3 Weekly Transmission 36 III Thursday 8 September John Hammond Jr «John Hays Hammond Jr. ( ), American inventor, is known as "The Father of Radio Control". Hammond s pioneering developments in electronic remote control are the foundation for all modern radio remote control devices, including modern missile guidance systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and the unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAVs). Of Hammond s many individual inventions, the inventions which have seen the most significant application are the variable pitch or controlled pitch propellers and single dial radio tuning. He was the son of famous mining engineer and billionaire John Hays Hammond, Sr.. Born in San Francisco, California, his family moved to South Africa and the Transvaal in His father was active as a mining engineer for Cecil Rhodes' mines in South Africa. In 1898, the family moved to England, where young Hammond fell in love with castles and life in earlier times, even searching royal genealogy. The family returned to the United States at the turn of the 20 th century. At the age of twelve, Hammond accompanied his father on a business trip to Thomas Edison s laboratory in West Orange, New Jersey. Upon being introduced to Edison, the boy asked so many questions that the inventor gave him a personal tour of the complex and assumed the role of mentor.[citation needed] The two would remain in contact for the rest of Edison s life. While studying at the Sheffield Scientific School of Yale University, Hammond became interested in the new study of radio waves and he was taken under the wing of Alexander Graham Bell. Bell also became his mentor and the two would remain close friends until Bell s death. After graduation from Yale in 1910, Hammond took a job in the U.S. Patent Office. His strategy was simple: having learned from Edison that "inventing had to be a money-making proposition, where better to learn what fields were up-and-coming than in the Patent Office?" After he became an authority on the patent process, he founded the Hammond Radio Research Laboratory on his father s estate in Gloucester, Massachusetts. In total, he is credited with more than 800 foreign and domestic patents on more than 400 inventions (the exact number of inventions is vague due to how credit was listed on the forms) mostly in the fields of radio control and naval weaponry.
4 Weekly Transmission 36 IV Thursday 8 September He served on the Board of Directors of RCA and a listing of his professional colleagues and society friends reads like a Who s Who of the rich and famous. Aside from his inherited wealth, his inventions brought Hammond an additional fortune. Between the years 1926 and 1929, he built a castle (including a drawbridge) which became his home, laboratory, and a showplace for his collection of Roman, medieval, and Renaissance artifacts. Hammond was also interested in the mechanism and workings of the pipe organ, and had a huge organ installed in the castle's Great Hall. Famous organists, including Richard Ellsasser and Virgil Fox, performed and made commercial recordings on this instrument, unfortunately no longer in operating condition (2015). Overlooking Gloucester Harbor in the North Shore region of Massachusetts, Hammond Castle is now a museum which offers self-guided tours throughout half the year and hosts fundraising events on a regular basis. A biography of John Hays Hammond Jr. entitled Living in the Past, Looking to the Future (2004) was written by John Dandola. Hammond also appears as a character (and his castle is featured) in several of Dandola s mystery novels which are set during World War II. This real photo-illustrated tapuscript in four volumes resume his preliminary research from 1912 till 1915 to the invention of remote control. The large 4 volumes bear the title: «Teledynamic development in the United States». The dedication is to his close friend Leslie Buswell euros
5 Weekly Transmission 36 V Thursday 8 September About the dedication to Leslie Buswell ( ) «Lt. Col. (British) Leslie Buswell, born in England in 1888, is perhaps the least well-known today of what became, early in the 20th century, a foursome of wealthy, good-looking, hard-partying men who met in the social circles of Boston and Eastern Point and reached their zenith of fame and fortune in the 1920s and 30s. The group included A. Piatt Andrew of Eastern Point (owner of the house with the red roof), Henry Davis Sleeper (eccentric designer and builder of the house next to that, Beauport), and John Hayes Hammond, equally eccentric builder of Hammond Castle. Stillington Hall, built by Buswell in 1926, joined the others on an opposite peak above the harbor, forming a triangle with Sleeper s and Hammond s mansions. Buswell had known the other three men at least since the First World War, when he is credited with having written «No. 10 Ambulance», a series of letters home to his friends in Gloucester from his position as an ambulance driver for the American Field Service in France. The book remains one of the first (and, according to Ernest Hemingway, finest) examples of first-person accounts of the Great War. Brutal, sad, awestruck at times, Buswell puts down the raw narrative of a new kind of war carnage, it earned Buswell the Croix de Guerre, a rare war distinction usually reserved for the French alone.
6 Weekly Transmission 36 VI Thursday 8 September The book lends an unfamiliar dimension to a group of men whose Gloucester escapades as rich playboys have come down to us, in part, rife with gossip and innuendo. Their excesses are recorded in print from various sources, but in Gloucester there are still those who remember the stories as they were recounted around town, such as the reports of games of nude leapfrog on the grounds of various mansions and wild parties at Hammond Castle and Beauport... Mr. Buswell who had been edu cated at Winchester School and Caius College, Cambridge Uni versity and had came to the United States as an actor was engaged in research in elec tronics in Gloucester by his wealthy friend John Hammond Jr. In the mid nineteen-twenties he could build (with his fourth wife) an expensive home in the style of a 16th Century English manor house, overlooking Gloucester harbor, with a 200-seat theater beside it.» (Local Newspaper, GLOUCESTER, Mass., Oct ) Shoemaker Wireless Torpedo Control, page 179, 110x160 mm
