Thanks for the history! Been driving past that plant for almost 40 years going back and forth across the state.
I was surprised when the article opened with what it said was the worlds first transistor radio, because I always thought that was the TR-1. It looks like GE made a prototype, but never took it to market.

I'm in the same boat. Been living here roughly 30 years, but this article was the first I'm learning about this fascinating bit of history! Glad the parent comment mentioned it!
