I combine shipping to save money, never a packaging or handling fee,
and as close to actual shipping as I can get.

From 1942 comes this classic radio broadcasting "how to" book which


has a lot of neat information, pictures and even fold out schematics
of vintage transmitters (RCA mostly, like the Type 1-K; 5-E; 250K)
plus much other cool radio stuff.

Fundamentals of Radio is from 1942 with a number of writers and
contributors, with 400 pages, hardback, and in solid, used condition.
Does have a child's penciled drawings on the first and last blank
pages...a future Picasso? The good parts are unmarked.

In any case, with 400 pages, you are bound to learn a lot, and those
fold out schematics are not easy to find!

USA shipping is $4 Air or $10 Global Priority Air to most countries
overseas.

Check my auctions for equally interesting items!

Overseas bidders are welcome, but please contact me if you have less
than 5 feedbacks before bidding.

Check my feedback, bid with confidence!

Paypal preferred....or check, money order. Not responsible for items
once they leave here, but they seem to make it about 99.8% of the
time! All sales final unless I misdescribe something.

For what it's worth department: I have been involved in audio
recording for 25 years, and have had a vintage, tube equipped
recording studio for 20 years, which is mostly sold now. In that time
I have come to appreciate the great, thick, full sound of vacuum tube
and discrete "Class A" transistor circuits. The fact is, tube
equipment, especially the vintage stuff, does sound better....maybe
someday digital will approach it, but don't hold your breath!

Let's look for these:

Of course I'm writing the IRS to make sure they know to expect Mike's
check for his taxes too. Just trying to be helpful.



Sounds like material you should read, Bret, considering your knowledge
level.
