            I don't remember any mobile phones in 1979 - They must have been the size of tea chests!

            Or did you have to lug around a large backpack with a dish, like a mobile version of Jodrell Bank?

              Mobile phones were pioneered in the USA by bell Telephone Laboratories, After a trial in Chicago in 1979, the first public service opened in 1983.


              in 83 it was a car phone + car battery, you carried it round and developed muscles.
