          ★ 1912: THE SHORTWAVE EXILE (“200 METERS AND DOWN”)
        
        Following the Titanic disaster, commercial monopolies lobbied Congress to seize all usable frequencies, exiling amateur experimenters to “worthless” shortwaves under 200 meters (>1.5 MHz). Instead of giving up, amateurs discovered the ionosphere reflects high frequencies across the globe—turning an intended regulatory graveyard into the birthplace of modern global communications.
