    I always wondered why the Tiki is so angry, then it dawned on me. All that alcohol can't compensate for getting those little umbrellas stuck in his head!

    Hello. I have a lot of reading to do before I will be posting much but hope to hve some fun and contribute according to abilities. Electronics has always been good to me. It's a healthy and wholesome activity for today's nuclear family. The station here is always evolving and I try to keep things appropriate, for example when AM is used, as much of that path is through tubes as possible, and the reverse is true for digital experiments which are at the other end of the scale. In between, technology is mixed and even equipment is sometimes fused together to do interesting stuff. I'm as happy working with with large class B modulators as with new semiconductors and SMT layouts. So I hope I can add to the fun here and learn some new stuff.

    Welcome to the Island, Patrick. Belly up to the bar and order yourself the beverage of your choice. And don't settle for any lousy well drinks, go for the top shelf stuff and put it on the Vatican's tab. They never pay it anyhow.

    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Have a shot of gin on me! I just use it to clean up old coils, or make them look cleaner to me at the time.

    Well that's a switch. No one's ever offered the Island Bartender a drink before. Let me mix us up a little something.
    Fresh key limes.
    Sapphire tonic.
    Ice made from imported mountain spring water shipped direct from Asheville NC.
