Origin

Early 20th century: from radio- in radio-telegraphy and radio-telegram, based on Latin radius 'ray, beam'.

ray from Middle English:
The ray that means ‘beam of light’ is a medieval word going back to Latin radius ‘spoke, ray’, the source of radiate (late 16th century) , radio (early 20th century), and radius (late 16th century). The term ray of sunshine for someone who brings happiness into the lives of others, dating back to the early 20th century, is often used ironically for someone who in fact spreads little cheer. Ray as a name for a fish is a different word, from Latin raia.
