Show and Tell

bullet

Phil Bliss installed his home-brew radio with the "space-charged" tubes into the cabinet of the Intercom unit that he had won in a previous donor auction, and brought it to show.  He also brought an adapter that he had made to use inexpensive 1Q5 tubes in place of expensive WD-11 tubes.  Finally, Phil asked if anyone had any reproduction instruction cards to fit into the lid of an Ariola or Radiola III.

bullet

Phil Baker brought a Heathkit signal tracer that he had bought from Fred Geer.

bullet

Gerry Lukach brought a home-brew variac that would work with either AC or DC voltages.  (Currently, though, the bridge rectifier is bad, so it now only works with AC.)  He also brought a 1946 Philco table radio with a built-in slot-loading phono that he had won with a $10.49 e-Bay bid.

Raffle of Donation Items

The only donor auction item was a clock radio.
