Dick Smith talks about how he got started, the early Dick Smith Electronics days, his round the world adventures in a helicopter, balloon, and plane, and how amateur HAM radio played a huge part in his adventures and saved his life. He also discusses Dick Smith foods, the loss of Australian manufacturers, and some old products like his "big dick" power supply!
