    Dating for Fedora Loungers?

    Tattoos or no, the real questions are whether the individuals are familiar with the works of R.F. Burns, and can they explain the mechanism of Armstrong Rotation.

    Movie screengrabs merged thread

    I did a little extra looking, but no joy. It does seem odd.

    How does one properly tie a wind trolley?

    You have resolved a problem which I have not yet confronted.

    Do You Own an AMT3000?

    Interesting. You can go to the famous auction site right now and find oodles of unlawful radio devices, many capable of wretched interference with legitimate devices. Too bad Mr. Ryan lacked the clout of the Chinese. I guess by properly assembling "clean" transmitters he brought us all to the...

    Stetson 100 Mint w/Tan Presentation Case

    The Stetson 150 is the stuff of legend. I have a locking metal box made of pure unobtanium waiting for mine. Our Mennonite bakery is very close to the dairy farm that produces the most excellent cheeses. I need to put on a Steston and go shopping. (See how I kept it on topic ?)

    Stetson 100 Mint w/Tan Presentation Case

    Ja ! Ganz richtig, mein Herr ! It's always corrupted as "Dutch" from "Deutsch." Our Mennonite buddies here are of German extraction, naturlich, and boy can the ladies bake !!!

    Stetson 100 Mint w/Tan Presentation Case

    President Eisenhower was descended from the Pennsylvania Dutch family Eisenhauer, as it was originally spelled. The owner of this One Hundred was probably a cousin from a branch of the family which did not change the spelling. Lovely hat in a good home !

    My "new" Radio

    I should have commented that this IS a really good way to go on radios so equipped. Been there, done that, and with success. :D

    Do You Own an AMT3000?

    I'm not voting - at this time ... With coverage such as this you should get a small mixer and a good microphone and do some scheduled programming. Put a network feed on the internet, others can broadcast it, and it's the WEAF experiment all over again ! I'm playing with a Talking House...

    My "new" Radio

    I trust it will be back for the winter DX season. Nothing beats these things for old-fashioned audio fun. I might add that your particular beast is very well-preserved for its age.

    My "new" Radio

    That would be much fun ! I note that there is an external antenna connection on the GE 100 for DXing on those cold winter nights. There is less worth listening to nowadays, but I never cease to be amazed at how well the tube sets perform. It isn't the radio's fault that the programming is...

    My "new" Radio

    I just looked at the schematic and it doesn't. I don't think I'd want a radio with a 'hot" chassis and a phono jack unless I had all of my affairs in order. :eek: Now playing through a phono oscillator off the pod presents no issues.

    My "new" Radio

    GE 100 Nice device ! You may only need to have the power supply filter capacitors replaced, though I think the "drill" is to replace all the capacitors. There aren't that many of them. Service information and schematic diagram can be found at the Nostalgia Air site. This is an AC/DC set -...

    Akubra Campdraft

    Eine kleine Hatmusik The Campdraft in Glen Grey would go nicely with my #1 housecat, Earl Grey. To celebrate July 4 and a great-looking Akubra, here's Glen Gray and the Casa Loma Orchestra : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5VePEal2DE&feature=related

    College Football!

    :D Well, thanks for mentioning Coach Fedora. Why isn't he wearing a domepiece ? The Stetson people ought to approach him. He seems to be a class guy and his endorsement would carry some weight.

    WWII Espionage

    Question for the Experts One of my well-read friends advised that a new work of historical fiction sets forth the notion that the Germans in WWII had far greater success with their espionage in the U.S. than Director Hoover let on. Is there any recent scholarly work, perhaps based on freshly...

    Akubra Campdraft

    Sure thing. The Fed IV appears proper for you; no question that a CD would too. Pick a color, any color !
