A couple of years ago I turned up in the
local history museum of Moscow
Zelenograd . The standard museum of local history of any small region: the history of the region, a separate stand dedicated to the Second World War (the Germans were stopped at the Battle of Moscow just in those places), and a separate hall dedicated to the microelectronic industry of the USSR and Russia.
Important enterprises of the microelectronic industry of Russia are located in Zelenograd. Many of you are familiar with the products of the Angstrom plant, it was they who were involved in the release of the games of the series “Wolf catches eggs. But my view literally riveted a small box the size of a smaller matchbox with a headphone coming out of it, resembling modern earplugs. It was a miniature transistor radio "Micro" - the first serial product of microelectronics, launched into production in the USSR.

The release of the receiver was dated 1965. It was then that Anatoly Korobov with the team received a copyright certificate for this device. At the Angstrom plant they were going, mass production was transferred to the Minsk Radio Works. By the way, for Angstrem it was the first experience in the production of a finished device for release to the masses. They were produced not only in the domestic market, but also export.
Until the mid-seventies, this micro-receiver could be bought in the stores of the USSR and France. This receiver caused a worldwide sensation at a congress of radio engineers in the United States. They wrote about him in the newspapers: "How could the USSR overtake us?" It is noteworthy that even Khrushchev took them abroad as souvenirs, gave Gamal Nasser and even Queen Elizabeth himself.
