I tried Louis Muelstee's (sp?) epic series on wireless (Wireless for the Warrior) and although the diagrams sometimes have the face plate with MEC Ltd. on them, nowhere I can find does he define who/what this stands for!
Agree it is not Mills ..... but who/what?
According to Wicked-pedia, the company names have been as follows, none of which seems to fit MEC Ltd:
Naming history
1897–1900: The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company
1900–1963: Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company
1963–1987: Marconi Company Ltd
1987–1998: GEC-Marconi Ltd
1998–1999: Marconi Electronic Systems Ltd
1999–2003: Marconi plc
2003–2006: Marconi Corporation plc
