Believe it or not the beginnings of the radio mic seems to be the industries version of the Chicken and the egg. There are many different people over a range of about 10 years who lay claim to inventing the Wireless microphone. The earliest of these would be Reg Moores, he first developed a radio microphone that was used by the cast of Aladdin on ice in 1949. The next theatrical implementation was seen 2 years later in 1951 by John F Stephens, this time implementing FM transition to achieve wireless in his system design, Stephens design was the kick start of the Americans wireless "bugging" operations.

The next slot of claims arrived from out with the theatrical area, the claim was set in the American sporting world, implemented in America's favourite past time baseball so that the umpires could be heard clearly when broadcast on NBC. The design was created by Herbert Magellan in 1951. It could be implied that both American designs in 1951 and 1953 had links to wireless microphone technology for military implementation.

4years later and across the pond, Shure laid claim to it's Vagabond system was in fact the first wireless system designed and build in 1953. 3 years after Shure (1957) we see another industry name Sennheiser in conjunction with a German broadcaster introducing it's take on a wireless microphone system.

Believe it or not even after all these claims it was not until 1964 that a patent was granted. So who was granted a patent, Raymond A. Litke, who invented his wireless system in 1957. This although argued not the actual first wireless microphone system, was in fact the first of what you could class as the father of modern wireless as we know it today. first introduced in two types like available to hire today standard handheld and (tie clip) lavalier mic.

Some of the first big celebrity names to use wireless technology include Kennedy and Nixon.

So although the argument continues, no one can deny that the 60's saw the start of true working and all important dependable wireless microphones. The biggest breakthrough in wireless technology was seen in 1976 when Nady Systems overjoyed the sound buffs, with wireless microphone quality that was of the same standard as a microphone using a wire.
