Introduction
 Radio Pakistan is serving as a public broadcaster for the radio technology in Pakistan. It is
Pakistan’s oldest broadcasting-network which was founded on 14 the August 1947 after the
independence of Pakistan. Network services include FM 93, FM 101, and AM News-ServiceAn
interesting point in features is the introduction of new and old places to the listeners. People are
always keen in knowing about places. A radio feature comes handy in knowing so much in a
brief time about the spots one wishes, either to go for the purposes of visiting or staying there for
other reasons. Other than such places, there are spots of historical importance people want to
know about.

Main body
There may be a feature on the city of Lahore which will include its old civilization, growth,
battles, invasions, cultural transition, recent history and the living style of people. There may be
a feature on the same pattern about Peshawar and the historical Khyber Pass. Personality
Features Perhaps the common most radio features could be placed here. At time you wish to
provide a detailed view of a person, its life achievements, living style, and contribution to the
sphere of his profession. For Instance, Dec 25 is approaching and the broadcasting house is
mindful to produce a feature on Quaid-i-Azam. A team would be set up much before that day to
prepare a feature to be aired on that date. The feature will comprise a complete profile of Quaid's
life, his thoughts, struggle, campaigns, political odds he faced, parleys he held with the Raj and
congress party, his leadership qualities, research done by various scholars and referrences of
books and articles written on him and with the conclusion which is relevant today.

The first radio news program was broadcast August 31, 1920 by station 8MK
in Detroit, Michigan, which survives today as all-news format station WWJ under ownership of
the CBS network. The first college radio station began broadcasting on October 14, 1920, from
Union College, Schenectady, New York under the personal call letters of Wendell King,
an African-American student at the school.
And if the feature is on Mirza Ghalib we must be passing through a similar exercise with the
only difference that instead of political aspect, we would be emphasizing more on the literary
side of his personality, his contemporary poetry, and how he has been understood by towering In
1947 AT&T commercialized the Mobile Telephone Service. From its start in St. Louis in 1946,
AT&T then introduced Mobile Telephone Service to one hundred towns and highway corridors
by 1948. Mobile Telephone Service was a rarity with only 5,000 customers placing about 30,000
calls each week. Because only three radio channels were available, only three customers in any
given city could make mobile telephone calls at one time Mobile Telephone Service was
expensive, costing US$15 per month, plus much more capacity. It was the primary analog
mobile phone system in North America (and other locales) through the 1980s

That is not end of the radio as far as producing radio features is concerned. There is much more
which could still be done in this area like doing this exercise to discuss ideas, laws, role of
parliament, primary or higher education, visits of troupes from other countries, a novel feature
Ended film creating ripples in the cinema world etc.
Through the end of the 20th century in Pakistan inventor radio feature worked on the possibility
of making audio radio transmissions, in contrast to the early spark-gap transmissions that could
only transmit Morse code messages. To this end he worked on developing a high-speed
alternator that generated "

pure sine waves" and produced "a continuous train of radiant waves of substantially uniform
strength", or, in modern terminology. transmitter. While working for the on Maryland, Fessenden
began research on audio transmissions via radio. Because he did not yet have a continuous-wave
transmitter, initially he worked with an experimental "high-frequency spark" transmitter, taking
advantage of the fact that the higher the spark rate, the closer a spark-gap transmission comes to
producing continuous waves. He later reported that, in the fall of 1900, he successfully
transmitted speech over a distance of about 1.6 kilometers (one mile which appears to have been
the first successful audio transmission using radio signals. Although successful, the sound
transmitted was far too distorted to be commercially, Massachusetts. Ships at sea heard a
broadcast that included Fessenden on and reading a passage Sports broadcasting began at this
time as well, including the college football on radio broadcast of a 1921 West Virginia vs.
Pittsburgh football game.
One of the first developments in the early 20th century was that aircraft used commercial AM
radio stations for navigation. This continued until the early 1960s when VOR systems became
widespread. In the early 1930s, single sideband and frequency modulation were invented by
amateur radio operators. By the end of the decade, they were established commercial modes.
Radio was used to transmit pictures visible as television as early as the 1920s. Commercial
television transmissions started in North America and Europe in the 1940s.
