[AMRadio] Book WANTED...!

[Merz Donald S]

I purchased this book earlier this year and have really enjoyed it. I am about 90% through it. The only negative comment that I will make is that some references in the book are not accurate. At one point, the author talks about a photo of Don's RME receiving stuff on the inside front cover of December 1957 QST. I looked for this and couldn't find it. I checked several years in both directions and I looked for RME in the advertiser's index and found nothing. So maybe it was CQ? 

The other error I noticed is that the author talks about the Berlin Airlift taking place in 1961--oops--it was actually 1948. 

But these are small nits. Any ham will enjoy this book. It would make a great Christmas gift for a ham friend who likes to read.

Last I checked, Ham Radio Outlet was still carrying this.

Hi Everyone,

As Christmas fast approaches, all this AWA 1929 QSO Party stuff & homebrew
retro-superhets has me waxing for a nostalgic, good read over the coming
holidays...

To this end, I wonder if anyone might have a good, reasonably-priced copy of
Jan Perkins' book on DON WALLACE (W6AM) available for sale at this time...?
