity; moreover, he made
significant contributions to quantum theory and
statistical mechanics. While best known for the
Theory of Relativity (and specifically mass-energy
equivalence, E=mc?), he was awarded the 1921 Nobel
Prize for Physics for his explanation of the
photoelectric effect in 1905 (his "wonderful year"
or "miraculous year") and "for his services to
Theoretical Physics". See

STORY
When Dr. L. J. Hortin, Ph.D. headlined his first of
many magazine articles in 1931, "BIRTHPLACE of
Radio" -- which featured the grandfather of Troy
Cory-Stubblefield, the inventor and patent owner of
the Wireless Telephone -- how did Hortin know
in 1930, that Nathan B. Stubblefield's grandson
would be sitting next to him some sixty years
later, in 1991, at Murray State University -
MSU.
The 1991 -- MSU-NBS100
sumit was taking place to prepare for the 100th
anniversary of the first of several RF wireless
broadcast demonstrated by Nathan B. Stubblefield,
(NBS) in 1892. Troy was heading the group of
educators to prove up Hortin's early day 1930 Wi-Fi
research writings, and his 1951 article, "Did He
Invent Radio?"
The third paragraph in Hortin's "KENTUCKY PROGRESS
MAGAZINE - "BIRTHPLACE of Radio," March 1, 1930,"
reads: "What price glory? Although he undoubtedly
gave the world its greatest invention, the radio,
he failed to get the honor due him. He wanted
glory, for he wrote to his cousin Vernon
Stubblefield: "You and I will yet add luster to the
Stubblefield name. N.B.S." Now the little tobacco
and college town of Murray, Kentucky, is trying to
add that luster to his name by erecting in his
memory a marker near the ruins of his old home. The
tardy memorial will be dedicated March 28, 1930,
exactly two years after his death."

It was a few days after the 1991 MSU- NBS100 event,
when Dr. Hortin, Troy and the TCS TV staff were
filming the front of the WNBS radio station when
one of the crew members questioned Hortin, "Did He
Really Invent Radio?" Hortin, in a cranky voice
said, "the forklore stops here son. See the radio
stations call letters --WNBS? . . . well the "NBS"
are the initials of Nathan B. Stubblefield, the
inventor . . . and, while your at it, see the tall
aerial? . . . it grew out of his soil-coil
industrial school teleph-on-delgreen antenna
experiments in
1892.

STORY
When "Nathan B. Stubblefield
Forklore Stops Here" creator Dr. L.J Hortin, Ph.D.
talked about the way academia regards his craft,
during the NBS panel debate, he sounded more like
the theoretical
physicist Albert Einstein,
(March 14, 1879 &endash; April 18, 1955), selling
his famed E=mc2 equation, than his old self.
The bold journalistic
professor he portrayed during his career at MSU was
the individual at MSU, that taught his students to
carry-on the historical RF wireless broadcasting
feats of NBS. It was both Dr. Hortin and and
Dr. Ray Mofield, Ph.D. whose
teachings jump-started the radio controversary now
taking place around the Internet. There's no doubts
today, it was NBS who demonstrated, perfected,
marketed and patented voice RF transmissions from
the late 1880s to 1912, -- using his delgreen
antennas.
The former Murray State
University Journalism Dept. head was convinced that
colleges and universities wasn't giving the world
of radio television and the Wireless
Telephone -- serious equal respect, despite
the spread of programs, departments and schools
focused on the field.
In the academic hierarchy,
the study of journalism and the users of the E.M.F.
and RF forces developed by Stubblefield on his
Teléph-on-délgreen
acreage, now MSU, to transmit audio and other
"moving images" media through space, does not rate
at the same level as the law school, or the medical
school or the school of agriculture or the school
of architecture. It just isn't thought of in the
same breath, "which is for
me a sacrilege," Hortin said, with the choking
force of his own words. MORE
ABOUT Teléph-on-délgreen
acreage
So now Hortin is striking
back -- with the help of the grandson of Nathan B.
Stubblefield.
Hortin spoke at yesterdays
MSU-NBS study panel discussing the history of the
Wireless Telephone invention, backed up by
Keith Stubblefield, (Troy Cory), James L. Johnson,
Larry Albert, and Dr. Ray Mofield, Ph.D. Hortin
refreshed the memories of those in the packed
auditorium, as to why Rainey T. Wells, the founder
and president of College, sponsored the 1931
groundbreaking ceremony.
The memorial pictured,
highlights Stubblefield's contributions to MSU,
then named, Murray State Teachers College, with his
Wireless Telephone legacy. The 85 acres where
NBS invented and developed the RF radio wave device
from 1885 to 1908, was called Teleph-on-delgreen.
Hortin admitted that the NBS Industrial School was
a precursor to the University, and to show due
respect to the inventor, a building should be named
in his honor.
During the RF wireless
experimental days of 1890 to 1906, the various
plots of damp green hotspots within
Teleph-on-delgreen acreage, were the locations
where the secrets of the NBS soil-coil mixtures
were at one time buried. The induction
soil-coil-aerials used to transmit
RF voice
signals from one delgreen wireless telephone aerial
hotspot to another, were powered by his induction
battery coils he invented in 1885. The Earth
Battery patent was applied for in 1896, and patent
granted in
1898.

One of the main changes the
1992 NBS Year will bring will be a new,
10,000-square-foot building complex to house the
NBS - TeleCom Museum across the court house.
The ceremony brought
together MUS officials, faculty, students and the
NBS family members and TCS Show performers, Tina
Kincaid, Angelica Bridges, Josie Cory and Troy
Cory-Stubblefield, was headed by Hollywood
publicists, Chris Harris and Dino DeLorean. It also
put a spotlight on the renaming of an existing
school to the School of NBS Arts & Science
Bldg., a change dictated by Hortin to signal the
role that Nathan B. Stubblefield played in moving
RF signals through space.
Troy added, "that those RF
signals surrounded by land-lines and poles, are
more fully described in his grandfather's patent
drawings of 1906. "They reflect the images used in
today's schools of journalism, TV, interactive
media or elsewhere. I predict that the term,
Wireless Telephone will play a more important
role in the future of modern day life . . . than
the word, 'Radio'".
The proposed School of NBS
Arts & Science Bldg. and NBS museum, provided
by the NBS Family Foundation, will not only propel
MSU's media journalism programs, but will also put
the world of Radio/TV "on notice that this is an
important RF discipline and should be taken
seriously."

Hortin's "Broadcast Magazine" article, published 41
years earlier, spotlighted the seriously of
maintaining RF antenna disciplines. Radio
Frequencies and the electromagnetic force, E.M.F.
to power wireless voice transmitters, were
established by Stubblefield on the dates NBS filed
for his 1898, E.M.F. battery, and his 1908 Wireless
Telephone copyrights, trademark and patent
grants." The first paragraph in Hortin's 1951 --
points this out:
Review
WAY DOWN in the tip of Kentucky you'll hear on your
radio every hour or so: "This is Station WNBS
Murray, Ky., Birthplace of Radio."
If you're a stranger in those parts, you'll smile
indulgently and reflect that it's probably a tall
tale told by an over-bourbonized Kentuckian . . .
"What about Marconi, DeForest, Fessenden, Preece,
Poulsen, Fleming, and all the others . . . (what
did they do)?" - "Oh, we've heard about some of
them. Of course, they deserve a lot of credit . . .
but . . .
Mr. Stubblefield, born in Murray, Ky., while still
in his teens, read and studied everything available
on the new science of electricity. When Alexander
Graham Bell phoned Tom Watson on March 10, 1876,
"Come here, Watson; I want you," Mr. Stubblefield
was experimenting with "vibrating" (non-electric),
communication devices, (varnished banjo strings),
and other "queer contraptions." (At the age of 18,
while apprenticing for law, he attended a Dolbear
lecture in Bethany, No. Carolina).
The Murray Weekly News carried this news item on
March 10, 1887: "Charley Hamlin has his telephone
in fine working order from his store to his home.
It is the Nathan Stubblefield patent and it was the
best I have ever talked through."
Mr. Stubblefield's vibrating telephone was patented
Feb. 21, 1888 -- Patent No. 378,183. His "acoustic
telephone" was a local success. About 1890 he
developed a "Bell telegraph."
Scientists had known for a long time, of course,
that electricity could jump across gaps of
intervening space. But just when or how this young
Kentucky inventor made the first private discovery
of the ability to transmit sounds by wireless will
perhaps never be known. Evidence points to the
period of 1890-1892. MORE

LOCHTE.
He did tell a St. Louis Post-Dispatch reporter in
January 1902: "I have been working for this 10 or
12 years, long before I heard of Marconi's efforts
or the efforts of others to solve the problem of
transmission of messages through space without
wires.... This solution is not the result of an
inspiration or the work of a minute. It is the
climax of
years."
"No Electricity - No
Aerials - No ground wires."
Mr. Stubblefield's first crude experiments "were
made without ground wires." He said the messages
were first sent "by means of a cumbersome and
incomplete machine through a brick wall and several
other walls of lath and plaster without wires of
any description." He called his first machine the
"wireless telephone" as the word "radio" or
"radio-telephony" was not then in use.
But what about Marconi? Mr. Stubblefield's
proponents have a rather simple answer. In the
first place, in 1890 Marconi was only 15 years of
age, since he was born April 17, 1875. Mr.
Stubblefield was 30 and had read and studied
practically all books and magazines available on
the subject.
In the second place, telegraphy is different is
different from telephony. Hence wireless telegraphy
and wireless telephony are different inventions.
Telephony has to do with transmission of sound,
while telegraphy does not. The radio of today is
understood primarily to refer to the transmission
and reception of sound.
In a book copyrighted by Trumbull White in 1902,
entitled our Wonderful Progress, there are separate
articles on Messrs. Marconi and Stubblefield. This
book gives the date of Marconi's success in
wireless telegraphy (not telephony) as 1899, but
adds: "He (Marconi) had not reached his majority
when the idea of telegraphy without wires began to
interest him and he decided upon it as his special
field of labor..." He would have reached his
"majority" in 1896; hence he probably, according to
this book, started working on it about 1895.
In this same book (a copy is on file in the Library
of Congress) is an article on "Telephoning Without
Wires." The article says flatly (p. 297): "The
inventor is Nathan Stubblefield."
Several close friends of Mr. Stubblefield have
testified that they were given private
demonstrations of the "wireless telephone" as early
as 1892. They were convinced, moreover, that he
doubtlessly had achieved success privately even
before that date.
Dr. Rainey T. Wells, former general counsel for the
Woodmen of the World and founder of Murray State
College, testified before a FCC Commissioner in
Murray in 1917 that he had personally heard Mr.
Stubblefield demonstrate his "wireless telephone"
as early as 1892.
What
did this early invention look like? What was its
secret, which Mr. Stubblefield so persistently
guarded ?
All who saw the early sets (he made several) tell
of mysterious boxes, batteries, coils,
nickel-topped steel rods, transmitters and
receivers.

Mr. Stubblefield manufactured his own batteries.
One type was later patented March 8, 1908, No.
600,457. This battery he later described as being
"the bed rock of all my scientific research in
raidio (his spelling) today."
The portable radio is a comparatively recent
development, but let Dr. Mason tell about the first
portable radio (wireless telephone) he saw about
1892:
"One day he (Mr. Stubblefield) handed me a device
in what appeared to be a keg with a handle on it.
Carrying out his instructions, I started walking
down the lane with the keg. From it I could hear
distinctly his voice and a harmonica which he was
broadcasting to me. Time and again I heard similar
demonstrations. These were several years before
Marconi made his announcement about wireless
telegraphy. CLICK
