On this day in 1954, music went portable as never before when the first practical transistor radio made in any significant numbers was announced. One year after the release of the TR-1 sales approached the 100,000 mark. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transistor_radio

Hmmmm, this one concerns me because of the "in open era" .. I had no idea what it was talking about and in order to find out I had to 1. Click the link, 2. search for a reference in the article to it 3. click to go to article about the History of tennis and 4. read the section there https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_tennis#Open_Era... I worry that's going to be really confusing for people and the number of steps would cause many not to completely understand.
Would people be happy with just saying "since 1968" ? (the start of the open era)
