Their history began after the sinking of the RMS Titanic in 1912, when nearby ships failed to receive distress calls because radio operators were off duty or radio frequencies were congested with routine transmissions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn response, the United States passed the Radio Act of 1912 (Act to Regulate Radio Communication), followed by similar international regulations that introduced mandatory 24\/7 radio watch and designated “radio silence” periods. During these intervals, all non-emergency communication had to cease so that operators could listen exclusively for distress signals on the international emergency frequency of 500 kHz, with 2182 kHz added as a second distress frequency from 1947. These strict timing intervals became the defining visual signature of Radio Room watches and clocks.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vostok Europe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58164140966152,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0970\/8752\/1032\/files\/NH34-224A793_Radio-Room_2026_Transparent_Background.png?v=1783334395","url":"https:\/\/vostok-europe.us\/lt\/products\/radio-room-nh34-224a793","provider":"Vostok Europe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
