[R-390] Nolan Lee etc.

Thu, 5 Jun 2003 11:12:18 -0400

Nolan Lee posted some of the most informative and technically correct pos=
tings about R-390A's that I've ever read.  These were often laced with hi=
s offbeat humor, which added to the readability of the postings -- and hi=
s use of the English language was talented and skillful.  His contributio=
ns to this reflector are substantial, IMHO.  He gave us a step by step ex=
planation of what he did to rebuild one of his R-390A's, a very detailed =
master list of capacitors for the R-390A, and many postings rich with ins=
ight and depth.

Nolan's humor was top flight, and seemingly misunderstood by some.  He is=
 certainly undeserving of any gratuitous and unsubstantiated comments.
73's,

Subject: [R-390] Nolan Lee etc.

I saw that, a pretty decent webpage. Someone told me that the picture of =
him is 20 years old, maybe more.

Looked at the archives, his main claim to fame seems to be a 3TF7 ballast=
 tube that has lasted 3 bazillion hours, along with cat meat, survival ge=
ar and redneck stories. I bet if one were to get around him, you could pr=
obably hear "Dueling Banjos" playing in the background.

DX'ing Since 1957
