History: |
Bendix Radio Foundation Volunteers: They were all affected by the revolutionary devices produced by Bendix Radio—a division of the Bendix Corporation—which specialized in producing two-way radios for military aircrafts during WWII. In 1937, Bendix Radio set up shop inside a General Motors plant located at 920 E. Fort Avenue before moving to a larger plant in Towson four years later. In October of 2000, six former Bendix Radio employees founded the Bendix Radio Foundation (BRF) at the Baltimore Museum of Industry BMI to preserve the company legacy and its six decades of contributions to the radio and communication industry. |
