Was thinking about this subject today, wondering what the age spread
might be for people who have built Elecraft kits. Built mine at age
50.
My Andrew(KD5LAN), age 11, and I just finished a solder practice
session. Says it is fun and wants to build a kit. This has been as
much fun as building a kit myself.
Thanks to Don Brown for the boards for Andrew to practice on.
Andrew Madsen brings back memories, as I built my first transmitter at
age 16. It was in a Popular Science magazine. Used a 50C5 and was
built on a piece of plywood with finishing nails as the contact
points. Most of the components were scavenged from old TV;s.
