Astronomical Calendar: 2015 November

First Broadcast
On November 2, 95 years ago, the broadcasting industry began with the first commercial
radio broadcast from KDKA-AM in Pittsburgh (the very first broadcast was from the 
Westinghouse plant in the suburb of East Pittsburgh). That evening, with telegraph ticker
results from the Pittsburgh Post, KDKA broadcast election returns for the U.S. Presidential
Election of 1920, when Republican Warren G. Harding won a landslide victory over
Democrat James M. Cox (Image Source: KDKA). More information:
