Artie Moore
Arthur Moore (1887 – 20 January 1949) was a Welsh wireless operator who heard a distress signal from before news of the disaster arrived in the UK. Following the notoriety of this feat he went onto a successful career in sales, management and development of early radio.
==Early life==
Moore was born in Pontllanfraith, the eldest son of local miller, William Moore. At a young age Moore was involved in an accident at the mill, which resulted in the loss of the lower part of one of his legs, and for the rest of his life, he wore a wooden leg.
By the age of ten, Moore had developed an interest in amateur engineering and he adapted a bicycle to cater for his wooden leg, and locals recall him rattling around the village on it. As he grew, he became what is known as a "character" in the locality.
At some point prior to 1909, most likely in his early teenage years, Moore, a keen amateur engineer, using a hand made lathe driven by the water-wheel at the mill, built a working model of a horizontal steam engine. He entered the model in a competition in ''The Model Engineer'' magazine. He received as his prize a book by Sir Oliver Lodge entitled ''Modern Views of Magnetism And Electricity'', which awakened his interest in wireless.
