Lol.. I'm also an engineer, and at the age of 8 had built an AM radio on a pegboard. At age 14 had built a 40 watt shortwave transmitter.. from old TV parts. Is that your connection of slide rules Arthur? There are about 20 of them [slide rules] in my desk, most for RF and microwave transmission.

Great clips.

I sent those to our engineering department. I'll buy them a beer this Friday afterwork in celebration of last week.

The main one is a sound guy so we talk acoustics sometimes.
