The Marconi Company Broadcasting Division Museum Exhibit

Historic late 1960s television broadcasting equipment from The Marconi Company inside the Chelmsford and Essex Museum at Oaklands Park in Chelmsford (UK).

 

The equipment at the back is a television signal transmitter with a Marconi BBC studio camera and other artefacts including a radar thingy at the front.

 

Heartbreaking to see this engineering from someone who spent 15 years working for the company in manufacturing and the way the 'Marconi' name, the various local factories and all that expertise has been completely lost from the town and history.
