[ARC5] First and Last Q-5er article

[gordon white]

     Thanks for the link to the 73 article. I have downloaded it and 
inserted it back into the issue of 73 where it belongs. Fifty years 
later it refreshed my own memory quite a bit!!

     The technical stuff came mostly from the now late Paul O. Farnham, 
who taught me a lot. Paul was a great receiver engineer and a good 
interview. Helped me understand (I hope) technical points that I was not 
trained in, being a history major at Cornell rather than an engineer. My 
father had graduated from Cornell as an engineer, so I guess I had 
enough of him in me to be interestedin technical subjects. Stood me in 
good stead as a newspaperman in an increasingly technical world. One of 
my major stories, 15 years further on, was radioactive fallout from 
atomic bomb tests.

     The 73 piece has photos of the prototype Command receivers, with 
only two IF stages.
