Hello Friends,
Thank you for the nice mail...Hope you are having a
great wk. end..
Limited here today (Library Busy). Answer in general:
Meter on the way, Knobs on the way...
Give me a wk. or two on other things...Have to plan
things a bit for ship.
Someone asked why I give things away...I do it so
things get used that otherwise might just "go away".
I seldom have fine items anyway...
To illustrate: A wk. ago, saw hugh pile of trash..at
hist. home..(shack) had come out of barn..Stopped and
looked...couldn't find anyone arnd..Was tube amp.
(very lg. the kind w/pref. cover over tubes..) and
J.C. Higgins CB (hugh) heaven knows what else, but I
know the house was occu since abt 1900...Thought would
check next day..Guess what? The city had picked it up
and you know where it goes? To Incinerator and full
separator...In other words , you may be sure, it is
now smushed...Gone forever..So I try to buy little
things I see, and put them back in service if they are
TUBE especially....!After all, there were tubes, and
knobs etc on even this junk..
Last, someone asked what are archives...Maybe a person
knowing more than me will sometime cover it..in any
event...I just put in key words, with "archive" and
find many things...I use r-390 for one, boatanchor
for another, etc. Actually that is prob. the slow way,
but I am basically computer braindead, and it does
work..(eventually).
Also there are a mess of lists of mil. gear you can
try, for information..Very interesting...
Be back next wk..Librarian giving the "out of here"
sign...Gotta go...
John
