As we
all know, the technology of amateur radio has advanced a great deal
over the years from the days of spark gap transmitters and crystal
detectors to microprocessors and surface-mount devices. In the
rush of modernization, it is easy to forget the roots of amateur radio
and the technology that made today's advances possible.
With
the advent of the internet and the world-wide web, it has been possible
to archive much of the history of this technology so that it is easily
accessible for study and experimentation. It is possible to locate the
old schematics and parts and recreate the circuits of yesterday that
served us so well, and in the process gain a better appreciation of
where we are today.
In the spirit
of this endeavor, this website will attempt to provide some links to
the rich heritage of amateur radio.
