See the thread about ending your bus wires Fred. There are many suggestions in there. Fluxing and Wicking = FUN!
Jack, remember the crystal radio sets you could make that looked like a rocket ship? They had an ear piece so you could hear one and if you were lucky maybe two AM stations.
I actually made an AM broadcasting station once from a kit. Don't think it was a Heath, but something else. It broadcast on 640 or 1240, the Civil Defense channels, who remembers those, but only for about a 1/4 mile. It was cool to bring my date home and listen to the music I had playing on the radio parked out front of the house. It was a much simpler time back then remember and we had simpler tastes in what was actually fun. I also made a clock radio from a kit that worked all through my high school years and on into college until the tubes died and there were no more available.
I think I just rambled on a bit there. Sorry, but at times it is good to reminisce.
