Early portable military radio, artwork
Early portable military radio. Artwork of a soldier carrying an early portable military radio. Radios used by the military varied in size depending on how far they needed to transmit and receive. It was not until the invention of the transistor and its practical use from 1954 that radios could be greatly reduced in size, making them more portable

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork from Science Photo Library takes us back to the early days of military communication. In this illustration, a courageous soldier is depicted carrying an early portable military radio, showcasing the technological advancements of that era. The heavy and bulky nature of these radios is evident, highlighting the challenges faced by soldiers in their quest for effective communication on the battlefield. During the 20th century, before transistors revolutionized technology, radios used by the military varied in size depending on their transmission range. This particular artwork serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then. It wasn't until 1954 when transistors were invented and practically utilized that radios could be significantly reduced in size, making them more portable for soldiers. The white background emphasizes the focus on this remarkable piece of engineering marvel while allowing us to appreciate its intricate details. Tubes and valves can be seen within the radio's structure, representing primitive electronic components employed during that time. This illustration not only showcases historical significance but also pays homage to those who served in warfare relying on such equipment. It symbolizes human ingenuity and determination to overcome obstacles through technological advancements. As we admire this artwork, let us reflect upon how far our communication technology has progressed and express gratitude towards those who paved the way for modern innovations in military communications.
