Thanks Andrew,
I am glad I did it. The more I wrote, the more lost memories came flooding back from my learning days in Amateur Radio.
I suppose I should have described building power supplies and modulators as well but that might have made tha epistle a bit long.
I must admit that I enjoyed the early days more than the mid 70s onwards. "In the days when the world was wide" to quote Henry Lawson.
Nowadays I find WSPR an interesting mode to see the state of the HF bands. It's amazing how little power you need to get around the world, even in the sunspot cycle minimum. I hope to be around when the maxima arrives, who knows?
Cheers
