Exposition Tesla, the Heritage of CZ Electric Industry
Exposition of heavy radio technology
The public exhibition of historical radio industry aimed at Czechoslovakian trademark Tesla was ceremonially opened on 11th August 2012.
After several years of the temporary exhibitions of Open Door type, in which the demonstrative exposure of broadcasting technology was held
on the ground floor of the Club building, Radio-club finally had a permanent exposition of the historical appliances. The exposition was built
under the project named "Through Renaissance region not only in the footsteps of history”, which was aimed at the establishment of the rural
museums and it was financed from the Agricultural Intervention Foundation, mediated by Local Action Group (LAD) Trestsko, o.p.s.
The exposition is open during the regular opening hours, though, it is
possible to arrange another term for your tour by an email or by a phone
call.
On 26th July 2015 the new publicly accessible exhibition was opened in our museum Tesla.
The exposition of heavy radio technology includes the techniques, which most of people
are not familiar with and which they did not normally have the possibility to see when
it was being operated. There is mainly broadcasting technology including transmitters not
only for radio but also the special ones that were broadcasting timestamps, telegrams
and telegraphs and dispatches intended for the embassies abroad. We have large stationary
transmitters with power of tens of kilowatts but also small "mobile" appliances with power
of tens to hundreds of watts. Those ones were used for operating in radio broadcasting but
also on the ships and liners of the Czechoslovakian boat fleet. Because radio and television
broadcasting must come to existence somewhere, we also prepared for our visitors the examples
of the directorial workplaces of the Czechoslovakian Radio and, last but not least, the
control and clearance workplace of television broadcasting from the Czechoslovakian
television, whose operation we are also able to perform. The exhibition also includes
a switchboard for the local radio station with its amplifier. It represents another type
of broadcasting, this time the cable one. Exposition is completed with measuring instruments
and products needed for setting and maintaining of transmitters, there are also power
transformers and samples of other HF devices.
