What Happened to Collins Radio? The Fall of America’s Perfect Signal
Before Collins Radio became part of a giant aerospace corporation, it was the dream of one engineer who believed a signal should never fail. From Antarctic expeditions to commercial jetliners, from military aircraft to Apollo spacecraft, Collins built communication equipment trusted in the most dangerous places on Earth — and far beyond it. But behind the flawless performance was a company carrying a burden that even perfect engineering could not solve. This is the story of a radio empire that reached the Moon… but could not escape its own cost of perfection. #CollinsRadio #VintageRadio #RadioHistory
