$\huge\bf\underline\mathtt\purple{Answer:}$

Yes, Radio technology could be successful without the Ionosphere.

$\green{\bullet}$The ionosphere does not provide anything that is required for radio communications but it can enhance the ability of some wavelengths to propogate greater terrestrial distances.

$\green{\bullet}$Especially at medium wave (300–3,000 kc) and short wave (3,000–30,000 kc) Frequencies.

$\green{\bullet}$The charged ionosphere will act as a reflector to spread Radio signal.

$\green{\bigstar}$Ionosphere is between 80 and about 600 km where Extreme UltraViolet (EUV) and x-ray solar radiation ionizes the atoms and molecules thus creating a layer of electrons.

$\green{\bigstar}$The atmospheric atoms and molecules are impacted by the high energy the EUV and X-ray photons from the sun.
