"..I would like to see streaming video for the assembly
instructions..."
I know quite a few hams that are still in DOS mode and this would not be an
advantage putting forth the effort for that market. I am sure with all the hub bub
on this the efforts toward making ready to ship and standard docs would be the
better way to go. IMHO

> The announcement that the Daguerreotype "requires no knowledge of

> "Daguerreomania" became a craze overnight. An interesting account of
