Never solder on a unit that is turned on.


Maybe it's just the filament voltage on.  I have worked on my rig many times relying the tube filaments for a light source.  Just  make sure the HV is off!

Thanks...and I know what you're thinkin; "too much free time" etc. (which is true) but actually I'm pretty fast with Photoshop. And if it only takes a few minutes to generate this much hilarity - well, what the hell!  Cheesy

You guys are killing me!   That Tron photo shop is a scream!   I had missed this thread somehow until now.

Yeah, the suits and vests of yesteryear.  My uncle who grew up in the Great Depression once told me that as soon as a young lad was old enuff, his father would take him down to the local men's store and they would get him the best suit they could afford. He said they lived in this one suit until it shined.

And best of all, he said, "a man was considered a BUM unless he wore a suit in public".  [Even the bums wore suits... :lol: ]

Looking at the older 1920's-50's pictures, even when working on construction, guys still wore quasi-suits, but usually with overalls over them... gads...

I think the photo of Mr. Henery Yelar does not exhibit the proper forum and decorum of this website. The photo of Mr. Henery Yelar in the tux is more appropriate.... klc

By request...microphonium added to Tron pic, reload to see. And copy away if you want it for a qsl or whatever.

Below, another one from my files. Untampered with. I wonder where in "Boston" these guys are? Waltham? Notice the cool BLACK CRACKLE gear.

Joe,
     The "Timtron" pic is one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It should be somebody's QSL card!

You'll also notice that EVERYONE wore a hat.  Look at those old photos of city street scenes.  You never see a bareheaded man in an outdoor public space.

Not only did you need a suit but you were still nobody if you had no middle initial.

You can't tell in the picture because those guys are  facing away from the viewer, but I'll bet they are wearing neckties (except for the one dressed in the Navy uniform).

Yeah, but I'll bet the Navy guy is wearing a neckerchief with those 'Cracker Jacks'! (Ask any Swabbie, they know Smiley )
