Interesting Mullard film

[PRR]

Let's see if I can blow-up this forum.....

Typical RCA. Lots of skilled hand-work at low wages.

Over at Mullard, Blackburn:

Somewhat more mechanization.

Dr Allen B. DuMont mostly invented the service oscilloscope, but in 1953 he was bragging on his TV work.

This is wrong: a male tube maker in the Czech Republic.

Gor blimey no, guv. Only those selected for public speaking. And at that point, I'll stop because I remember that I was the one who said, "No political posts on diyAudio".

Flashback: during my stint at the NATO HQ in the south of The Neterlands we often had to entertain and brief politicians (the ones that hold the strings to the purse). A friend of mine always had to do the briefings. Not that he had to do anything with the material, he had to learn it by heart, but he spoke so 'British'.

he spoke so 'British'.

Having a plum in my gob hasn't hurt my career, either. Nice hearing a good array of regional accents these days on the radio.
