[Hallicrafters] Another resource for beginners

[Pagel, Mike]

Several days ago I posed a question about resources for beginners...today I'm sharing a link to a potentially useful tool for newbies.

The 1949 version of the NRI Radio Repair Course is available (PDF) for download at:
http://www.fyrbotlz.com/Downloads.html 

The education provided by the NRI material is far too basic to have value to most of the subscribers on this list, but I expect to gain competence and confidence by taking the course.  I've recapped a half dozen radios, with the SX-101 being the most sophisticated of that small group, but simply swapped caps without really understanding what each one did and why.  

Most hams I know will say that radio theory came easily while they struggled to master the code.  For me, it was the other way around.
