	Western Electric - Rosetta Stone for Triodes
		A similar parallel-feed circuit is found in the Western Electric 32A, which appears to predate the WE 92A by at least a decade.
		Before we go off the deep end on Western Electric, keep in mind the original WE amplifiers were designed in an era when all musical sources (movies, records, and AM radio) were restricted to 40 Hz to 12 kHz bandwidth at most, with 100 Hz to 5 kHz being much more common.
		The long-lost ideas and concepts from Western Electric are finally being brought to light by members of the K&K Audio Forum and the Bay Area enthusiasts.

		Indeed, Western Electric and Bell Laboratories (formed as a joint venture between Western and AT&T in 1925) proved capable of tremendous innovation in science, manufacturing, and human relations.
		Yet Western Electric was often unable to reap the returns from its own innovations, and in many ways Western Electric's story is a spectacular tale of paths not taken.
		The question of Western's efficiency and AT&T's use or abuse of its captive relationship leads to many of the issues at the heart of regulatory politics and antitrust activity in the United States.

	Notes on Western Electric (Bell System) Coin Telephone Locks
		Among the most interesting, and formidable, lever-tumbler locks in the United States were made by the Western Electric company to secure (former) Bell System coin telephones.
		(Similar locks were also made by Northern Electric and Automatic Electric to serve the Canadian and US independent telco markets.) These locks (as well as the payphones themselves) were required to withstand considerable physical abuse and function reliably for long periods with only limited maintenance.
		The standard Western Electric / Bell System single-slot ("fortress") payphone was equipped with two locks, as are current models from other vendors.

		In 1925 Western Electric sold its overseas manufacturing plants to a small company with a big name and even bigger ideas: International Telephone and Telegraph.
		Western kept a minority interest in one foreign company, Northern Electric, in Canada, until 1963..
		"Western Electric never controlled Northern Electric (now Nortel) although they owned shares always in a minority position, the most they held was 43.57% in 1929, by 1962 they held.01% and by 1964 they were fully divested.

		Western Electric founder and still president, Enos Barton, moved the company's main manufacturing plant from downtown Chicago to a more rural setting on the outskirts of the city in 1905.

	Doug's Phones
		Western Electric referred to telephones that sat on a desk "Desk Stands." I guess the term was used to distinguish these phones from the wooden wall sets that prevailed before the introduction of the desk telephone.
		In 1937, Western Electric came out with a new concept in telephones: an instrument that contained the entire "telephone" in one case that could sit on a desk: bell, coil, handset, hookswitch, dial, etc. This telephone was the 302.
		Electrically similar to the WE 500, the SC 1543 is an all-in-one-piece desk telephone, that had the added feature of being able to be converted into a wall set by changing the plungers on the cradle and inverting the dial.

	Western European Electric Drives Market Forecasts: Industry Research Report
		Electric Drive: An electric variable speed drive (electric drive) is defined as a power transmission system, where in the output rotational speed can be precisely varied, as the system is non-stepped and as such offers a continuous range of power, by means of an external command or control signal.
		Considering that electric drives represent a key area of power usage and potential saving, this is anticipated to have a significant impact on the sales of electric drives in new as well as retrofit applications over the forecast period.
		Also, the markets for electric drives in Switzerland, Austria, the Netherlands and Scandinavia are expected to show moderate growth over the forecast period, reflecting the high level of industrialisation and automation in these regions and the relocation of companies due to high production costs.

		All telephones, all components of the public switched telephone network (PSTN), and all devices connected to the network were made by Western Electric and no other devices were allowed to be connected to the network.
		Since Western Electric telephones were leased by subscribers and never sold, they were designed to be extremely durable, and the quality of manufacture of Western Electric telephones is the stuff of legend.
		Western Electric innovations included the Princess and Trimline telephones of the 1960s, and the development of touch-tone dialing as a replacement for rotary dialing.

	eBay Guides - Buying an Antique Western Electric 302 Telephone
		Western Electric eventually fitted the inside of the phone with one of the most durable networks it had developed so far for its compact subscriber ringer boxes, the 101A induction coil and the B1A 2 gong ringer.
		Though the first 5302's began leaking out in late 1948, it was not until the first part of the mid-50's that Western Electric had developed the G-1 handset for commercial use and attached it first to the 5302's and eventually to the new thermoplastic 500 model which was also designed by Dreyfuss.
		Western Electric had released a very limited run of white colored and see-through phones for the 1939 World's Fair, and so it was no inconceivable to them to produce the 302's in color.

	When Western Electric Secretly Controlled Kellogg
		As part of that deal Western Electric agreed to sell its products only to American Bell (which in 1899 was renamed American Telephone and Telegraph Co.) and thereby became its primary source of telephone equipment.
		Milo G. Kellogg resigned his position as superintendent of Western Electric's Chicago shop and in 1897 founded Kellogg Switchboard and Supply Company to supply telephones and switchboards to the new Independent telephone companies which, with the expiration of the Bell patent, were springing up all across the country.
		The lawsuit by Western Electric was, in reality, a "trial balloon" involving certain minor patents that had been infringed by Kellogg in the supply of the switchboard to Kinloch.
