AMMETER ADAPTOR
- Used for measuring AC amperage drawn by a radio under test. Use
with your normal VOM, VTVM that isn't capable of measuring AC Amps.
Installed in a Navy Blue minibox, radio plugs directly into the box and
the box plugs into the AC source. Two terminals where your meter plugs
in. Reads 0-1 Amp AC, Fused. $12.50
MY LATEST PRODUCT IS THE "SLO-START"
KIT, a slow turn on device combined
with an AC ammeter. The "Slo-Start"starts at 60-70
volts and ends up at about 10% less than the incoming line voltage after
90 seconds or so - a great feature when working on old radios. The
line voltage is read on an included meter until a load is attached.
Afterwards the same meter reads the output voltage. The amperage
is read on a separate meter on the lowest scale equating to 1 volt=1 amp.
The unit is fused at 1.25 amperes and a spare fuse is included. The
cost is $21.00 POSTPAID, about half of what other units sell for even without
the ammeter option.

CONTACT CLEANER -
My latest
find is a super contact cleaner for copper and brass contacts that you
can mix at home. It consists of OLEIC ACID mixed with standard
Coleman Fuel. Oleic acid is an organic acid found in things like
cocoa and olive oil and not considered dangerous. It is used for
many things in industry ranging from lubricants to cosmetics to food flavorings.
My recommended mix with the Coleman
fuel (naptha) or regular lighter fluid is 5%. You may also add acetone
to speed up the drying time. Due to shipping restictions I cannot
supply the fuel but I make the oleic acid available for you to make up
a one quart supply. Try it, I'm sure you will be surprised. - $7.00
Postpaid.

like to "return to the thrilling days of yesteryear?" Here is a kit with
everything you need to build a
Regenerative
Radio - tube socket, tube, regeneration control, wire,

etc. You will need to provide a chassis or breadboard, tuning cap of your
choice, headphones, a "D" cell and five "9 volt" transistor batteries
to make it work. This is a duplicate of one I built from a Magazine Article
in 1947. Includes the original Article - $23.95.
The original Article included an amplifier following the detector. This
is the tube, tube socket, plate load resistor, coupling capacitor and the
grid resistor to add the second stage. It really makes a difference in the
volume. Will run a speaker (with output transformer) on local stations. Build
it with the radio or add it later - $12.00.
