[Elecraft] Resistor Color Code Guide

[W3FPR - Don Wilhelm]

Rich,

My 8 year old grandson grasped the resistor/capacitor color code in about 15
minutes of sorting resistors.  Buy one of those resistor 'grab-bags' and
sort them - when you are finished, you should have a good recall of the
color code.

73,
Don W3FPR
