Back  when I got started in the biz, RCA had the biggest booth at  NAB.
Now
it's just a consumer brand name being sold by one company to  another.
It's
now being sold by Thomsen to  Audiovox.

Basically   Western Electric  Broadcast Division of AT&T  was the major 
competition to RCA in the earliest days of  broadcasting.   I think Federal Radio & 
Television in the USA was  also one of the earlys.
 
It would be an interesting history
 
Western Electric sold a 6B transmitter to Radio Station WRR & the City  of 
Dallas, Texas in 1929.  I know Western Electric existed before that day  in 
Broadcasting  with WEAF in New York City.
 
WLW, 50 kW from Western Electric  what year?  Model # ?
 
RCA  Earliest AM transmitters??  KFI's first RCA  50 kW what  year?
