Title
Wireless battery
Description
Communication sped up throughout the twentieth century, but news wasn’t that new by the time it got to Shetland by sea. The wireless meant islanders were up-to-the minute by the 1930s. Radios ran on batteries that were periodically re-charged. Most people went to a firm with a generator, although some homes had a wind-generator. On the Move gallery IMP 1997.16
