A conversation with Mike Osborne: an electronics engineer who was based in Melbourne Australia, and has appeared on State of Electronics in numerous episodes. Sadly, Mike has passed on, gone silent key and this short video is really a series of excerpts from his 2011 interview. Mike worked for Australian Defense Science (AWA), Byer Tape recorders, lectured in electronic design at Caulfield Institute of Technology (now Monash Uni). He was President of the HRSA (Historical Radio Society of Australia).
Mike was so very knowledgable about the history of Australian and international technology. He will be missed by many. Thank you for your participation in State of Electronics. RIP Michael Osborne.
