SolderSmoke - The Book!
In response to popular demand, "SolderSmoke -- Global Adventures in Wireless Electronics" is now available as an e-book for Amazon's Kindle.
Here's the site:

For the print version:
For shipping from a printer in the U.S. (probably better for N. American buyers) Click here: SolderSmoke USA Version
-------------------------
For shipping from a printer in the UK, Spain, or the USA (probably better for UK and other European buyers)
Click here: SolderSmoke EU Version
The two versions are identical, except for a minor difference in the paper used. That's why the prices are a bit different.

My favorite band is ACE and the golden voice of Paul Carrack. How long has this been going on has nothing to do with what you think it does.
ReplyDeleteActually, that's a great question because much can be interpreted from one's choice of band. 17 Meters implies that you're somewhat non-conformist and creative, but not so given to flights of fancy as those who prefer 12 meters.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she would appreciate this.
