I still have from the 60's an Octal, Nine Pin, and 7 pin Greenly Punch.? Lots of $ then for a kid.

I think over $10 back then.? Lots of chassis with 5U4, 6V6, 6AQ5, ect.

Never to be used again, Valves, we called them Tubes gone like my Generation.

So Sad, and that's the way life goes.? That was a lot of money back then.

Hi John

Guess nowadays more people want to have everything as easy as possible.

Seems that gone are the days of making an aluminium chassis, drilling all the holes for valve holders, front panel, case etc.?

PCB boxes should be very easy for the newcomers to do.

Regards

Lawrence

Well Larry, I guess the times they are achangin'.? Hi.

Methinks that soldering a pc box is the best solution as
it provides good shielding. It is a bit hard to work all the
necessary holes though...it does involve a bit of manual
labor. ;)
