History

In 1921 Frank Boyer and his partner Arthur Frome opened a small variety shop specializing in electrical and radio components and specialized hardware and called it B&F Light and Sound. It catered to those needing electric light installation and fixtures. Many of the young tinkerers in early radio bought their supplies here.

Arthur, a self taught electrical engineer, began building a radio transmitter and would read the news each evening for those lucky enough to have a radio set.
