- Another thought - perhaps the folks at the FCC got tired of hearing the
- phone ring and being badmouthed everywhere and pulled folks from other areas
- to man the terminals for a few days to get rid of the backlog. Or maybe
- they brought their kids in? Anyway, it appears that the backlog is breaking
- loose...

-
- Yeah, genius though he may have been, he was also as crazy as a shit house
- rat. One of the better books I have on him is a collection of his writings.
- Once you've read what he had to say in his own words, you can see why most
- people thougt him to be a crackpot.
-
- Remember, he also came up with the idea of free energy to the masses with
- his large resonant transformer project. Just imagine that if he had managed
- to finish it, there would not be radio communications as we know it. Period!
-
- As far as the rift between Tesla and Edison, that was partly due to Edison's
- "Not-Invented-Here" attitude and partly due to Tesla's unusualy firm belief
- of his own infalibility. (Hummm, sort of like the discussions on r.r.a.p)
-
- Tesla, genius or madman? Both!
-
- 73 es GM from Jeff
-
- For what it's worth, even as I type (well, sorta...it's only 0730 local) the annual
- International Tesla Conference is going on right here in Colorado Springs. Wayne
- even mentioned it in his August editorial.
-
- They also had a short bit about it on the local news last night...judging from the
- appearance of some of the participants (cf. my postings in .policy a few months
- back about the appearance of hams at Dayton), it looks like some of them are
- trying to follow in Nikola's footsteps :-).
-
- 73, Jeff

- Why, is something funny?
- I have one. I liked having the chance to hold it in my hand and play with
- it before I put down some money. I also figured out how to add a hold
- function ( so easy I'm surprised RS didn't do it ). Solid construction,
- metal case, does what I need it to.
- I need to get in and play with some other 'test points' and see what they do.
- I paid $90 plus tax using a coupon.
