The Maskelyne-Marconi affair refers to an event on June 4, 1903 involving Nevil Maskelyne (magician) (nonfiction)), Guglielmo Marconi, and John Ambrose Fleming.

Maskelyne, who was Marconi's business adversary, ruined Fleming's public demonstration of Marconi's new syntonic radio system by sending derogatory messages, hurt Fleming's credibility.
