    Small world....

    Being in the broadcast engineering business, I had occasion to watch a video about a mammoth shortwave transmitter made by Marconi.

    It was beautifully built, especially the silver-plated coils in the tuned circuits; they were made by Boosey & Hawkes!

    Rolls-Royce has made airline engines for years, but that seems well-tied to their core business. But you B&H example is a little more outside the business of building horns! Interesting stuff.
