From here it looks like a page cut into a dozen parts with scissors
and pasted back together in random order.
I can see where you might get that idea -- one of the pages is a "collage" of
various photos (gear shots, CCC station pix, catalog snippets, etc.). But the
background framing makes it clear that's what you're seeing. Yes, the photos
do take a while to load, but the final result is excellent. FWIW, I'm running
IE and 1024 pixel screen.
As for GIF format, I DLed the blown-up copy of the transmitter schematic (wow,
a separate driver-multiplier stage back in those MOPA days). As a JPG it was
110 KB. I converted it to GIF and it went down to 13KB! Almost 10 to 1.
As for the gear -- I got a kick out of the TX with the plate caps on the output
coils for changing band taps. Neat idea. Luckily the power interlock switch
is also very clearly shown :-)
Now Ibelieve I owe some test eqpt shots -- Mike K.
