[R-390] R-390 Digest, Vol 58, Issue 39

[Tisha Hayes]

The best electronics slide rule I ever owned was from my father's
collection. He went through the Cleveland Electronics training program back
in the 70's. I essentially inherited a Pickett N-515-T that served me well
through my university years. I still have the slide rule and am not willing
to part with it (my father became a SK back in '89), it is a personal
heirloom.

There are a few of the N-515-T slide rules on ebay, all going for around $15
(no bidders).  The back side of the slide rule has quite a few useful
calculations in addition to an RLC calculator.

You can search for "Cleveland Institute of Electronics" or Pickett or N-515
or N-500 to find listings.
