Abstract
In September, 1902, Marconi was back from a long trip on the Italian Royal Navy's cruiser “Carlo Alberto”, where he successfully carried out many radio experiments in the northern seas, and soon, he expressed his intention to build a powerful intercontinental station in Italy. The station, which would be the first in Marconi's home country (and one of the first in the world, too), was intended to provide radiotelegraphic connections with Americas and Africa using frequencies below 100 kHz, which, at the time, were believed to be the sole option for long-distance radio communications. After some surveys across Italy, the selected site for this new station was Coltano, a marshy rural area between Pisa and Leghorn, near the Tyrrhenian Sea. The station was then inaugurated by Marconi itself in 1911 with transmissions to Clifden (Ireland) and Glace Bay (Canada), followed by a pioneeristic link reaching Massawa (Eritrea), across more than 2000 km of Sahara's dry soil, which, until then, was considered an unsurmountable obstacle for the propagation of low-frequency ground waves. This was just one of many astonishing records set by this once worldwide renowned, but now almost completely forgotten, radio station, born from Marconi's genius.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
