The specialized publications on radio represent a source of information of maximum value for researchers in the field of Communication Studies and Media History. Along with the first radio broadcasts in Spain, a set of specialized publications start selling, satisfying the need of radio aficionados for information, including technological developments and activities of the pioneer stations. Most of them have monthly editions and some run for a short period of time. Others manage to live longer and are published for several years. Some publications are born linked to radio broadcasters or associations of radio aficionados, others as independent editorial projects. This paper presents the results of this research, which describes in depth the history of magazines that emerged in the 1920s. This research was carried out in the main Spanish newspaper libraries, where we obtained detailed information about the following broadcasters: Radio Sport, Radio Sola, Radio Barcelona, Tele Radio, Radio Ciencia Popular, TSH, Radio e Ondas, all essential in order to understand the origins of radio broadcasting in Spain.
