Federal Telegraph Company
The Federal Telegraph Company was created in 1910, the same year it built its pioneering transmission tower on San Francisco's Ocean Beach. During this period, FTC was also pioneering in the manufacturing of electronic equipment for wireless transmitting as well as developing a commercial arm. In 1917, the U.S. Navy acquired FTC and its transmitting facilities for use during World War I.
