Re: New solid state pictures





Hi Mike,

Thankyou for your kind comments about the web page.

I had a poulsen arc oscillator on my list of things to try sometime when I
get time !  It sounds very interesting and challaging despite the apparent
initial simplicity of the schematic.  I don;t know of anyone else who has
attempted this so please let us know how it works.

							Cheers,
