NOTE: If you have less than 5 feedbacks, contact me before bidding.

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!

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.

The dude's feedback is 99.9% positive after 9 years of biz.
He buys low and sells high. Sounds like good biz to me - WTF
is wrong with that? You have some kind of problem with
capitalism?

What's WRONG is that Count Ludwig von Happymeal thinks he's John
Madden giving play-by-play without a Telestrator and posting it to
said four groups.

You're wasting your breath, my lord. The thief Bret Ludwig is probably
the last American Communist. He doesn't believe in intellectual
property (he stole mine and others' right out in public and bragged
about it, he stole from Apple and bragged about it) or profit (see
below); he is a zenophobe (public namecalling of non-whites -- see any
post from the thief Ludwig). He believes in central planning (see his
posts on what the government should do to protect incompetent American
workers). He believes all these wanky policies should be enforced out
of the barrel of a gun. Like I said, Ludwig is the last American
Communist. He and Iveson are birds of a feather.

They're both dumb enough to believe that they should be in charge of
the central direction of the state, rather than the hidden hand of
Adam Smith as wielded by you and me, the butcher, the baker and the
candlestickmaker. Need one ask who espouses the more successful
policy, judging only by the results of the proponents, in this case
you and I, both with observable achievements, versus those two
permanent losers.

To which the thief Bret Ludwig's entire response is:

Not so cocky about stealing from me now, are you, you little scumbag?

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

That's what happens when you buy something sold for much less than
it is worth because the seller either doesn't know or doesn't care and
you turn around and resell it for what it is worth. At least what it's
worth to someone.

You act like that is something new or totally dishonest. If he is
purposely misrepresenting what he is selling that is one thing, but if
it is an honest representation and someone is willing to pay his price,
there is nothing wrong with that. People in the antique business have
done it for hundreds of years.

Now I don't want to pop your rose covered bubble, but you realize
that Wal-Mart buys a crap pile of stuff from China for pennies on the
dollar and then resells it to you for probably ten times what they paid
for it, right? Unless you can show something genuinely dishonest that
this guy is doing, then your call out is out of line.

1) Buy low, sell high.
2) The worth of a thing is what it will bring.
3) Caveat emptor.


Works for me.

Sounds like someone is jealous they're not making money! I got a ton of 2
way radio equipment once, was going to use it - kept it here for a year and
then said to hell with it. I paid $10 total - and that was to have it hauled
here - I didn't have a truck then. I placed all on E-bay and made close to
$1000. "I" didn't set the prices - they did. I start my bids out at $1. As
for his "taxes" - that is between him and the IRS. I'm sure they've got much
bigger fish to fry. That guy is doing a normal business. Absolutely nothing
wrong with it.
