Hank,

I have no idea what an AA5 is, but if it is a tube type set, you
might
also want to look at Antique Radio supply (www.tubesandmore.com) as they
have some multi-section caps. There is also a vendor call Radio Daze,
but I'm not as familiar with them.



AA5 (All American Five) was a five tube, transformerless, ac or C
powered radio built with a series filament string. A typical tube lineup
was:

35W4 Rectifier
50C5 Audio output.
12BE6 Local oscillator & mixer
12BA6 IF amplifier
12AV6 detector & 1st audio amp.

If you have broadband, your ISP may have a NNTP news server included in

Hey Michael,

I have a comment about your sig. First of all WebTV still exsists? And
second.. My ISP used to provide a NNTP server but unfortunately they don't
any longer. I was a bit angry about that, but I couldn't use it away from
home anyhow. Now I'm using giganews which seems to work ok.
