[Lowfer] Thank you Pete!

[Peter Cranwell]

I'm happy to do it.

Ken & I were friends & I'm glad to pass along his work.  I only wish I could
find issue#1 which was the one I proofed.

As far as Tektronix scopes.  I had a local friend drop off two of them. I
managed to get them both operational & gave one to another friend.   Most
problems seem to be power supply as techs turn them on in the morning & let
them bake all day.

What model Tektronix do you have?   I stripped an unworkable Tektronix,
removing all the useable parts.  If you need any bridge rectifiers,
transistors I may have them.  I have a few knobs etc.

Good luck.

Pete

The LF Scrap Book has been one of those magical mythical things for me. I've

seen references to it, but it seemed unlikely I'd ever see or touch a copy.
I 
always secretly harbored hopes I'd come across a copy some day, but at the 
same time was careful not to get my hopes up because I thought the odds were

one in a million.

A lot of times we cruise along and forget that it's the magic of radio that 
makes the hobby interesting but it's the people we meet along the way that 
often make it fun. That's been hammered home for me this week with some very

good "horse trading" of equipment where both of us came out feeling like we 
really owed the other one at least a little bit to make it a fair trade, a 
guy going out of his way to help me acquire (at a very reasonably price) a 
vintage Tektronix o'scope (actually a pair of them) that I was longing for, 
and now a copy of something I've wanted to read for years.

Good things do come in threes sometimes. But I sincerely appreciate them all

and wanted to say thanks to Pete for what he's shared.
