In 1926 the first radio set appeared under "Eddystone" label, produced by
Stratton & Company Ltd. After the so called "blitz" bomb raid in Ocotober 1940,
the production facilities were transferred to a former Lido, the "Bath Tub" at West Heath,
Alvechurch Road, Birmingham. After beeing sold to Marconi in the sixties, the company was
definitely renamed "Eddystone Radio Ltd.", a branch of Marconi Communications Ltd.,
professional receivers and broadcast transmitters became the emphasis of production.
1995 the company's buildings were transferred to Selly Oak industrial estate, Birmingham,
and the company - with it's nowadays smaller dimensions - was taken over by Megahertz Communications.
