Lebanon's First Radio Website

I found this site through Paul VK3HN.  He took the AM detector circuit for his AM receiver from one these Lebanese homebrew radios.  

There is some really great information on this wonderful website.  It has been online for some 20 years -- I wish I had found it earlier.  The author shares his Knack story -- this is a wonderful example of the International Brotherhood of Electronic Wizards (IBEW).

And he has very cool schematics, really well done.  Click on image to enlarge:
