A very interesting site for those that remember these...

This is just an fyi to let those who may not know that I manage a website to
present
information on Kits. It covers Heathkit, Allied Knight Kits, Eico, Precise,
EMC, Paco, Dynaco
and Stancor.
For over four years, it has been hosted on QSL.NET. For several reasons, I
have decided to
host under its own domain.
My intention is to document by picture, specifications and schematics all of
the kits
offered by these companies. My goal is to cover nearly everything they sold
so it is not
focused just on Ham radio. I am also going to try to document as much of the
history of these
companies as I can. Why? Fifteen reasons of which the first four follow:
1. To help fellow hobbyists understand what may be available in the used
market to
enhance their enjoyment of their hobbies.
2. Bring a tear while you remember that kit you built and still wish you had
<g>.
3. As far as I can tell, it hasn't been done.
4. I'm crazy.
I would appreciate hearing comments both good and bad. If you have any
material
that you would like to contribute to the site, I'd be happy to include it.

Hope you find it useful,
