CDC bought TRG, a company that made microwave stuff back in the 60s. CDC
also branched out into medical equipment, industrial controls, art books,
used cars, shotguns, and vodka.

Some old microwave stuff came into the radio museum lately, probably 60/70s
vintage, amongst which was a piece with a "Control Data - TRG Division"
label on it. Control Data was even imprinted on the waveguide adjustment
micrometers. Idle curiousity, but anyone know how CD was involved with
microwave waveguide componentry, or what the TRG Division was? (Chuck?) I
didn't know CD branched out into anything beyond computing.
