Dijkstra's recollections are most comprehensive.

He served from late 1920 up to 1945 in Dutch East-Indies (now Indonesia)

His first radio engagement (in Dutch-Indies) started at Malabar. He constructed, for instance, the magnetic-coil (10 tons) for Dr de Groot's famous 2400 kW Poulsen type transmitter. He was also engaged in several engineering projects at Malabar and at the Radio-Laboratory in Bandung.

In this respect, he must be regarded a first hand eye-witness!

In post war years Dijkstra made a kind of CV in which he, briefly, explains his radio career (in Dutch language).  (pdf, 33 kB only!)

These contributions are based on documents kept in Dijkstra's family archive.

Keywords:

Malabar, Dr de Groot, Einthoven, Poulsen transmitter, Koomans, Kootwijk

Klaas Dijkstra spent some weeks, on behalf of the Dutch East-Indies PTT, in the electronics lab. (studying the state of affairs of transmitter technology) at the Technische Hogeschool Delft (now TU-Delft), in 1927.
