Turns out the scope he was going to loan me had a very small screen (2 x 2.5 inches). It was intended for rack mounting along with a bunch of other similar scopes. What Don is looking for is a full sized, the bigger the better, scope for demonstration purposes. Some of the newer scopes can even be fed to a monitor. That might be nice. Alternatively, I should think live video through our projector might be a good approach if the scan lines are not an issue. I think Don is working on this angle.

It is available on order from any Polk County or Lakeland Library: http://bookflavor.com/world-ham-radio-19011950-a-social-history-richard-a-ba rlett-0786429666 Read the reader reviews near the bottom. Here is the intro by the publisher: George The World of Ham Radio, 1901-1950: A Social History by Richard A. Barlettworld-ham-radio-19011950-a-social-history-richard-a-barlett-078642966 6 During the first fifty years of the twentieth century, ham radio went from being an experiment to virtually an art form. Because of the few government restrictions and the low monetary investment required, the concept of ham radio appealed to various people. More than just a simple hobby, however, ham radio required its operators to understand radio theory, be able to trace a schematic and know how to build a transmitter and receiver with whatever material they might have available. With the advent of World War II and the increased need for cutting-edge communications, the United States government drew upon the considerable knowledge and skill of these amateur ham radio operators, validating the fact that ham radio was here to stay. This book explores the history of ham radio operators, emphasizing their social history and their many contributions to the technological development of worldwide communications. It traces the concept of relays, including the American Radio Relay League, from contacts as close as 25 miles apart to operators anywhere in the world. The book highlights the part played by ham radio in many of the headlined events of the half century, especially exploration and aviation "firsts". The ways in which these primarily amateur operators assisted in times of disaster including such events as the sinking of the Titanic and the 1937 Ohio River flood, are also examined. http://bookflavor.com/images/amazon.pngView on Amazon From: George Mann [mailto:gwmann at verizon.net] Sent: Sunday, June 19, 2011 5:30 PM To: 'LakelandARC at yahoogroups.com' Subject: A great book review for radio books of all sorts Give this site a quick view: http://bookflavor.com/#!radio Hope to see everyone at field day, if only to drop by for a quick "eyeball" visit to see how we are doing! 73 de George KJ4UW -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
