[Lowfer] Lowfer history

[Steve Dove]

Wow!  C&H Sales!

A lifetime ago (late '70s) I lived for a while up in Sierra 
Madre and C&H was a weekly adventure.  I scored a Rohde und 
Schwartz SWOB2 (hands up who knows what that was!) but the 
real treasure was a Bird wattmeter mounted on a 19" rack panel 
engraved "Spacecraft Power".  As cool as it gets.

         Cheers,

                 Steve      W3EEE
