Radio ham's 2MT replica transmitter

Marconi veteran Peter Watkins M0HBY put his 2MT transmitter replica on
public show for the first time at the International Marconi Day event in
Sandford Mill on April 23, 2016

CRHnews report: Here Peter talks about the historic transmitter and how he
managed to acquire the original glass valves and of his hopes of a future
upgrade that would see it in action.

The original 1922 2MT Writtle transmitter

As part of Chelmsford Museums, Sandford Mill offers a whole host of
activities when open for special events, however, it is only open to the
public on event days unless by prior arrangement.

Throughout the year the Mill holds a selection of events ranging from a
celebration of Marconi to historical re-enactments and Science Experiments
for all the family.

>From April to October the Mill offers a unique range of hands-on,
interactive education sessions utilising special equipment and expert
teachers.

In these sessions students can learn through practical activities in order
to answer big questions and discover new ways of thinking.

Chelmsford was once home to several major industries including:
• Marconi, who were the forerunners in developing both radio and television
• Crompton, a major electrical engineering company
• Hoffman, a manufacturer of bearings for a variety of products across the
world

Much of Chelmsford Museums industrial collection is stored and displayed at
Sandford Mill and is available to view during events.

This includes the historic 1922 Writtle Hut from which Marconi made the
first regular entertainment broadcasts.

Much of the work at the Mill is done by a dedicated band of volunteers
whilst other external organisations lend much valuable support. If you wish
to help us then please get in touch.
