Acoustic telegraphy was also known as harmonic telegraphy . During the late 19th century, inventor s developed methods of multiplexing transmitting more than one Telegram telegraph messages simultaneously over a single Electrical telegraph telegraph wire by using different Audio frequency audio frequencies or Channel communications channels , for each message. A telegrapher used a conventional Morse key to tap out the message in Morse code . The key pulses were transmitted as pulses of a specific audio frequency. At the receiving end a device Musical tuning tuned to the same frequency resonated to the pulses but not to others on the same wire. Inventors who worked on the acoustic telegraph included Charles Bourseul , Thomas Edison , Elisha Gray , and Alexander Graham Bell . Their efforts to develop acoustic telegraphy, in order to reduce the cost of telegraph service, led to the invention of the telephone . ref Standage, pages 195 199 ref Some of Thomas Edison s devices used multiple synchronized tuning fork s tuned to selected audio frequencies and which opened and closed electrical circuits at the selected audio frequencies. Acoustic telegraphy was similar in concept to present day FDMA , or Frequency Division Multiple Access, used with radio frequencies. The word acoustic comes from the Greek akoustikos meaning hearing, as with hearing of sound waves in air. Acoustic telegraphy devices were electromechanical and made musical or buzzing or humming sound waves in air for a few feet. But the primary function of these devices was not to generate sound waves, but rather to generate alternating electrical currents at selected audio frequencies in wires which transmitted telegraphic messages electrically over long distances.

Wireless Telegraphy Act is with its variations a stock short title used for legislation in the Republic of Ireland , South Africa and the United Kingdom relating to wireless telegraphy . The Wireless Telegraphy Acts are laws regulating radio communications in the United Kingdom . Wireless telegraphy as a concept is defined in British law as the sending of electro magnetic energy over paths not provided by a material substance. The term telegraphy , although best known in relation to the electric telegraph , relates to the sending of messages over long distances. Wireless telegraphy is differentiated from electrical telegraphy in that the messages are transmitted via electromagnetic means light or radio rather than via a physical electrical cable connection.

Radio relay leagues Amateur radio Radio amateur s have been early in arranging relay leagues, as is reflected in the name of the organization of American Radio Relay League ARRL , http www.arrl.org . Radio amateur message relay operations were originally conducted using Morse code in the first two decades of the 20th century using spark gap transmitter s. As vacuum tube s became affordable operations shifted to more efficient manual telegraphy transmitters, referred to as CW Continuous wave . Messages were relayed station to station typically covering four or more re transmission cycles to cover the continental United States , in an organized system of amateur radio networks. After World War II , voice and radioteletype implementations of the message relay system were employed.
