This isn't 1906 either, a time when practically ALL radios, amateur or commercial, had to be "built from scratch." Today, if you have the "scratch," you can CHOOSE to either build a radio from components (dozens of major parts vendors) or buy them ready-made, ready-to-use. If you look at "shack photos" in the ham publications from the last half century of issues, you will see MOST of them contain ready-built radio equipment. In my career experience I've learned to not only DESIGN radio equipment of many types but have learned all the steps to fabricate them, test them in the lab, test them in the field. But, that's "hands-on engineering responsibility" and is NOT a requirement for an amateur radio license nor is it a requirement to use radios. I can - and have - done just that..."building from scratch" but only because I WANTED to do so for myself. Most of my radio-electronics equipment is ready-built, not because I "can't do it" (I can) but because it is much, much easier for me to do so. Amateur radio is a HOBBY, not a union, craft, or guild. Nowhere is there a die-hard "necessity" to retain ALL the "traditions" such as "building from scratch" as it had to be done a hundred years ago. Now, if you want to "build from scratch" totally, you will have to learn to SUCK all the air out of the tubes you build for yourself (honoring the "tradition"). That's rather difficult (truly, vacuum sucks)...but much, much easier than first creating ultra-pure silicon and then doping the microscopic areas on it to become the solid-state device you need. [sorry you can't build "spark" transmitters...those being forbidden in these modern times unlike a hundred years ago] Heh heh, I was born not too far from Galena, IL, where the vital "crystals" for the first crystal receiving sets were obtained. My first "radio" was a Philmore crystal set KIT with the galena crystal already mined and mounted in a piece of lead (circa 1946). :-) Whatever. Try to remain one of the "higher class" of amateurs, Jeff, don't admonish everyone who doesn't share your opinions. It's fine and dandy you are a rapid-fire morseman, thanks to the USCG. However, the USCG isn't amateur radio. Neither is the University of Hawaii where you "lecture" students at a community college. Morsemanship necessity for federal permission to operate amateur equipment below 30 MHz is on the way OUT. Try to accept that. Don't try to teach your grandmother to suck eggs, either. No 73 for you, ...and none for you either. shrug Good luck on your efforts to ENFORCE TRADITION and bringing back the home-built spark transmitter a la 1906... Sincerely, |

Those things and their discharges can do quite a bit of broadband RF pollution. |
