The Radio Gods seem to be directing my attention to my hometown: New York City.
I was recently in the city, observing the placement of various IBEW - WYKSYKDS stickers. And as I work on my old Hammarlund HQ-100 I note that both the HQ-100 and I may have been produced on Manhattan island at about the same time (me definitely, but the HQ-100 may have been built in Mars Hill NC).
This morning Jim W4JED reminded me that Limor Fried, MIT Engineer and founder of Adafruit, is producing a lot of amazing electronics items right in NYC, on Manhattan Island, down in Chelsea. Thanks Jim. FB Limor!
Watch the above video. I really liked the sign Limor has above her workbench:
"TRUST YOUR TECHNOLUST."
Indeed. Back to the HQ-100. This IS a case of technolust. I'm not quite satisfied with the alignment. And it bugs me. I technolust for perfect alignment. (Steve Silverman -- I think we should add technolust to the SS lexicon.)
"TRUST YOUR TECHNOLUST" reminds me of the original Hak5 crew and some of the cool techno projects they did in the early aughts of 2k. This video has been popping up in my YT feed, guess this means I must watch it :)
