Oh boy..................memories
When I was a kid I was very interested in Ham radio. Read a lot about it 
but was never disciplined enough to learn my code well enough to pass 
the exam. I was pretty good on theory though. So I went into audio. At 
the ripe age of 15  I was building  6L6's and 6V6 push pull audio amps 
that I sold to my musician friends. Didn't know too much as I was 
copying and adapting circuts  'borrowed' left and right. One of my major 
info sources was the ARRL yearly handbook for tube pinouts and tube 
characteristics . In a way I think that those were the golden years 
since technology was still within the grasp of everyone who was ready to 
read a bit. One could look at a schemetic of a HF rig and know exactly 
how it worked before buying it. Try that now!!
I had a geat time and I'm glad I still remember enough  to play around 
with my boatanchors.
