Magnetic detector

Marconi's wireless magnetic detector (London)

The magnetic detector or Marconi magnetic detector, sometimes called the "Maggie", was an early radio wave detector used in some of the first radio receivers to receive Morse code messages during the wireless telegraphy era around the turn of the 20th century.[1][2] Developed in 1902 by radio pioneer Guglielmo Marconi[1][2][3] from a method invented in 1895 by New Zealand physicist Ernest Rutherford[4] it was used in Marconi wireless stations until around 1912, when it was superseded by vacuum tubes.[5] It was widely used on ships because of its reliability and insensitivity to vibration. A magnetic detector was part of the wireless apparatus in the radio room of the RMS Titanic which was used to summon help during its famous 15 April 1912 sinking.[6]
