Description:

is to research, document and celebrate the history and product related technical achievements in radio communications of Pye Telecommunications Ltd.of Cambridge, England, its forerunners and successors. Over more than a 75 year period the radio communications activities of the Pye Group was known as Pye Ltd, Pye Telecommunications, Philips Radio Communications Systems (PRCS), Philips Telecom-PMR, Simoco International Ltd, Sepura PLC and Team Simoco Group. The Pye Telecom Historic Collection material was the Company's own museum collection of radio communications equipment which until 2002 was exhibited at the Pye/Philips/Simoco buildings at St. Andrews Road, Cambridge, England. The core time period of Pye in radio communications is from 1939 to 2002 although some parts of the company such as Sepura PLC and Team Simoco Group have continued to be leading companies in the field of radio communications to the present day. The story of Pye in radio communications began in early 1939 with theinvolvement of Pye Ltd in the development of Coastal Defence (CD) radar for the Army and airborne radar for the RAF. In 1940 Pye began work on wireless equipment for the Army and did pioneering work on the artillery proximity fuze. Post World War 2 Pye progressed smoothly into the development of the commercial Private Mobile Radio (PMR) industry (known as Land Mobile Radio (LMR) in the United States) using analogue transmission and 50 years later into the digital communications of today which use the Tetra system and TCP/IP protocols etc. Grateful acknowledgments are due to the former management and staff of Simoco Radio Ltd of Derby (formerly Mobicom Ltd) for allowing much of the material from the Pye Telecom Historic Collection to be saved in 2002. Donations of various equipment and documents from various donors are also gratefully acknowledged and listed in a separate web page on this site.
