““His coils helped him discover yet another phenomenon that would change the world: radio waves. When Tesla tuned two coils to resonate at the same frequency, he found that he could send and receive signals. He had accidentally built the first radio transmitter and made the first transmissions, methods he would patent within two years. Tesla’s continued research in the field of ultra-high-frequency energy led him to conclude that it was only a matter of time until science would discover””
