The article says he wrote the Scratchi pieces beginning in 1947
but they began much earlier. I think 1947 is the date "Radio" magazine
became "CQ". Even the cut drawing of "Scratchi" is the same. Floyd
would have been in his early twenties when Scratchi began. I think I
have some war-time issues of "Radio", I will see if I can find them and
if "Scratchi" was discontinued during our war with Japan.
