:I just wanted to say thanks to all of you. I hope I spell these right. Dermody,Edd, Berg and the rest. You have all been so nice to this 45 year old man who loves to repair those AA5 radios. Youve never gotton upset when I asked questions that were say STUPID? I repaired another yesterday, and didnt even have to ask any stupid questions. Your help is invaluble. Along with other forms of training. Thank you again, I will return later in the day with a question about solid state radios... See it never ends, but I really wanted to say what a great board this is for help.
Hey, I remember being ignorant and asking questions about how to fix radios, too. Don't thank me, how else are you going to learn?

Hi,
I think that I was the last generation that didn't have television for a baby sitter. I lived in Augusta, GA, and we didn't get TV until I was in the seventh grade. I lived in a house about 2 miles south of the Augusta National, and there was the country club within walking distance. We played golf, football baseball basketball. We played from dawn to dark on weekends, and in the summer when school was out. We made crystal sets, mooched enough stuff off of telephone men that we had our own little telephone network. We bugged radio repair shops, we got chemicals and made rockets and bombs. We shot BB guns and later .22s. We had no television and no computer games. We were never bored, seldom dishonest. I think televison was the worst thing to hit the human racd.

::Hey Jesse,Pat yourself on the back for still having the ambition and desire to learn at our advanced age(I'm 43).I'm disgusted by how many people I know our age who willingly give up on learning and become television zombies for lack of ambition or even simple curiosity.Good for you,my friend.

Negative on the flannel shirts, but two out of three ain't bad. By the way, with a name like Darlene, are you male or female?
