The chronicle author joined around 2000. For 1988–1999 — cable TV, exhibitions, instruments, VVIP installs — this page marks the boundary: witness testimony on this site begins later.

By a former associate of Kunwer Sachdev


I joined Mr Sachdev around 2000, when Su-Kam was already deep in inverter work. I was not there for 1988–1999 — the cable-TV rooftops, Hong Kong and Singapore exhibition floors, the spectrum analyser at customs, EchoStar distributorship, dish systems on VVIP rooftops, or the early bench work that preceded power backup.

This chronicle does not retell those years. They sit outside the scope of what I can speak to as a witness in the room.

Witness testimony on this site begins with The Accidental Inventor (1998) (heard-it framing for 1998–99) and in earnest from The Appointment Letter Said Communication Systems (2000).
