    Communication, often two-way, of spoken

   or radio waves.  The term was used to indicate transmission of
   the voice, as opposed to telegraphy (done in Morse code
   and usually called "continuous wave" or CW transmission),
   radio teletypewriter (RTTY) transmission (also called FSK for
   "Frequency Shift Keying", the modulation scheme used by such
   machines), and later, facimile.
