No, it was actually founded in 1963. But close, the founder of Mirtone went on later to start up Mircom in 1991, after Edwards/GS bought Mirtone out in 1989.

Okay, here’s one: What year did simplex introduce the 4251-20 pull station?

I’m bumping this just to continue this topic since it hasn’t been active, let’s keep this going until someone pins it.

The question about the Simplex 4251-20, I’m gonna take a guess though I have a feeling I might not get it right but based on some limited research I tried to do, I am gonna say 1973?
