Work in t he field was mostly limited to military applications until about 1980\, wh en the FCC in the US and agencies\nin other countries responded to broadca st interference complaints by setting RF emission limits on commercial pro ducts. Though it wasn’t called EMC at the time\, those techniques were a pplied in the late 19th century.\nGuglielmo Marconi’s company demonstrat ed wireless telegraphy to the British navy\, hoping for a contract to sell the equipment. However\, the spark-gap noise bursts transmitted by Marcon i’s wireless limited communication to one pair of devices at a time and Marconi had to fix it in order to close the deal.\n\nThe stories of ambiti on\, salesmanship\, and resourcefulness give a colorful backdrop to our wo rk in EMC.
