WGI (defunct)
WGI was a pioneering United States radio station based in Medford Hillside, Massachusetts, originally using the experimental callsign 1XE.
==Early history==
Harold J. Power (born 1893) was fascinated as a young boy by the experiments of radio pioneer Guglielmo Marconi and like many others of the time was determined to repeat them for himself. He built his first radio receiver when only 10 years old, and by the age of 12, was operating an amateur radio transmitter from his home in Everett, MA.〔(''The Rise and Fall of WGI'' ) Accessed 24 January 2008〕 By the time he attended Tufts College near Boston, Power had built and transmitted with several types of radio set, and he used the knowledge he had gained to finance his college tuition by teaching the technology of radio at a nearby high school. Power graduated from Tufts with a degree in Engineering in 1914.
Still fascinated with radio, Power and several of his fellow Tufts graduates formed a company dedicated to improving existing receiver design and advancing radio technology. With the help of two of his former professors, Power was able to obtain some land and a small building on the Tufts campus at Medford Hillside and The American Radio and Research Corporation
(AMRAD) was founded in 1915.〔(Tufts Interactive Timeline ''AMRAD founded, 1915'' )〕
