Here's a nice picture of me with
a friend
Ok, so this isn't a current
picture of me and my wife.
It is, in fact, a picture taken
in 1948. I no longer have
any of the things shown here,
including the wife. We were
divorced in 1964 but remain
friends.

But it
was
my meager ham
shack in those
days. Was my receiver a surplus
military BC 348?
I'm sure someone can tell me as
I don't remember.
And I'm embarrassed to say I don't
recall what
I was using to transmit with.
There is a mike there
even though I think I was using
more than
voice. One thing I certainly
do remember though
and that is building the power
supply.
Later I obtained an AT-18.
That is something I wish I still owned.
You can take a look at an AT-17
by clicking on a terrific site of currently
owned and operated vintage equipment
that belongs to Bill Smith, a member
of our Marin Amateur Radio Club.
I am also webguy for qsl.net/w6sg
Naturally,
I think w6sg is a good looking page. Give it a click!
In addition I have my own guitar teaching page
noel's
Gittips (get it?...I teach the
stuff)
Yes, this is the same guy as above. It's amazing how much different
things
look in color.
