I just checked the reflector and there are 87 members with 6 or so
subscribing in the last 5 days. Pretty good, for a site largely focussed
on ONE homebrew receiver from 40 years ago. I'm surprised that there 
are still so many people out there with the receivers, have the parts
still stashed in the closet, or at least remember the articles and took
an interest in building it. Maybe that "age group" reaching retirement 
(with supposed spare time) will refuel the interest.

I do want to expand the reflector to include other homebrew "glow in the 
dark" tube receivers, transmitters, and transceivers to get the activity 
level up. Still waiting for someone to say they have a DCS-500 from 
the same time period (in the early 60s ARRL Handbook). That looked
like a pretty good one too.

Hi Kees...

Thanks for having me aboard!

What's the exact number of subscribers exactly, anyway...? I'm curious as
to
how many "...practioners of the black art" of receiver-building still
remain
among us! Hi Hi

I've built a total of only TWO in my Ham career---a mid-60's style dual
conversion superhet (a souped-up "Mate For The Mighty Midget", really), &
a
1929-style 4-tube regenerative.
