Radio 2XG

Radio station 2XG, also known as the "Highbridge Station", was an experimental radio station located in New York City and licensed to the De Forest Radio Telephone and Telegraph Company from 1915 to 1917 and 1920 to 1924. In 1916, it became the first radio station employing a vacuum-tube transmitter to make news and entertainment broadcasts on a regular schedule,[a] and, on November 7, 1916, became the first to broadcast U.S. presidential election returns by spoken word instead of by Morse code.
