==Bergen radio== In 1912, with funding from the Norwegian parliament, the Bergen radio station was constructed on top of Rundemanen. The station housed Norway's first long distance coastal radio, allowing for increased naval safety through direct communication with ships off the coast. In 1927, the station's crew assembled their own shortwave antenna and receiver equipment, becoming the first radio station in Norway to receive a shortwave telegram.
