The Radio Act of 1934 was a significant piece of legislation in the United States that established the framework for regulating radio communications. It created the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which was responsible for overseeing and managing the airwaves to ensure that radio broadcasts were conducted fairly and efficiently. This act aimed to eliminate interference between radio stations and promote the development of broadcasting. The act also aimed to ensure that radio frequencies were used in the public interest, convenience, and necessity. It set guidelines for licensing radio stations and established rules to prevent monopolistic practices in the broadcasting industry. Overall, the Radio Act of 1934 laid the groundwork for modern telecommunications regulation.
