I again am puzzled about how we hams want to baby and pamper our things, our radios. They are lots more rugged than we think, I guess, and it would be better, I think, to just store the thing, whatev

Reading about failures in electronic devices, especially transistors and tubes, it appears that the only positive thing the owner can do to baby his radio is to leave it on all the time. That is, bey
