 ralph milne farley, usual by-line of roger sherman hoar, 1887-1963, on his fiction:
he wrote far more in this ''radio'' series than i'd realised - i was only aware of the first three:

#1: ''the radio man'' (1948), q.v. (serialised argosy all-story weekly 28/6/, 5, 12, 19/7/1924)
aka ''an earthman on venus'' (1950), (this book)
#2: ''the radio beasts'' (1964), q.v. (serialised argosy all-story weekly 21, 28/3/, 4, 11/4/1925)
#3: ''the radio planet'' (1964), q.v. (serialised argosy all-story weekly 26/6/, 3, 10, 17, 24, 31/7/1926)
#4: ''the radio flyers'' (1975), q.v. (serialised argosy all-story weekly 11, 18, 25/5/, 1, 8/6/1929)
#5: ''the radio gun-runners'' (2016), q.v. (serialised argosy 22/2/, 1, 8, 15, 22, 29/3/1930)
#6: ''the radio menace'' (2008), q.v. (serialised argosy 7, 14, 21, 28/6/, 5, 12/7/1930)
#7: ''the radio pirates'' (serialised argosy 1, 8, 15, 22/8/1931)
#8: ''the radio war'' (2006), q.v. (serialised argosy 2, 9, 16, 23, 30/7/1932)
#9: ''the golden city'' (2006), q.v. (serialised argosy 13, 20, 27/5/, 3, 10, 17/6/1933)
#10: ''the radio man returns'' (collection 2008), q.v. (only the title short story) (amazing vol.13 #6, 6/1939)
#11: ''the radio minds of mars'' (2008), q.v. (serialisation in spaceway started vol.3 #2, 6/1955, re-started vol.4 #1, 1/1969, continued vol.4 #2, 6/1969 and completed vol.4 #3, 10/1969)

sub-burroughsian ''planetary romances'';
#1, #2, #3, #8, #10 & #11 constitute the ongoing adventures of myles cabot; later of myles and his son.

n.b. i've not read these, so i've ordered them by the dates over which they were serialised.
