[Milsurplus] [Vintage-Military-RADAR] Postage Stamp Mica Question - SOLVED

[C.Whitaker]

de WB2CPN
Once, while in a friend's house, in the company of him and
his dear wife, I was teaching electronics, and I unconsciously
looked at a resistor, and counted on my fingers:

Bad Boys R--- Our Young Girls, But Violet G---- Willingly.
The lady winced, and I never did that again.

That was uncouth back then.
That's been around a long long time.

Then in telephone work, on cable pairs, it was nicer:

Build Our Great Big School.

Blue Orange Green Brown Slate, for you newcomers.
