The Old Folks Home

Pile it on, Ron! Hopefully, perchie can have a breather.

For the health plan of course. I think on the list is gastric bypass? The tumor issues were found during the health check for that if I am remembering correctly.

Getting a health plan is very important.

It turns out now that several of the inspectors are using the video footage of the previous property in their real estate agent education seminars. Oops!

Lucky you found out in time!!!

They make some of the tubes still because of restoration projects like your hubby....

I'm so old I remember tube testing machines at the store and all the common tubes in the storage area under the tester. Can't really fix your TV or radio anymore. Toss it and give the Chinese more money.

Be easy to setup a Faraday Cage to protect it too.... Keep it and the generator inside.

Take care deb on your road to recovery. Pretty soon you'll be writing on here about your new flock at your desert home.

Switching and gear like that. Again Give Heath kit a try. They are online still they were bought by Radio Shack and Radio Shack was bought by Tandy...

My dad was an inventor... I spent many hours hanging with him in junk shops looking for Electronics components. So My ennd is just a GoFer... Give me components and I can put it together...

Every time I see a old console tv for sale in excellent shape I want to buy it. Would like to pick one up sometime before they disappear. Remember the one we had as kids if the screen was messed up, just had to smack the top and all good! Lol.

Yep..... Dad and I built our first color TV.... He built a really nice Ocilloscope for his Laboratory too. That was when TVs werent built with automatic DeGausing technology... So he built his own DeGausing tool for aligning the guns in the TV... It was awesome to watch. A coil of wire x diameter and y coils with a rehostat.... He would dial it up the field would generate and he would pull the DeGouser away....

Now there are no more CRT s DeGousing is not necessary.
