Summary:

The Minimitter Company, London

Specializing in amateur radio equipment.

Founded: 1954
Closed: 1964
History:

The Minimitter Company was formed in 1954 by David Godwin, G2DOJ, and the Minimitter Transmitter De Luxe, a five-band 150W unit followed soon after. As the company grew, construction moved first to Paddington and then to Kilburn. The Minimitter range expanded and in 1959 the company won 'First Award for Manufacturers Equipment' at the RSGB exhibition at the Royal Horticultural Old Hall in London. Minimitter was sold in 1964 and David Godwin started a company producing sound units for the audio and film industry.

David Godwin died on 8 December 2003, at age 85.

(From an obituary in "RadCom", The Radio Society of Great Britain Members' Magazine, March 11, 2004).
