A wire-based telegraph system was initially tried, and discarded. Because of distances and topography, wires proved to be difficult to lay and manage. A wireless system was then tested, and initial tests proved positive. At that point, the formal system was designed and built. After three weeks of effort, construction on the two telegraph devices and accompanying carrying boxes was completed. On 20 February, the sets were tested and launched. His Excellency, The President was given the honor of sending the inaugural message; he sent the word "Baugh", his own name, to the operator at the other end. The system is a success!
We are quite proud of our new telegraph system, and have thus made it possible for non-Molossians to use it, by sending a message via the Postal and Telegraph Service webpage. Please join us in celebrating our new and exciting communications system, the telegraph!
The new Molossian Postal and Telegraph Service webpage is located here.
